Chopin Project is an innovative programme featuring transcriptions of Frederic Chopin’s works created by Sabina Meck, Piotr Moss and Leszek Kołodziejski. The untypical line-up, consisting of four cellos, emphasizes the important role of this instrument in the Chopin’s oeuvre. The arrangements not only offer a new sound, but also pay homage to Chopin’s fascination with the cello and allow him to reach a wider audience. PCQ’s repertoire includes mainly works originally composed for cello quartet. It is constantly expanded to include contemporary pieces by Polish and international composers, including Artur Zagajewski, Piotr Moss, and Annelies Van Parys. Most of the new works have been presented on Polish stages for the first time. In 2017, the ensemble’s debut album entitled Discoveries was released. In 2018, at the invitation of the Silesian String Quartet and the CHANDOS label, PCQ recorded Grażyna Bacewicz’s Cello Quartet, and the album with this recording received the Fryderyk 2019 award in the Most Outstanding Recording of Polish Music category.
