SYMPHÓETNTICO

“WHERE THE SPIRIT OF TRADITION PLAYS WITH MODERN SOUND”

SYMPHOETHNIC is a unique musical project that brings together: • Golec uOrkiestra ensemble • symphony orchestra • invited virtuosos of ethnic instruments (folk orchestra, female highlander choir, Wataha drummers, folk flutes, Żywiec bagpipes)

is the first in Poland — and one of the few in the world — 90-minute musical project that combines the sound of a symphony orchestra in a modern way with the unique ethnic music of the Carpathian arch and traditional female singing

is a show with the participation of about 50 outstanding Polish artists

is a performance whose repertoire is 100% based on Polish music

is a space for young talents — students of the Fognisches of Artistic Creativity run by the Golec Brothers Foundation

is a production where tradition meets modernity in a fresh, bold form

is a presentation of the most outstanding Polish virtuosos of ethnic music in dialogue with symphony on the world level

is a show of the highest artistic and emotional values

is a project that represents an important contribution to the development of contemporary Polish culture

“Symphoethnic” is music that crosses borders, does not recognize divisions, does not succumb to schemes and does not allow itself to be closed in one style. The main thing is one thing: emotions.

It is a story with sound in which everyone can find a piece of themselves.

Energetic, exuberant folk and elegant, noble classics meet on stage — creating a new, unique musical quality.

However, the project goes beyond these two worlds. In its sound we will also hear: • rock energy • lyrical, cinematic spaces • climate of Podhale and Beskids • jazz improvisation • modern, club sounds

Outstanding Polish artists are responsible for the arrangements:

Krzysztof Herdzin — pianist, composer, arranger, conductor and music producer, orchestrator of the Oscar-winning music of Jan A.P. Kaczmarek, lecturer at the Academy of Music in Bydgoszcz

Rafał Rozmus — composer, violinist and conductor, assistant professor at the Institute of Music of the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin

Łukasz Pilch — composer, arranger, music producer and instrumentalist, guitarist of Budek Sufler

SYMPHOETHNIC is not just a concert. It is a musical experience that connects generations, styles and emotions — showing that Polish tradition can sound modern, fresh and global.

The event will take place on March 7, 2027 at 5:30pm in Atlas Arena in Łódź. Ticket sales will begin on July 24, 2026 at 12:00.

The organizer of the event is Wagart.
