About

For her debut album, pianist Joanna Sochacka performs works by Grażyna Bacewicz, including the world phonographic premieres of the Sonata (1930) and the Etude (1949).

“It is not very common to come across a composer whose genius is being praised, but whose music is more often discussed than performed at the same time. This is the paradoxical situation we are dealing with in the case of Grazyna Bacewicz and her compositional oeuvre.

“The creator herself was an outstanding figure, extremely versatile, belying the still popular in her time view that women, by their very nature, cannot act as creatively as men. Grażyna Bacewicz would successfully defy that deeply conditioned social belief that ‘female’ music is inferior.”
