The most well-known Polish musicians will perform in Beijing during the "Polish Culture Days" from May 9 to 13, according to a notice released Friday by the Polish Embassy to China.

The activity is sponsored by the Polish government according to an agreement between the two culture ministries, said Aquieuzka Lobacz, charge d'affaires of the Polish embassy.

She noted the musicians will play both classical and pop music during their stay. An exhibition of Polish handicraft will also be held in Beijing.

The "Polish Culture Days" is to realize the consensus reached by the two countries during Chinese President Hu Jintao's visit to Poland last year. Its purpose is to promote mutual understanding on culture between the peoples of the two countries, She said.

The "China culture days" will be held in Poland in 2005, she added.
