The opening concert of the festival will feature the winner of the chamber ensemble residency competition, who will receive not only the financial prize but also the opportunity to perform a concert which will be live streamed on Polish Radio ‘Dwójka’ and on the internet.
In addition to evening concerts in a variety of ensembles - whether chamber or orchestral - the accompanying events, which are an integral part of the Festival, help to break down barriers to new listeners.
