Lutoslawski Quartet
Musicologist Adrian Thomas considered Grazyna Bacewicz's string quartets
"unrivalled in 20th-century Polish music and... one of the century's most significant
contributions to the genre". Her folk-music infused First Quartet dates from student
days at the Paris Conservatoire, while exceptional polyphonic skill, intense
emotion and playful, high spirits characterize the Third Quartet. Both the Sixth
and Seventh Quartets unite tradition with a strikingly effective and highly personal
exploration of progressive contemporary techniques. As Lutoslawski observed,
in the "rapidly changing artistic currents" of the times, "it was [Bacewicz's] music
which helped create that atmosphere".
