Final Concert | Winners | Dikanda

The closing event will be the crowning event of the jubilee fifth edition of the True Musicians Tournament. We will meet the winners of all the competition categories, and the best singers and instrumentalists, top bands, singing groups and dance couples will perform in front of the audience.

The special guest of the second part of the final of the True Musicians Tournament will be a Szczecin ensemble Dikanda, who draw their musical inspirations from the traditional folk sounds of the orient – from the Balkans, Israel, Kurdistan, Belarus to India. In their compositions, one can hear mainly Balkan and Gypsy sounds. Dikanda's concerts are an extremely emotional journey through ethnic sounds, a lively meeting full of energy, charisma and true feelings.

The ensemble has existed since 1997. It has recorded 7 CDs, including a Live DVD recorded in the Witkacy Theater in Zakopane; given hundreds of concerts (mainly in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and also in Russia, India and the USA), and received numerous awards including the "Record of the Year" from the German journal Folker, awarded in 2005 for "Usztijo".
