A highly satisfying survey of Karol Szymanowski's late Romantic and Modernist works, this Gemini double-disc is a compilation of recordings originally made for EMI between 1974 and 1981. Szymanowski's development is chronologically traced in the orchestral music, commencing with bold strokes of Straussian color in the early Concert Overture and ...

If you're only ever going to get one set of violin concertos, you might well consider this set for your one and only. While it's true that there are several glaring omissions -- no Brahms, no Bach, no Prokofiev Second, and no Bruch First through Third -- and while it's also true that some of the recordings are virtually prehistoric -- several are ...

Karol Szymanowski: Piano Sonata No. 3; Métopes; Masques (2005) more music like this

performed by Piotr Anderszewski (piano)
composed by Karol Szymanowski

Piotr Anderszewski has finally been able to record some of the music of Karol Szymanowski, and it has been worth the wait. This is a brilliant performance of music that is rich in so many ways and that deserves a wider audience outside of the composer's homeland. The three works here were written between 1915 and 1917 and, therefore, share many ...

composed by Edvard Grieg, Karol Szymanowski

The well-known Grieg Piano Concerto in A minor and the lesser-known Szymanowski Symphony No. 4 (Sinfonia Concertante) are an appropriate albeit unusual combination. Both composers were highly nationalistic and responsible at least in some part for the renaissance of classical music in their respective countries of Norway and Poland. Pianist ...

This CD, which includes three of Szymanowski's works for orchestra with vocal soloists and chorus, is a welcome reissue of EMI's 1994 recording of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra under Simon Rattle.

composed by Karol Szymanowski

There are those who swear that the Polish Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937) is the next big thing. They've been swearing it for a long time now: ever since the '60s, Szymanowski has been poised to reach the Top 40 classical composers, and he's never quite made it. With four style periods covering everything from late Romantic sensuality to high ...
