In its 11th edition, the Krzyżowa-Music Festival will once again present top-level chamber music concerts in Lower Silesia, creating a musical programmatic bridge from West to East – connecting cities such as Vienna, Berlin, Wrocław, Kraków, and Warsaw. From August 26 to September 7, 2025, a total of eleven concerts and two symposia will take place. Internationally acclaimed musicians will focus particularly on the works of Polish composers and pay tribute to two greats: Ravel from Paris and Shostakovich from Moscow. For the first time, tickets will be available for purchase in advance – starting June 20, 2025.
Following the anniversary season in 2024, Krzyżowa-Music embarks on a new decade from August 26 to September 7, 2025, under the continued artistic direction of violinist Viviane Hagner and with the participation of outstanding musicians. Renowned international artists will collaborate with young, talented musicians to prepare 40 pieces from classical and contemporary repertoires. Among the Polish artists featured will be Gustaw Bafeltowski (cello), Adam Golka (piano), Zofia Neugebauer (flute), and Piotr Szumieł (viola) as Senior.
