The monograph concerns one of the most important trends in
contemporary classical Polish music. The ‟new romanticism”
represented the reaction to the crisis of the avant-garde in the
70s. It appeared in works by the ‟1933 generation” (Penderecki,
Górecki, Kilar), ‟the Stalowa Wola generation” (Knapik,
Lasoń, Krzanowski), and others. This music matched tradition with
contemporary techniques and strong emotionalism. Its romantic
dimension and seriousness were in sheer contrast to the
‟double-coding” of Postmodernism. It stemmed from the political
situation in Poland during the ‟Iron Curtain” times. The book
also focuses on the topic’s American (Schonberg, Rochberg) and
European contexts. The author also analyzes 104 compositions and 30
interviews (incl. with Penderecki) to present an even fuller
picture.
