PG Carnivalesque" under the patronage of Prof. Krzysztof Wilde, rector of Gdańsk Tech, attracted several hundred people who listened to daring performances of popular pop music hits. During the performance we Heard choral arrangements of hits such as: "Dancing Queen", "Memory", "California Dreamin'" and "Maria".
