The Instrument Fair

This year, the Instruments Fair will be present at the “Mazurkas of the World” festival for the ninth time. The Instrument Fair is a colorful carnival that fosters creates an informal, creative network of artists.

We invite exhibitors from Poland, Europe, and the whole world to present their work: traditional, classical, historical, reconstructions, as well as novel musical inventions. As in previous years, the Fortress will also host instrument technicians, tuners, collectors, musicians, researchers, musicologists, and museum specialists.

The exhibition is combined with concerts, workshops, showcases, theater, spontaneous music and a rich set of activities for children. In 2018, we hosted over 120 instrument makers from 10 European countries. We hope this event will grow even richer in the coming years.

During the Fair we will hand out the Honorary Mazurka Award to show appreciation for artistic achievements and the willingness to share the beauty of music. This year, the Honorary Mazurka will go to our friends – it is impossible to imagine the festival without them: Józef Broda from Istebna – instrument maker, musician and philosopher and Anna Chuda – tireless mistress of hundreds of singers and musicians in Biskupizna.

Instruments Fair curator – Piotr Piszczatowski, author of www.targowiskoinstrumentow.pl
