Known in the west mostly for his organ symphonies, Nowowiejski also composed a substantial body of solo piano music, much of which is based on Polish folk elements as are seven of the pieces on this first volume. The preludes and ballades are somewhat sterner stuff (although the dance-pieces glare as much as they smile), offering a glance into the soul of a Rachmaninovian late romantic.
