Born in Tomaszów Lubelski, Poland, Marek Kudlicki began his musical education at the age of five. He then went on to study organ and conducting at the Music Lyceum in Lublin. Continuing his development at the Music Academy in Cracow, he completed his master’s degree with honours after which he went to Austria for post-graduate studies at the Academy of Music in Vienna. Marek Kudlicki established the chamber orchestra “Camerata Polonia” consisting exclusively of Polish musicians living in Austria. This is the only Polish orchestra abroad. Its members are, for the most part, young musicians who have not only proven themselves on their own account as soloists with successes in international competitions, but also as members of other chamber ensembles and orchestras, and as support musicians for well-known orchestras, such as the Vienna Philharmonic, the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and the Radio Symphony Orchestra. “Camerata Polonia” made its first appearance under Marek Kudlicki’s direction in a gala concert on October 2, 2010 for the opening of the “Polish Days in Austria.” This performance was followed by further concerts www.cameratapolonia.at |

… A further bright moment should not be ignored: the marvellous performance of the small orchestra (conductor: Marek Kudlicki), which, from the first note onwards, played with humour and a secure feeling for nuances. (Operetta “The White Horse Inn”) Neue Westfalische Ausgabe, Germany
… One definitely has to mention the performance of the excellent orchestra under the direction of Marek Kudlicki, which managed to play precisely and beautifully, supporting the singers impressively in spite of the unfavourable division of the room-space allotted for the work (Operetta “The White Horse Inn”) Marburger Neue Zeitung, Germany
… The orchestra was well disposed and very well conducted by Marek Kudlicki who understood perfectly how to bring the wonderful colours and exciting rhythms and dynamics contained within the score to life. (Operetta “The Csardas Princess”) Rhein-Neckar-Zeitung, Germany |
