Pszczyna Folk Orchestra

Pszczyna Folk Orchestra is a group of enthusiasts bound by a shared love for traditional music and folk dance. Our mission is to promote the folk culture of the Pszczyna region while bringing us joy and fun!

The Orchestra's history dates back to 2018 when the group, formerly known as Kapela Pszczynioki, was founded by Pszczyna musicians Stanisław Kokot and Tomasz Marzec. Currently operating under the association of the same name, we bring together youth, children, and adults – both amateurs and professionals.

Our workshops and activities with children and youth are part of a broad educational initiative, fostering integration within the local community and other folk groups.

It's worth highlighting that Pszczyna Folk Orchestra champions the traditional mentor-apprentice approach. Younger members learn from their elders, promoting intergenerational connections and building strong musical bonds.
