Between October 15–25, 2026, young instrumentalists from all over Poland gather in Zakopane for master classes in musical interpretation. For them, a week with professors; for you, five evening concerts at Hasior Gallery, Municipal Art Gallery, and the music school, ending with a final concert on October 24. Learn about the Academy’s history and format here: Zakopane Academy of Arts.
This is a special event both for young instrumentalists honing their talent under excellent professors during the master interpretation courses, and for chamber music lovers who can admire their skills during open concerts held at Zakopane’s cultural institutions.
The series begins October 17 with a lecture by Danuta Gwizdalanka and Krzysztof Meyer on the performer’s role from composer and music historian views. The next day is an opening concert at Władysław Hasior Gallery.
