Ewa Bandrowska-Turska: Polish soprano - Karol Szymanowski
Born in 1882 Karol Szymanowski was one of the truly outstanding composers of the first half of the (More) Born in 1882 Karol Szymanowski was one of the truly outstanding composers of the first half of the 20th Century. He was certainly the greatest and most influential Polish composer of that period. His works included four symphonies, two violin concertos, the operas „Hagith" „King Roger", the ballet-pantomime „Harnasie", the oratorio „Stabat Mater", as well as numerous piano, violin, vocal and choral compositions. His career as a composer can most easily be envisaged as being in three very distinct phases. Szymanowski's early works before the First World War display a strong affinity with the work of Fryderyk Chopin, Alexander Skriabin, Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss. The subsequent period of his development was characterised by a fascination with the Orient and with Mediterranean cultures during which he was clearly influenced by the French impressionists Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. This period produced many of his best known and loved compositions. From 1921 his music became increasingly distinctive as he drew upon Polish folk themes, especially from the Podhale mountain region around Zakopane, to define a specifically Polish music. This period produced much of his very greatest work. Afflicted by disease and financial concerns, Szymanowski effectively ceased to compose from 1934. He died in 1937 at the age of 57 leaving behind an outstanding collection of works that are today more loved, and more widely performed and recorded than ever before. One if his creations including homoerotic threads was opera „King Roger", composed within 1918-1924 and premiered in Warsaw, 1926. The scene of the drama is laid in the XII century Kingdom of Sicily, ruled by King Roger the 2nd, from a Norman line of kings. ............................. Ewa Bandrowska-Turska (1894 -1979), one of the most talented and versatile Polish soprano singers; she was a niece of the great Polish singer, Aleksander Bandrowski. First was taught by the singer Helena Zboińska-Ruszkowska who after six month lectures stated that Ewa should had already gone her own way. Her debut took place In 1919, soon she was performing in „Faustus" in the Warsaw Opera, being a soloist of the scene. Began to make her concerts outside Poland, in Germany, Austria and mainly France where she was invited by the group „jeunes musiciens polonais". Soon it turned out that Bandrowska-Turska had a special talent and predispositions for a modern and contemporary repertoire; started to sing songs by Maurice Ravel and Albert Roussel, having been accompanied by those composers. In Poland, she became one of the first interpreters of compositions made by Karol Szymanowski; from these times the present recording dates. She sang in Opéra Comique, Paris, Ostenda, Brussels, Nicea, various places in Italy, New York and Chicago. Her recitals were received with great enthusiasms in Soviet Russia, she became an important ambassador of Polish music and culture. She performed for the last time on the Warsaw Opera stage in 1960, died in 1979. The present record, from my collection, shows Bandrowska-Turska's vocal talent for the first time recorded in electrical system for the Polish Odeon in 1930: Aria of Roxana "King Roger" Symphony Orchester Conducted by Dr Weissmann 1930 Some audio traces of the steel needle once having been used, can be unfortunately heard.
