Fodor's Expert Review Wielkanocny Festiwal im. Ludwiga van Beethovena

Held every year for two weeks around Easter, the Warsaw Beethoven Festival is actually an import from Kraków, where it was started by Elżbieta Penderecka, wife of the famous Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki. She since moved her capital to Warsaw (rather like a certain king had done, back in 1596). The program of concerts is varied, and not limited to Beethoven (or Penderecki, for that matter). Most concerts are held at Filharmonia Narodowa, and some at the Royal Castle.
