Dear participants!

"Elbląg Music Masterclass" is the largest music workshop organized in northern Poland, as well as numerous concerts and recitals. As part of the EMM, the "Young Virtuoso Competition" is also held - I must admit that it is the most important point of the event for me. I remain an active violinist and I am well aware of the importance of performing on stage in the development of young artists. Unfortunately, it is not always possible, which I experienced myself, and as the Director of the Elbląg Chamber Orchestra, I decided to help musicians representing the young generation. It is with you in mind that we organize the "Elbląg Music Masterclass", which provides not only direct contact with outstanding teachers, but also the opportunity to perform with a professional orchestra and a number of other activities that will positively affect your career. I am convinced that soon you will sail into the wide musical waters!

I wish you all the best in achieving your goals!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Elbląg is a city full of culture, which boasts a beautiful, restored Old Town, attracting thousands of tourists from Poland and abroad. I am even more pleased that the "Elbląg Music Masterclass" will take place in this unique space - an event that I am a patron of. It is a festival of music that makes its debut on the cultural map of Poland, but I am convinced that it will find an honorable place on it. I wish all EMM participants a successful stay in Elbląg and I encourage you to visit our city again.

Mayor of the City of Elbląg,

Witold Wroblewski
