One hundred years ago, the Japanese government admitted nearly 900 Polish orphans from Siberia to its territory, saving them from imminent death. On the 27th of August, 2022 at 18.00 at the stage of the Feliks Nowowiejski Philharmonic in Olsztyn, a ballet about this touching story, ending with a happy return of children to independent Poland - Polish Siberian Children, will be presented.
The play, directed by Wiesław Dudek and choreographed by Krystyna Frąckowiak and Zofia Czechlewska, will be staged as part of the Polish-Japanese ballet project ‘Young Dance Spirit’. Wiesław Dudek - the originator and director of the project - is a dancer, teacher and founder of the Wiesław Dudek Spirit of Dance Foundation.
The music setting for the upcoming performance was prepared by Marek Ciepierski and Miho Kurihara. In their arrangement, we will hear the music of J.I. Paderewski, H. Wieniawski, M. Karłowicz, F. Chopin, K. Szymanowski, Hirai, Hisaiashi, Yamada and others.
