Marshal Piotr Całbecki participated in the event commemorating the 45th anniversary of the signing of the August Agreements.

“It is worth returning to the idea of Solidarity in order to pass it on to future generations. The freedom we have enjoyed for 35 years began 45 years ago in Gdańsk, it began in Bydgoszcz, it began in the heart of every Pole. Let us continue to build Solidarity. Let it live on. We are obliged to continue this great work of responsibility for our fellow human beings, especially when they need our support,” said Marshal Piotr Całbecki.

The outdoor concert in front of the Pomeranian Philharmonic building featured the Pomeranian Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra and the Opera Nova Choir conducted by Maciej Tworek, as well as soloists Sławek Uniatowski, Nazarii Kachala, Małgorzata Chruściel, Mateusz Wiśniewski, Filip Czarnecki, Mariusz Czajka, Emilia Hamerlik and Judyta Wenda.
