Abstract

Te reactions in Germany are interesting because of the special political and ideological situation and the relations between Poland and the German Reich. The author’s aim was to collect articles, obituaries and mentions of the Polish composer that appeared in the German-language press in 1937, published mostly in Germany, but also in Austria and Switzerland. These are quotedat length in the appendix. Although the selection is far from exhaustive, this anthology may prove to be a useful source for scholars studying Szymanowski’s life and legacy
