PolMusica - Polish Music Competition

15/12/2024

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the previous jury for their dedicated efforts in PolMusicA. We truly appreciate the time and expertise contributed by all members during their deliberations over the years. A special acknowledgement goes to the jurors from Poland: Paweł Zawadzki, Aleksandra Jeleńska, Mikołaj Kuńczyk, Stanisław Deja, and Michał Buczkowski from the Netherlands, as well as our national jurors Adam Piechociński from Melbourne and Zdzisław Kowalik from Sydney.

In light of recent developments, the Society of Polish Culture in Victoria has decided to dissolve the current jury and will be appointing a new Jury prior to the upcoming edition of PolMusicA in 2025.
