Orliński is a Polish countertenor renowned for his interpretations of Baroque and early classical repertoire, frequently incorporating elements of contemporary music and improvisation into his performances. His style is characterized by vocal agility, expressive ornamentation, and a commitment to historically informed performance practice, alongside a notable stage presence and exploration of gender fluidity within the context of historical roles. He often collaborates with ensembles specializing in period instruments.

The Concertgebouw, opened in 1888, is widely considered one of the world’s most prestigious concert halls. Designed by architect Pierre Cuypers, it's celebrated for its exceptional acoustics, achieved through specific architectural choices including its shoebox shape and the use of brick construction. The hall’s acoustics are not the result of intentional design for acoustics but rather emerged from the building’s structure. Throughout its history, it has been home to the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra (Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest), which maintains a consistent presence there.
