Born into a count’s family, he studied privately under Szymanowski before moving to Paris to study under Dukas and Boulanger. Unlike many of his compatriots, he remained active in Poland, but because he openly criticized the regime and the country’s insularity, he was unjustly ignored despite his talent. It is a remarkable achievement that his works are finally being released in a comprehensive collection, performed by Tomasz Konieczny (with accompaniment by Lew Napierala, who also performed with Konieczny at the highly acclaimed 2025 Tokyo Spring Music Festival).\nHis songs are considered particularly outstanding, and many are based on contemporary poetry by Miłosz, Iwaszkiewicz, and Jasienski. Furthermore, Konieczny delivers a compelling performance of Michalski’s heartfelt cries—torn between history and politics—including “Salvation,” which sublimates the trauma of World War II, and “Eight Songs on Poems by Herbert,” which witnessed the activities of the 1980s “Solidarity” movement.\nTokyo M Plus\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anaklasis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52699442676001,"sku":"5907795212647","price":5391.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/5907795212647.jpg?v=1779022663","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/5907795212647","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
