In reality, his personal attitude to the role of the bard, composing “to uplift people’s hearts”, was somewhat ambivalent. In spite of his sincere patriotic commitment, he was aware that the public for which he wrote did not have a refined taste or sophisticated aesthetic needs. A caustic remark from one of his letters conveys some of his feelings: “[…] Meyerbeer works for the Parisian theatre, I for local consumption – and that, as anyone would admit, is not a place where you can spread your wings.”1 Leaving aside the question of the scope of Moniuszko’s talent, this statement makes us aware of the distance between his artistic aspirations and the actual possibilities presented by the local “opera market”.
