Statement of Reasons

Acting in accordance with the regulations and objectives of the “Future Classics – Scholarship Programme for Young Polish Classical Musicians”, the committee evaluated all applications submitted by the candidates.

In selecting participants qualified for Stage II, particular importance was given to the strategic and developmental value of the applications, including each candidate’s proposed artistic career development plan, initiatives aimed at building their professional profile, and the justification for receiving support. The committee also reviewed video materials submitted by participants via the VideoAsk platform, in which candidates presented their motivation, personality, future plans, and artistic vision.

In line with the programme’s mission, the committee sought artists who demonstrate courage and a readiness to consciously shape their professional future.
Based on the evaluation process, discussions, and voting, the committee selected 48 candidates to advance to Stage II of the programme.
