Interpretation Masterclass
Throughout the Festival, we will create teams comprising both students and professors. This fosters collaboration between recognized musicians and their disciples. Such a cooperative approach allows for creative discussions about interpreting pieces, drawing on the diverse experiences and cultural backgrounds of participants. Young musicians will work in small groups under the guidance of esteemed professors. The results of your rehearsals will be presented during six concerts held at the New House of Art in Radziejowice.

Jazz Masterclass
Are you a percussionist, wind instrument player, bassist, guitarist or string instrument player interested in improvising with Marcin Masecki, who will lead your band playing the piano? This is something just for you!
Renowned musician Marcin Masecki extends an invitation to a workshop on musical improvisation. The formula is open-ended; we won’t confine ourselves to a single style. Instead, we’ll draw inspiration from jazz, classical music, film scores, folk tunes, dance rhythms, and all the other musical histories that shape us. Improvisation is viewed as a natural and organic way of making music, transcending stylistic boundaries. When done in a group, it sharpens our senses beautifully, requiring empathy, compromise, assertiveness, and responsibility. Under Marcin Masecki’s guidance, the ensemble will spend a week crafting their musical identity and preparing for the final concert. Together, they’ll present a jointly conceived musical story.
Calling all jazz musicians playing on: drums, wind instruments, bass, guitar and string instruments.
Jazz Masterclass will take place on August 30 – September 8, 2025.
