Chopin University Big Band live in Warsaw

Experience Chopin University Big Band live on August 9th

Chopin University Big Band, associated with the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw, performs a repertoire rooted in the tradition of large jazz ensembles. Their style encompasses both classic big band arrangements – drawing from composers like Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Thad Jones – alongside contemporary compositions and arrangements created by students and faculty. The ensemble frequently explores diverse influences within jazz, including elements of funk, Latin music, and modern harmonic concepts.

The concert is scheduled to take place at the Amfiteatr Wolskiego Centrum Kultury (Wólka Kosowska Amphitheater), located within the Wólka Kosowska Culture Centre complex. This outdoor amphitheater serves as a significant cultural venue for the local community in Wólka Kosowska, a town bordering Warsaw. Constructed in 2016, it provides a space for open-air performances, festivals, and community events. The amphitheater’s design emphasizes accessibility and accommodates a substantial audience. It is known for hosting a variety of artistic disciplines beyond music, including theatre and dance presentations. The venue aims to promote cultural engagement within the Gmina Kosów Lacki region.
