Formed for the second consecutive year at the initiative of Associate Professor Koji Morita, the department’s representative for Polish studies, the choir rehearsed under the guidance of Specially Appointed Lecturer Sonia Czaplewska. On the day of the event, the students handled all aspects of the performance, including conducting and piano accompaniment. Their refreshing voices, performed before an audience of over 500 guests including prominent figures from various fields, were met with warm applause, and H.E.
