Ukrainian Music Days for three days in Warsaw

Music knows no boundaries. This September, we'll be able to experience works by Ukrainian composers. The program for the 11th Ukrainian Music Days in Warsaw is now live.

As Fisz rapped on "Polepiony Dźwięki," music is the language of the universe. It's worth exploring compositions by artists from other countries. A good opportunity to do so is the 11th Ukrainian Music Days in Warsaw , which kicks off in September.

The creator and artistic director of the festival is the conductor and composer Roman Rewakowicz.
