On 16-21 July 2019 the Karol Lipiński Academy of Music in Wrocław will host a group of 150 young musicians from China who will take part in the Sino-European Festival of Culture and Arts.
The festival is the first event co-organized by the Wrocław Academy of Music with a partner from Beijing. The idea of the Festival is international integration, exchange of artistic experiences and establishing contacts between European and Chinese art academies. In 2017 and 2018, the festival took place at universities in Italy and Spain, which initiated fruitful cooperation between European and Asian creative environments. This year a group of young Chinese artists will take part in music courses, instrumental and vocal competitions and will present recitals and concerts at the AMKL Concert Hall in Wrocław. Classes and competitions will be conducted by the pedagogues of the Wrocław Academy and invited artists from China.
An important aspect of the project is the presentation of Polish music, including works by composers associated with the Wrocław Academy of Music. The festival will include two large artistic events in the AMKL Concert Hall, which will be open to the public: a ceremonial opening of the Festival on 16 July at 4.30 p.m., and a final concert on 21 July 7.00 p.m. During the last festival concert, the Symphony Orchestra of students and graduates of the Academy of Music in Wrocław will perform Largo by Stanisław Krupowicz and Fjörd-dur by Michał Moc.
Free admission cards to the concerts are available at the reception of the E building of the Academy of Music.
