The Fifth Annual Ignacy Jan Paderewski Festival of Raleigh in US and Poland

October 27, 2018

The Fifth Festival features six performances by five Polish and American pianists.

  The Fifth Annual Paderewski Festival of Raleigh will take place in November 3-17, 2018, the 100th anniversary of the reestablishing of Independent Poland. 

             The Festival honors Ignacy Jan Paderewski, who played a prominent role on the international stage during World War I and contributed significantly to the reestablishment of Poland as a sovereign state.

             Paderewski played three times in Raleigh (January 23, 1917; November 23, 1923; April 28, 1939) and once in Durham (January 8, 1931).  He had here a personal friend in the remarkable person of Mary Lee Swann McMillan, who had been secretary to his wife, Helena Paderewska, for almost four years from 1915 through 1918.
