This year’s Gala will present jazz awards, and the audience can look forward to two special musical encounters: the first part of the event with Hania Derej and her trio, and the second with Rabih Abou-Khalil, who moves freely between traditional Arabic music, European classical music and free jazz.<\/p>\n
During the \u0141\u00f3d\u017a gala, Derej will present the aforementioned project together with her trio, featuring Mateusz Szewczyk (bass guitar, double bass) and Gniewomir Tomczyk (drums). The concert will also feature a \u0141\u00f3d\u017a guest appearance by Micha\u0142 Kobojek, a jazz saxophonist associated with \u0141\u00f3d\u017a and multiple winner of the Mayor of \u0141\u00f3d\u017a Award for Best \u0141\u00f3d\u017a Jazzman.<\/p>\n
Rabih Abou-Khalil will be honored at the Gala with the Marshal of the \u0141\u00f3d\u017a Voivodeship’s Grand Prix of Europe 2025 Award. For the occasion he will perform with his band: Mateusz Smoczy\u0144ski \u2013 violin, Krzysztof Lenczowski \u2013 cello, and Jarrod Cagwin \u2013 drums.
