About

The Polish composer Lutoslawski is one of the towering figures of 20th century music. His Concerto for Orchestra can stand comparison to the famous example by Bartók, and Mi-parti, from 1976, has become a modern classic.

These recordings, directed by the composer in 1976/7, contain all the orchestral music he had written up to that point, and are essential listening for all who are interested in 20th century music.

It’s my guess that posterity will judge Witold Lutowslaski among the supreme twentieth century musical colourists. All in all, this must surely count as the introduction to Lutoslawski’s symphonic world.’ - Gramophone reviewing the original release
