Very interesting article with some new names alongside Bacewicz & Szymanowska.
Ailsa Dixon may have been channelling her Polish genes - her 3xgreat grandfather was Felix @yaniewicz whose portrait hung beside the piano in her childhood home.

Poland has long been a musical beacon but a renaissance in the country’s music, new and old, is being driven by surging interest in its female composers 🎼

A rare opportunity to hear @yaniewicz sparkling compositions, evocative of his cosmopolitan career, combining a recognizably Mozartian style from his Viennese period with the joyful exuberance of Polish folk dances from his homeland.
