8.-14. Juli 2024 – Krakau, Polen 🌻
Einwöchiger Liturgische Musik-Workshop in englischer Sprache
This is our leading project created for people who love liturgical music. Join us for this week-long conference in the heart of the ancient capital of Poland, beautiful Kraków. Being aware that music is a vital element of the liturgy, we desire to cultivate its traditions as well as to set new directions for its organic development.
The Spirit and the bride say: come! The Church, the bride of Christ, is awaiting his return. Moved by the Holy Spirit, with our hearts and minds and voices we cry: Come, Lord Jesus! That’s what each liturgy is really about. In every meaningful relationship, in friendship, but especially in the sacrament of marriage Christians desire to experience the power of Christ’s promise that when we are bound by his love, we get a foretaste of heaven here on earth.
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” Let the hearer say, “Come” (Revelation 22:17)
“The Spirit and the Bride”, a title of this year’s edition, is drawn from the Book of the Revelation and will guide us in our musical and theological reflection at the 2024 Extraordinary Music Workshop. Our repertoire will be centered around themes of Holy Matrimony, the Holy Spirit, and the Church. Additionally we will hear daily talks on liturgical theology given by Fr. Innocent Smith, OP, a musician and expert on the history of liturgy. 400 singers, 7 days, Gregorian and Byzantine chant, polyphony old and new – all happening here within the Gothic walls of the Dominican priory of Kraków, Poland, led by Dominican Friars and our wonderful faculty from the United States, Germany, Poland, and Ukraine.
The dates are July 8-14, 2024 – and the Online Signup Form is now available!

Sehen Sie, was unsere Teilnehmer über die Ausgabe 2022 gesagt haben:
All around a fantastic experience – even though we were very busy, it was a great way to pack a ton of learning into a short amount of time. I hope to be able to return next year, but even if I can’t I will be advertising the workshop to all my musically-inclined friends.
Peter
I spontaneously signed up for this workshop after hearing about it from Dominican friends and I am so pleased I did: it was enriching, mentally, spiritually and musically. I want to say a big ‚Thank You!‘ to Fr. Lukasz and team for their heroic work in the preparation and execution of this week, for it surely required tremendous effort from many people. However, as we know, it’s team-work to get into Heaven and in this regard, it was a great joy to be united in prayer and song with so many other good souls – surely a foretaste of Heaven!
Aoífe-Maria
I found the workshop intense (in a good way) and fun. Well worth the time investment. I would definitely come again.
Emanuel
I absolutely loved the week of workshops, meeting beautiful new friends, meeting Dominicans, who I have never had any opportunity to meet in Australia, and just being around like-minded Catholic individuals. I loved how the friars wished to spend time with us outside of our workshops, and I feel to have created a wonderful bond with the international group. I am SOOO grateful to have had the opportunity to come to Krakow. I feel it was a real God send! Thank you so much!!!

Wenn Du an diesjährigem Workshop nicht teilnehmen kannst, aber die Idee selbst nahe Deinem Herzen steht, möchten wir Dich um die Unterstützung bei der Organisation dieser Veranstaltung bitten. Jede Geldspende stellt eine enorme Hilfe bei den Vorbereitungen dar!
Es ist die neunte Staffel
Erfahre, wie die vorherigen Ausgaben der Workshops der Außergewöhnlichen Musik aussahen. Wir veranstalten sie in Krakau seit 2013.
The program offered in English is incorporated into a larger Polish-language event, attended annually by over 300 people. This creates a unique opportunity to raise your heart and voice with what may be the largest choir you have ever sung in, but more importantly it gives a sense of unity of the Church gathered to worship from so many places around the world. We hope you will join us in Krakow this summer!

Donkey the Coffee Truck
Participants of last year’s Extraordinary Music Workshops probably cannot imagine our event without the Osiołek (Donkey) – a unique multimedia coffee truck in the monastery garden, provided by YoungTree Foundation. We are very happy that it will accompany us this year and we can’t wait for our first cup of aromatic coffee!
