Witold Lutoslawski


Witold Lutosławski (January 25, 1913, Warsaw, Poland - February 7, 1994, Warsaw) was a Polish composer.

Despite developing his technique under Nazi and Stalinist censorship and repression, Lutosławski is Poland's most famous composer after Chopin and has made use of twelve tone and aleatoric techniques. Unlike the majority of modern composers, Lutosławski is well-represented in commercial recordings.

Pieces include: Cello Concerto, Symphony #3, String Quartet, Double Concerto for Oboe and Harp, Chantefleurs et Chantefables.
