22nd Volume (2024)
Polish Music: Artists, Problems, Contexts
This volume of the ‘Polish
Musicological Yearbook’ features articles stemming from the 52nd
Musicological Conference of the Polish Composers' Union held in Rzeszów and
Strzyżów in 2023. The collection centers on ‘Polish music’ as its unifying
theme. Contributors explore the lives of forgotten virtuosos, examine works by
distinguished composers and conductors, and investigate Polish music in its
international contexts. The publication addresses both historical developments
and socio-aesthetic dimensions of Polish musical culture—ranging from
individual artistic profiles to broader cultural phenomena. The volume is
supplemented by an article on Shostakovich’s music for animated films,
expanding the research scope and fulfilling the journal's goal of presenting
scholarly work from various academic centers.
