Over the course of 5 days participants will compete for the Grand Prix in the amount of 2000 EUR, with more than a dozen accompanying events, including Friendship Concerts in the whole region. Devoted audiences and beautiful, mostly gothic, settings make them an unforgettable experience.

An ever-important part of the event are workshops and seminars enhancing vocal capabilites of the singers and their conductors, lead by renowned voice clinicians. This year, apart from Individual Coaching (IC) and Evaluation Performance (EP) there will be workshops "Vocal technique – sound – interpretation" lead by Prof. Krzysztof Szydzisz.
