The Szymanowski Companion, Hardback Book

The Szymanowski Companion Hardback

Edited by Paul Cadrin

Hardback

Description

The Polish composer Karol Szymanowski is one of the most fascinating musical figures of the early twentieth century.

His works included four symphonies, two violin concertos, the operas Hagith and King Roger, the ballet-pantomime Harnasie, the oratorio Stabat Mater, as well as numerous piano, violin, vocal and choral compositions.

The profile and popularity of Szymanowski's music outside Poland has never been higher and continues to grow.

The Szymanowski Companion constitutes the most significant and comprehensive reference source to the composer in English.

Edited by two of the leading scholars in the field, Paul Cadrin and Stephen Downes, the collection consists of over 50 contributions from an international array of contributors, including recognized Polish experts.

The Companion thus provides a systematic, authoritative and up-to-date compilation of information concerning the composer's life, thought and works.
