Description:
Composing her First Sonata in 1929, the barely 20-year-old Grażyna Bacewicz was taking her fi rst steps in the world of chamber music. At that time, Bacewicz was hugely infl uenced by the music of Karol Szymanowski, while at the same time seeking her own individual style. Studying both violin and piano at the same time gave her the perfect opportunity to perform her own works in concerts and thereby verify her compositional ideas. Together with the Second String Quartet and the Symphonietta, First Sonata formed part of the programme of her composition exam. Yet it has never been included in the offi cial catalogue of her works.
