The concerts will be accompanied by the International Forum of Percussion, where the main attraction will be Pete Lockett, a British musician at the forefront of contemporary drumming. He has collaborated with artists such as Peter Gabriel and Amy Winehouse.
There will also be an a record attempt. "We also wanted to beat the Polish record in terms of the number of people simultaneously playing a drum kit," spokesperson for the festival, Jarosław Jaworski, said.
The previous record was 75 drummers playing simultaneously. (jh)
