Workshops | Open session of the Jagiellonian Fair Orchestra | Ewa Grochowska, Marcin “Kabat” Kowalczuk (POL) | age 18+ | REGISTRATION

The open workshop session with the Jagiellonian Fair Orchestra returns!

We invite people who play instruments such as violin, accordion, harmony, cello, bass, wind instruments, frame drum, or baraban to take part in the workshop. Participants must bring their own instrument. The repertoire will be taught by ear.

For many years, the Jagiellonian Fair Orchestra has functioned as an educational and artistic project based on the belief that traditional dance music is a medium that connects and creates a community – both among amateur and professional musicians, as well as among listeners and dancers who enjoy dancing to its rhythms during long dance evenings. Every year during the festival, open sessions were held for people interested in traditional dance repertoire from the Lublin region.

This year we are returning to open workshops led by Ewa Grochowska and Marcin “Kabat” Kowalczuk. Participants will learn polkas, oberkas, podróżniaki, marches, waltzes, foxtrots, and other melodies originating from archival recordings, family traditions, and learning from both the oldest generation of musicians and orchestras whose traditions date back to the beginning of the 20th century.
