The Center for Tradition, together with the Evening School of Tradition and the Lublin Film Festival, invite everyone to a screening of two versions of the film “The Peasants”, and a Good Dance Party accompanying the events.
The Gimpls’ Traveling Orchestra will provide a musical background for a traditional dance. The Eskapada Orchestra and the Evening School of Tradition Orchestra will also showcase their skills.
The Gimpl Traveling Orchestra is a brass and violin project dedicated to the music of the eastern Lublin region. The band’s formation was inspired by a long-standing story told by singer Anna Malec about the Jewish band Gimplów – musicians from Biłgoraj who, a hundred years ago, traveled with their music through the surrounding villages and towns, setting up a portable dance floor and playing for the crowds to dance to.
The musical core of the project is formed by musicians from the Tomaszów Lubelski area and their music: Ignacy Bednarz, an outstanding violinist who plays with brass bands, and flautists led by Antoni Bednarz. Other inspirations include orchestras from Dzierążnia, Majdan Górny, and the Kimaka band from Wola Gródecka.
Gimple is road music, performing concerts in places where local melodies have long since ceased to be heard. The orchestra recreates them from fragments of memories, guessing what they might sound like today. This is a musical journey in an orange Autosan, which began with a week-long train and concert tour between Chełm and Tomaszów Lubelski in July 2024.
The dance will be preceded by two screenings of the film “The Peasants”: Jan Rybkowski’s rarely seen 1973 film version, and DK Welchman and Hugh Welchman’s 2023 film. Both screenings will be held at the Lublin Film Festival Cinema.

Eskapada Orchestra is a brass band that was formed in June 2025 at the Cultural Center in Lublin, as part of the National Center for Culture project “Eskapada – Brass Journeys in Time and Space”. The band consists of brass and woodwind instruments, including tubas, trombones, saxhorns (tenor and alto), trumpets, saxophones (alto, tenor and baritone), clarinets, flutes and oboe, and the rhythm section consists of a drum with a cymbal.
The orchestra’s repertoire draws from the rich tradition of brass bands in the Lublin Roztocze region. The program includes polkas, oberkas, travel tunes, tangos, waltzes and foxtrots.
The band is open to new members – both beginners and experienced musicians. Those interested are invited to contact: mkkabat@gmail.com
