Before there was a Festival, there was a shared belief that the legacy of Ignacy Jan Paderewski belonged in Paso Robles.

In the first installment of Paderewski Voices, Festival Artistic Director Marek Żebrowski reflects on the people, friendships and musical connections that helped build the Paderewski Festival in Paso Robles—and on the young musicians now carrying that legacy forward.

Join us November 6–8 for the 2026 Paderewski Festival in Paso Robles.

The Paderewski Festival’s Steinway piano is a special part of our November tradition. Throughout the year, we carefully maintain this beautiful wood instrument so it is ready to be played during the Festival each fall.

Hear it in action this year, November 6–8, during the Cracow Duo with violinist Grace Seng or the Youth Cultural Exchange Concert, both at Park Ballroom on Sunday.
