THE MOST PROFESSIONAL GUITAR COURSE IN POLAND
Summer Guitar Festival has been held continuously since 2001.
Every year, excellent musicians from Poland and abroad share here their music knowledge and skills. Mutual understanding and respect is the secret of the Festival’s success. This magical event and place create a friendly and comfortable environment for all participants – regardless of their music education level.
„”The casual nature is something that sets Krzyzowa apart from other festivals of its kind. The rigid boundary between participants
and teachers are blurred, which opens both sides to new experiences and inspires further exploration.”
Six Strings of the World, magazine
