Abstract

Book Reveiw of: Iwona Lindstedt, „Piszę tylko muzykę”. Kazimierz Serocki, Kraków 2020.

Iwona Lindstedt's book about Serocki is one of the most valuable PWM Edition's offers, addressed to a wide audience. It is demanding and extensive reading, as it eludes the category of pocket editions that are popular today, which dangerously touch upon the accusation of “everything and nothing at the same time”. It also does not seduce the reader with the social engineering narrative of debunking myths or sensational threads - which are perhaps readily attractive, but sometimes far from the so-called the most objectified truth possible. On the other hand, it is a reliable, well-documented image of the composer and his work, from genesis to resonance, with all the seriousness due to him, but with the lightness of the language of the novel, which draws people into the history of characters absolutely unique to Polish culture.
