Bach and Poland in the 18th Century

A presentation by Szymon Paczkowski PH.D.

 University of Warsaw

In 1736 Bach became Koniglich-Polnischer und Kurfiirstlich-Sachsischer Hof-Compositeur [Royal Po­ lish and Electoral Saxon Court Composer]. This well-known and frequently-cited title begs to address questions concerning the composer's Polish connections in the 18th century, yet the topic remains sur­ prisingly unexplored, even by Polish researchers.
