Tadeusz Baird © Andrzej Zborski Tadeusz Baird Contemporary BIOGRAPHIE Tadeusz Baird Tadeusz Baird (geb. 1928), Sohn eines polnischen Vaters und einer russischen Mutter, wurde im polnischen Grodzisk Mazowiecki geboren. Während der nationalsozialistischen Besatzung studierte er privat Komposition, Klavier und Musikwissenschaft bei Bolesław Woytowicz und Kazimierz Sikorski sowie von 1947 bis 1951 an der staatlichen Musikhochschule in Warschau bei Piotr Rytel und Piotr Perkowski. 1949 gründete er zusammen mit Kazimierz Serocki und Jan Krenz die Gruppe 49. Ziel der Gruppe war es, kommunikative und expressive Musik nach der sozialrealistischen Staatsideologie zu schreiben. 1956 gründete er mit Kazimierz Serocki das Internationale Festival für Zeitgenössische Musik in Warschau. Ab 1974 lehrte er an der Musikakademie in Warschau und wurde 1977 Professor und Leiter der Fakultät für Komposition. 1976 wurde er Vorsitzender der polnischen Sektion die ISCM und 1979 Mitglied der Akademie der Künste der Deutschen Demokratischen Republik. Er erhielt zahlreiche Auszeichnungen in Polen und im Ausland, darunter den Polnischen Staatspreis (1951, 1964 und 1970), den Preis des Ministers für Kultur und Kunst (1962), den Musikpreis der Stadt Köln (1963), die jährliche Auszeichnung des Polnischen Komponistenverbands für sein Lebenswerk (1966), den Koussevitzky-Preis (1968), den Künstler-Preis der Stadt Warschau (1970), den Alfred-Jurzykowski-Preis (New York, 1971), den Arthur Honegger-Preis (1974), den Sibelius-Preis (1976) und den Premierministerpreis. Seine Werke wurden auf dem Tribune internationale des compositeurs der UNESCO in Paris (1959, 1963 und 1966) ausgezeichnet. Er schrieb sowohl großformatige Sinfonien und Konzerte (z. B. Concerto lugubre) als auch Kammermusik, zudem war er auch ein Komponist von Film- und Theatermusik. Von großer Bedeutung sind jedoch seine zahlreichen von der Poesie inspirierten Vokalzyklen wie Głosy z oddali (Stimmen aus der Ferne). Bairds Musik ist lyrisch, sehr ausdrucksstark und äußerst subjektiv. Sie ist trotz serieller Techniken oft in der nachromantischen Tradition verwurzelt. Er starb 1981 im Alter von 53 Jahren.

During the Nazi occupation he studied composition, piano and musicology privately with Bolesław Woytowicz and Kazimierz Sikorski, and at the State High School of Music in Warsaw from 1947 to 1951, with Piotr Rytel and Piotr Perkowski. In 1949, he founded Group 49 along with Kazimierz Serocki and Jan Krenz. The aim of the group was to write communicative and expressive music according to the social-realistic ideology of the state. In 1956 he founded the Warsaw Autumn International Contemporary Music Festival with Kazimierz Serocki. From 1974 he lectured at the Music Academy in Warsaw, becoming a professor and head of the Faculty of Composition in 1977. In 1976 he became chairman of the Polish section of the ISCM and from 1979 a member of the Academy of Arts of the German Democratic Republic. He has received many awards in Poland and abroad, including the Polish State Prize (1951, 1964, 1970), Award of the Minister of Culture and Fine Arts (1962), Musical Prize of the City of Cologne (1963), annual award of the Polish Composers’ Union for lifetime achievement (1966), Koussevitzky Award (1968), Artistic Award of the City of Warsaw (1970), Alfred Jurzykowski Prize (New York, 1971), Arthur Honegger Prize (1974), Sibelius Award (1976), and the Prime Minister’s Award. His works have won top honours at the UNESCO International Rostrum of Composers in Paris (1959, 1963, 1966). He wrote both large scale symphonies, concertos (e.g. Concerto lugubre), chamber music, and was also a composer of film and theatre music, however, of most importance are numerous vocal cycles inspired by poetry, such as Głosy z oddali (Voices from Afar). Baird’s music is usually lyrical, very expressive, and intensely subjective. It is often rooted in the post-Romantic tradition, despite serial techniques. He died in 1981, aged 53.

  • Antoni Szałowski
    1 Introduction 1.1. Defining the subject “It is the duty of Polish musicologists to know more or less as much about us as they do about the composers who live in Poland”1. These words come from Roman Palester’s letter to the organisers of a sym­ posium devoted to the works of Polish émigré composers which took place in Warsaw in 1988, a project initiated by the Musicology Section of the Polish Composers’ Union. The conference was an exceptional event, and the first one of its kind. The papers to be presented there were to combine critical and aesthetic interpretation with artistic evaluation of the works, and some of them were to be devoted to Antoni Szalowski2. Unfortunately, the achievements of Szalowski, one of the main represen­ tatives of Polish Neoclassicism, were, after all, omitted from the con­ ference programme. Roman Palester described this as “something of a scandal”3. Referring to the title of the symposium, “Music wrongly 1 R.

She also mentions Wladyslaw Malinowski, who was planning a presentation on the influence of the émigré community on the evolution of creative paths, using the music of Palester, Panufnik, Spisak and Szalow­ ski as examples.

This is what Roman Palester wrote in his letter to the organisers of a sym- posium devoted to the works of Polish émigré composers, organised in War- saw in 1988 by the Musicologists’ Section of the Polish Composers’ Union. The conference, an event unique in that period, was supposed to include 2 papers dedicated to Antoni Szałowski (1907–1973); however, in spite of ear- lier announcements, they were omitted from the programme. Palester de- scribed this as “something of a scandal” (1989: 28). Referring to the title of the symposium, „Music wrongly present”, he remarked that it was inaccu- rate in relation to the list of artists who were to be the subject of the con- 3 ference, since some of them, such as Michał Spisak, used to visit Poland and maintained continuous contact with their native community, while their works were published and performed in Poland.
