  2. Hello,
    I will be in Warsaw for the Jesien festival starting on september 19, and I would also like to enjoy some free jazz. What are the places? Where should I get informed?

    Thanks!

  3. Hello Simon
    There are a couple of places in Warsaw that you can find some great music
    First and foremost Pardon To Tu, Kosmos Kosmos, occasionally others (as I rarely get a chance to visit Warsaw I don't follow that much the local stages)
    http://pardontotu.blogspot.com/
    you can write me on facebook again before the visit and I'll see if any particular invites come up in the meantime :)
    enjoy Warsaw. jazzowy alchemik
