The idea of judging a musical personality and not only a technically perfect performance (as it is practiced at most competitions) is really unique.

I've seen the inspiring festival, inspiring concerts and inspiring audience.

This idea has to be cherished – there is nothing like that, neither in Poland, nor in the world.

Yet there is something that never changes – this wonderful atmosphere, the ambience which makes you want to come back here.

Luca Pfaff /on Polish TV/

It's a revolution.

This festival is exceptional.

I've got familiar with the Tansman Festival. It may turn out even more important for me than making acquaintance with the very composer, whom I met in Paris.

Those who want to work on their own personality need time, patience and perserverance. And the help of those who can take care of their talents.
For this exact reason the Alexander Tansman International Festival and Competition of Musical Personalities, started 10 years ago in Łódź, has been so important. This event has no precedent in the world history – its aim is not to compare the skills of one particular type of instrumentalists (pianists or violonists for instance), but to compare personalities of musicians of various disciplines.
