Abstract
The publication contains a scholarly introduction and a source-critical edition of 13 letters written by the Polish composer Roman Statkowski (1859–1925), a professor of the Warsaw Conservatory in the years 1904–1925, to his student Ludwika Trębicka (1889–1977). The original letters, written in the years 1919–1925, are part of the collection of materials related to Statkowski’s life, preserved in the Library, Museum and Archives of the Warsaw Music Society (PL-wtm-d 127/1–17). The correspondence presented in the article throws some light on Statkowski’s relations with his students and on his final years, during which he suffered from failing health and struggled against professional and artistic burnout and financial difficulties.
