In 2015, Cicha and Bart Pałyga presented the ‘9 Languages’ concert dedicated to the minorities of north-eastern Poland. This time in Manchester Cicha was part of the official delegation of the Polish Stand of the Adam Mickiewicz Institute. It was interesting to get to know Womex from the networking, organizational and social side, to talk to old friends and the organizers of festivals at which Cicha performed in the years after Womex. (Cicha went as a Self Managed Artist). ‘Womex on the stage side is a completely different experience than Womex on the social side. It was a very interesting and refreshing experience and I hope to come back here again!.’ – said Cicha after returning from Manchester. (both of photos by Eric van Nieuwland)
