| dc.description.abstract | Art and culture belong to those fields which are most important for functioning of
each metropolis. The location of a given city on the cultural map of Europe depends on
its music traditions, prestige of its artistic institutions, as well as on the number of
educated musicians. The author of this paper has analyzed the current condition of the
music culture of Łódź, reverting to historic circumstances of establishing those
traditions. The article presents the most important metropolitan music institutions in
Łódź (Filharmonia Łódzka, Teatr Wielki, Teatr Muzyczny, Akademia Muzyczna).
Moreover, the article is an attempted assessment of strategies of promotion, as well as
activities (including the analysis of artistic programme) aiming at development of the
described institutions of culture. In order to depict these issues, subjective opinions of
musicians of Łódź, concerning working conditions and career prospects in our city, have
been presented. | pl_PL |
