Based in Gdánsk, the Polski Chór Kameralny is one of Europe's top small choirs. The group has a large repertory but emphasizes virtuoso contemporary music and has premiered more than 500 new works. The Polski Chór Kameralny in full, the Polski Chór Kameralny Schola Cantorum Gedanensis, was founded in 1978 by Ireneusz Łukaszewski. He was succeeded in 1983 by his brother, Jan Łukaszewski, who remained its director as of the mid-2020s. An early recording by the choir came with 2006's Józef Swider: Te Deum. Three years later, the group issued the first-ever complete recording of Krzysztof Penderecki's choral music. In 2017, the group issued a recording of motets by Pawel Łukaszewski. The Polski Chór Kameralny returned in 2023 with an album featuring Górecki's spare Church Songs, Op. 84.
