RAFAL BLECHACZ
Warsaw Chopin Competition Gold Medalist
is going on his First US Tour
Sunday, May 11 at 7:00 pm in Herbst Theatre, San Francisco
In October 2005, in an electrifying outing this 20 year old Polish
virtuoso swept the field at the 15th International Frederic Chopin
Piano Competition in Warsaw, winning the Gold Medal. He is the first
Pole in 20 years to win this prestigious competition (since Krystian
Zimmerman).
The young artist is Europe's new sensation. His calendar is now
fully booked 2 years in advance and includes more than 120
performances at the major cultural centers of Europe, United States
and the Far East. His concerts sell out weeks ahead of time.
San Francisco concert organizers have created a "Polonia Discount":
tickets, normally $38, will be only $30.
This is available only by phone: 1-415-392-4400.
The patron just has to mention the Polonia Discount to receive it.
Come to celebrate great talent, come to celebrate Poland's day in San Francisco!

Again: "... Poland, have willingly colluded with the Nazis ..."
This article takes up the age-old conundrum of the co-existence
of good and evil - a valid philosophical rumination, but this one
marred by an outright falsehood:
"How could so splendid a church have sponsored the Inquisition
or the trial of Galileo? How could nominally Christian nations,
such as Germany and Romania and Poland, have willingly colluded
with the Nazis in their attempted destruction of the Jewish people."
