Grażyna Bacewicz (5 February 1909 – 17 January 1969) was a Polish composer and violinist.
Style
Bacewicz is generally labelled neoclassical, but with a discernible stylistic evolution from (1) early influence of Szymanowski and assimilation of French neoclassicism (Boulanger), (2) to her own mature neoclassical style created in her second period, 1944-1958, and to (3) a period of stylistic experimentation with sonorism, 12-tone techniques, aleatoricism, and collage. -- adapted from https://polishmusic.usc.edu/research/publications/polish-music-journal/vol5no1/grazyna-bacewicz-life-and-works/
Grażyna Bacewicz’s
Style evolved,
At first neoclassic,
But then more involved.
In fact, in her fifties
She put in her bids
To try out the latest
And keep up with the kids.
