The premiere sentimental performance ‘Ecie-pecie’ on the 80^th anniversary of the death of Zygmunt Białostocki will remind us of the somewhat forgotten works of the outstanding composer of the interwar period, born in Białystok, who died in the Warsaw Ghetto.

Between the 15^th and the 23^rd of September, 2023, classical instruments and ensembles will be juxtaposed with new constructions that composers and performers will treat as resounding objects. Many objects will become objectphones - new instruments!

The works of 81 artists will be presented, 42 of whom are associated with Poland. In 12 points on the map of Warsaw, 47 mainstream events, Warsaw Autumn Club and Little Warsaw Autumn will take place. 22 works will be presented for the first time. 5 orchestras, 1 choir, 11 ensembles and 23 soloists will perform. There will be 16 events accompanying the festival.

This year's ‘Warsaw Autumn’ guest festival is the ‘Ad Libitum’ festival: a special concert and a meeting with the creators of the festival will be held on this occasion. And on the 22^nd of September, during another special concert, organized by the Polskie Wydawnictwo Muzyczne, the New Music Orchestra, Agata Zubel, Dorota Adamczak and Michele Marelli will perform under the direction of Szymon Bywalec.
