8th Days of Ukrainian Music in Warsaw
DAYS OF UKRAINIAN MUSIC
The 8th DAYS OF UKRAINE MUSIC IN WARSAW took place on 4, 6 and 8 September 2022. At a time when Russian aggression is trying to tear Ukraine apart, we are once again proving its importance on the cultural map of the world. All thanks to the favour of our benefactors! This year we are supported by Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego and Most the Most Foundation as MAIN PARTNERS of the FESTIVAL. This year closes with a 3-year grant from the City of Warsaw. We enjoy recognition from the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage thanks to a grant from the National Institute of Music and Dance. We are again supported by the ZAiKS Authors’ Association, the MAGOVOX Company and the Union of Performing Artists STOART. A mark of the quality of our undertaking is our partnership with the National Philharmonic Orchestra. Thank you very much!
