The International Composition Competition named after Kazimierz Seroсki has been organized by PTMW since 1984 every three years, and since 1996 – every two years.
“The initiative, whose originator was Zygmunt Krauze, has enjoyed great interest from creators around the world for years. Composers of all nationalities participate in it without age restrictions, and anyone can submit works performed publicly or/and awarded in other competitions, with the exception of works published in print” – it was written on the organizer’s website – the Polish Society for Contemporary Music (PTMW).
As explained, “the subject of the K. Seroсki competitions are alternately: works for symphony orchestra, for chamber or string orchestra and for various chamber ensembles”.
The competition was organized under the honorary patronage of the Ministry of Culture, National Heritage and Sport. It was co-financed from the funds of the Minister of Culture, National Heritage and Sport from the Culture Promotion Fund as part of the “Music” program, implemented by the National Institute of Music and Dance.
Honorary patronage is held by the Union of Polish Composers. Partners of the competition are the Association of Authors ZAiKS and Polish Music Publishing House. (PAP)
