Fryderyk Chopin
Dear Friends !
As everybody knows, we are going to celebrate a bicentennial
anniversary of Fryderyk Chopin's birthday very soon. I would love to
invite all of you to take part in that exceptional event, which will take place
in February at the beatiful Polish National Home. As a founder and artistic
director, I have a privelage to encourage all of you to come and
participate in the Ist Chopin International Piano Competiton. I had got a
dream, that this event would have unified all of us: professors, pianists
and students in admiring music of Polish genius.
I would like to assure each prospective competitior, that international
jury will listen and evaluate everybody with great respect and
indulgence.
During the competition will take place two concerts: first, featuring
jury members and second - the final concert of prize winners.
I hope to see you all in Polish National Home !

Ist Chopin International Piano Competiton in Hartford, CT
