Ensemble

Why does everyone say that the Ensemble Festival is so unique?

Because it is!

It is a magical time, in an amazing place,

with wonderful people!

This is the shortest summary…

The Ensemble Festival is the joy of creating, working together, workshops for students, concerts, theatre shows, discussions, jam sessions at night, billiards and games, and charades. It is a mixture of the highest concentration, art analysis, working with masters and joyful carelessness. For our audience it is a decent dose of beauty. For students – intensive work, which brings a lot of new knowledge, inspiration and listening skills. How is it possible? The solution is probably in the name of the Festival. Ensemble is simply a team. The Festival is made up of a team of outstanding artists and well-coordinated organizers. Students also come to us every year, and in the evenings we host our audience. This joyful meeting always results in beautiful performances and unforgettable moments. We are waiting for you in an oasis of peace and happiness – the Radziejowice Palace.

The Adventure

The Ensemble Festival is happy to invite students and graduates of Art Schools to take part in this unique artistic adventure for the 21st time. During the Festival you will have opportunity to build new groups and interpret splendid musical and theatre pieces in a company of excellent artists. Effects of your common work will be presented during concerts and performances open to the public at the Radziejowice Palace.

How to apply

Chamber Music
Interpretation Masterclass

During the Festival, we will create groups composed of both Students and Professors. This encourages partnership between recognised musicians and disciples. Such form of cooperation allows discussion on creative interpretation of pieces by people with different experiences and from different cultural backgrounds. Young Musicians will work in small groups accompanied by recognised Professors. Effects of your rehearsals will be presented during six concerts held in the New House of Art in Radziejowice.

Chamber Music Interpretation Masterclass will take place on August 28 – September 9, 2024.

Jazz Masterclass

Marcin Masecki invites you to a workshop on musical improvisation. The formula is open. We will not be limited to one style. We want to draw from jazz, classical, film, folk, dance and all the other histories of which we are a part. We treat improvisation as a natural and organic way of making music, regardless of style. And if we do it in a group it further sharpens our senses beautifully, requiring empathy, the ability to compromise, assertiveness and responsibility.

Under Marcin Masecki’s guidance, the ensemble will spend a week building their identity and preparing for the final concert, where they will present a jointly conceived musical story.

Jazz musicians of all specialities are invited.

Jazz Masterclass will take place on August 31 – September 9, 2024.

Entry deadline with required attachments: May 31, 2024.

We will inform you about recruitment results on the website, the Facebook fanpage and via e-mail till June 16, 2024.

Persons short-listed for participation in the workshops shall pay the entry fee (2000 PLN) until July 15, 2024.
