is one of Europe’s leading new music ensembles. This Polish collective of solo singers operates as a unit for special vocal assignments, transcending traditional chamber music. Since 2012, it has set trends in ensemble singing, combining the charisma of avant-garde vocal theatre with the craftsmanship of the British vocal tradition.
Artistic director Piotr Pieron shaped the group’s unique sound, drawing on his experience with world-class ensembles (The King’s Singers, Voces8, Cantando Admont).
proMODERN regularly appears at leading Polish festivals (repeatedly at Warsaw Autumn) and on European stages, from France through England and Italy to Finland. It has given dozens of world premieres and recorded extensively for Polish TV and Polish Radio. The group regularly cooperated with leading orchestras such as the Warsaw Philharmonic, NFM, NOSPR, and Sinfonia Varsovia. In the 2023/2024 season, it was Artist-inResidence at the Szczecin Philharmonic.
The ensemble has won numerous awards, including five Fryderyks for its four studio albums. Gramophone described the group as “a composer’s dream” equipped with an “enormous technical toy-box.”
Through its repertoire, proMODERN promotes Polish culture in Europe and worldwide, leading the native style of ensemble singing. It navigates every contemporary aesthetic with absolute mastery, making the beauty of singing its ultimate priority.
