  • Reviews ADAM Mickiewicz
    REVIEWS ADAM MICKIEWICZ: THE LIFE OF A ROMANTIC. By Roman Koropeckyj. Ithaca and London: Cornell University Press, 2008. xvii, 549 pp., illustrations, notes, bibliography, index. ISBN (cloth) 978-0-8014-4471-5. Roman Koropeckyj begins his biography of Adam Mickiewicz (1798–1855)— Poland’s greatest poet, canonically speaking—with a jocular epigraph from a Polish hip-hop artist who suggests that Mickiewicz would make a good rapper if he were still alive today. The juxtaposition of this epigraph with an excerpt from Mickiewicz’s famous autobiographical lyric, a retrospective, somber summa of the poet’s life, seems to encapsulate Koropeckyj’s approach to a task that is certainly not for a scholar who is faint of heart: writing a biography of the Polish “national poet” that re/presents Mickiewicz’s voice in its own historical, social, and literary context with a twenty-first century audience and its frame of reference in mind. This monumental biography—a somewhat risky adjective to use since the authorial design appears, inter alia, to remove Mickiewicz from the symbolic monument erected to him by Polish culture during the last two and a half centuries—is a tour de force. To begin with, it is meticulously researched, which is no small feat given the wealth of materials on Mickiewicz, as well as flawlessly written. Koropeckyj writes with sprez- zatura and flair, a combination that makes Mickiewicz seem truly alive in a human, writer-next-door kind of way. At the same time, the biographer turns Mickiewicz into a character, a hero perhaps, of a romantic work of art and “of his time.” Mickiewicz the rebel, exile, pilgrim and wanderer, melancholic, wieszcz (poet-prophet, spiritual leader of the nation), improvisatore, thinker and scholar, “teacher and preacher” (p.

  • Maja Trochimczyk
    Maja Trochimczyk History in Song: Maria Szymanowska and Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz’s Śpiewy historyczne They were read, they were sung; ladies contributed to this decora- tive edition with their drawings and music; girls learned the songs by heart and, in this way, they loved, they learned the country’s history […] Nobody dared not to know Niemcewicz’s book and to admit that they did not know the history of their homeland. With these words, Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski captured the enormous impact of Niemcewicz’s Śpiewy historyczne on Pol- ish culture. In my study, I will focus on the music, created for all 33 chants by a group of amateur and professional composers, including Maria Szymanowska. This monumental and patriotic poetry collection was written by a poet, politician, educator, jour- nalist, and freedom fighter, Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz (1758–1841) who was also a deputy to the Four-Year Seym, a member of the Patriotic Party, a leading advocate of the Constitution of May 3, 1791, Tadeusz Kościuszko’s right hand during the 1794 Insurrec- tion, a member of governments in the Duchy of Warsaw, the Con- gress Kingdom and the November Uprising, and the president of the Society of Friends of Learning in Warsaw (1827–1831). Niemcewicz’s educational approach to history was the prima- ry reason for the design and content of Śpiewy historyczne where each of the 33 poems was accompanied by an essay (Przydatki do śpiewu…) explaining its historical background. Each poem was also set to music and illustrated with an engraving of a no- table scene from the life of its hero.

  • Maria Szymanowska and the Evolution of Professional Pianism by Slawomir Dobrzanski
    Maria Szymanowska and the Evolution of Professional Pianism by Slawomir Dobrzanski Today's pianists, preoccupied with a grueling daily regimen of scales, arpeggios, etudes, etc. and equipped with an enormous piano repertoire ranging from Rameau through Chopin to Ligeti, rarely spend much time thinking about who created their profession. In fact, most piano connoisseurs and historians rarely venture beyond the early 20th century, or, more specifically, beyond the start of the Recording Era. Nevertheless, the evolution of professional pianism remains a fascinating area of inquiry. For instance, what, we may ask, are the differences and similarities between early 19th century pianists and the pianists of our time? The life and career of Maria Szymanowska (1789-1831), one of the first pianists "(to take) Europe by storm," provides surprisingly good source material for the making of such comparisons. In contrast to that of today's pianists, Maria Szymanowska's musical education did not take place at any official music school. There are several reasons for this. Firstly, public music education in Warsaw was still in its infancy (the first professional music school there opened only in 1809); secondly, such education was at the time inaccessible to women. Given such circumstances, Szymanowska's piano instruction took place at her home in Warsaw, with two unknown piano teachers, Lisowski and Gremm. It is widely assumed that she took advice from Chopin's teacher, Józef Elsner, from Karol Kurpinski, conductor of the National Theatre, and from Chopin's organ teacher Franciszek Lessel, a student of Haydn. Maria's parents, following their daughter's unusual interest in music, began inviting renowned musicians into their home whenever such artists performed in Warsaw.

  • The Piano Genre of the Nineteenth-Century Polonaise
    THE PIANO GENRE OF THE NINETEENTH-CENTURY POLONAISE by BARBARA M. SIEMENS B.Mus., The University of British Columbia, 1986 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (School of Music) We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April 2002 © Barbara M.

It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. School of Music The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date Abstract The polonaise is a genre whose history reaches back over four hundred years. In recent times, the style has come to be characterized by the rhythm found in many nineteenth-century examples in the piano literature. However, while this rhythm is a typical feature in most Romantic samples, the term "typical" becomes problematic when viewing polonaises written in nineteenth-century Poland, as well as in eighteenth-century Germany. In these cases, the above pattern is given a less prominent role and is replaced by other rhythmic features. This dissimilarity between the polonaises of various periods calls into question the validity of labelling a primary characteristic unilaterally "typical." Is it possible to make one statement regarding the basic rhythmic characteristics of a polonaise, or is it more accurate to create definitions which vary according to historical context? The answer lies in an examination of the rhythmic characteristics as they occur, and not as they are thought to occur, throughout the history of the genre.

  • Halina Goldberg
    Halina Goldberg The Topos of Memory in the Albums of Maria Szymanowska and Helena Szymanowska-Malewska The custom of maintaining friendship albums, blank books in- tended to be filled with keepsakes inscribed by friends and ac- quaintances, persisted in Europe for some four centuries, though its social contexts and the resulting artifacts underwent many transformations. Mementos left in a friendship album (also known as keepsake album, album amicorum or Stammbuch) could take on various forms – poems, drawings, paper cuttings, musical compo- sitions – depending on the interests of the recipient and the talents of the inscriber. In this essay, I examine one aspect of the album tradition: its emphasis on memory. Using the albums of Maria Szymanowska and her daughter, Helena Szymanowska-Malewska, I discuss three ways the topos of memory takes shape in album inscriptions. First, I explore what musical mementos can tell us about ways in which memory intersected with the nineteenth-century cult of relics. Then I contextualize the role musical album inscriptions had in constructing and maintaining the memory of the Polish nation. Fi- nally, I demonstrate how specific compositional features of musical gifts were designed to invoke psychological processes characteristic of a remembered experience. Mementos and Relics “Where are the hours that oh! so swiftly vanished?” exclaimed Johann Wolfgang Goethe in the much-celebrated poem known today under the title “Aussöhnung”, but originally composed for Maria Szymanowska’s album.1 Goethe’s poem, while extolling music’s power to bring back the past, reminds the reader that even as the present, through music, catches a glimpse of the past, it is 1 “Wo sind die Stunden, überschnell verflüchtigt?” From Johann Wolfgang Goethe inscription in the album of Maria Szymanowska.

  • Chopin in the Music Culture of Russia in the Second Half of the Nineteenth Century
    Interdisciplinary Studies in Musicology g, 2011 © Department of Musicology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań, Poland TOMASZ BARANOWSKI (Warszawa) Chopin in the music culture of Russia in the second half of the nineteenth century. From Glinka to Scriabin ABSTRACT: This article deals with the reception of Chopin’s music in Russia during the second half of the nineteenth century, as broadly understood. The Chopin cult that developed in Russia was not only genuine, it was exceptional in Europe, giving rise to numerous artistic achievements in many complementary areas, above all composition, pianism and music publishing. The author discusses the issue from an historical perspective, presenting profiles of six outstanding Russian composers in whose life and work the influence of Chopin was at its greatest. The first is Mikhail Glinka, a pioneer of the national orientation in Russian music, who drew abundantly on Chopinian models. The next generation is represented by Anton Rubinstein, the most famous Russian pianist of his times, and two of the Mighty Handful, Mily Balakirev and Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov. Among the last heirs to Chopin in Russia, pursuing their artistic careers around the turn of the twentieth century, are two composers who masterfully assimilated the stylistic idiom of the composer of the Polonaise-Fantasy, namely Anatoly Lyadov, known as the “Russian Chopin”, and Alexander Scriabin. KEYWORDS: Russia, Fryderyk Chopin, reception, Chopin style, national style, Mighty Handful Introduction Russia has a special place on the extensive and impressive map of Chopin’s music reception in the nineteenth century, both in terms of multi­ plicity and variety of achievements. There, the true cult of Chopin (different from so-called “chopinmania”, which was popular in the West) developed to the highest degree, and the work of the Polish composer found numerous followers; it also constituted the foundation of the great Russian piano school, which was initiated at that time.

  • 2020 Do You Know Poland
    DO YOU KNOW POLAND? BOOKS AND INFORMATION ON POLISH HISTORY AND CULTURE General History of Poland Patrice Dabrowski, Poland: The First Thousand Years (2014) Avoiding academic prose yet precise, this sweeping overview of the history of Poland into the 21st century is engagingly written but geared toward more scholarly audiences. Excellent source of knowledge about outstanding individuals, major turning points, and origins of such memorable mottos as " for our freedom and yours" which reverberated through the long history of struggles for Poland's independence and freedom during the 19th and 20th centuries. Norman Davies, God’s Playground: A History of Poland (several editions between 1981 and 2005) The first of the “modern” studies of Poland, this detailed history in two volumes (Volume 1: The origins to 1795 and Volume 2: 1795 to the present) is also widely viewed as one of the best English-language works on the subject. Davies is widely known as a prolific writer and an expert on Polish and European history. Norman Davies, Europe: A History (1995) A highly innovative work that gives proper attention to Poland’s place in European history. From the review section of Good Reads website: "....histories should neither be told as stories or as simply a collection of facts, but something in between: Davies does it to near perfection. The writing is smooth and easily understandable for all." John Radzilowski, A Traveller’s History of Poland (2007, 2nd edition in 2014) Not a travelogue but an outstanding account of Poland's complex history and Poles' invincible spirit. Designed for general audiences, this clearly written and well- organized book includes numerous illustrations, maps, timelines, lists of historical figures, and a gazetteer.

  • Introduction to the Programme
    BLANK PAGES OF MUSIC 7TH EDITION INTRODUCTION TO THE PROGRAMME THE IDEA OF THE PROGRAMME The idea of the programme “Blank Pages of Music” run by the Institute of Music and Dance is to support academic research related to little known or neglected areas of Polish music. The scope of the third edition of the programme was extended to include research on Polish dance and dance in Poland. The programme’s operating principle is its inclusiveness. The research may be devoted to Polish music and dance in the broadest time and genre perspective. By “blank pages” the creators of the programme understand all subjects related to Polish music or dance which have never been studied before, or have been studied only partially, fragmentally, or superficially. Consequently, the programme is addressed not only to musicologists and theoreticians of music or dance, but also specialists in broadly understood humanities, e.g. in sociology, culture studies, theatre studies, as well as instrumentalists and teachers. As regards music research, apart from studies devoted to the 800 years of Polish classical music’s history and the broad spectrum of phenomena related to it – ranging from the oldest musical pieces to the most contemporary ones – the programme is open to studies of other musical genres, such as traditional music, jazz, film music or popular music. The research may be devoted to reception of music, performance, musicological activity, education, broadly understood contemporary music culture, analysis and interpretation of different phenomena, preparation of musical works reconstructions, catalogues of artistic output, databases, studies of source materials, etc. To be eligible for the programme, research projects on dance should also be devoted to areas where bank pages are most frequent – the history, theory and aesthetics of Polish dance, in particular performance dance.
