Sławomir Zachariewicz (b 1975, Kraków)

His website (with bio) has his piano works with free score download: etudes, waltzes, polonaises etc: https://zachariewicz.com/en/download-scores/

His Youtube channel has midi sound recordings: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5xxXc ... KMFUIwubvQ but I've heard some better performances of the works by other pianists on instagram.

I love the cover of the Op.6:
koczalski.jpg
Almost exact contemporary of countryman Ignaz Friedman (1882-1948) (Some sources put Koczalski's birth date as 1884,which would accord with age/dates on the Op.6 above). A not too-flattering comparison is made of K against F here: https://arbiterrecords.org/stinky-procl ... pins-heir/

A beautiful typography indeed, and yet

- a barbarism camer-pianiste, probably derived from the german kammerpianist, it should be "pianiste de la chambre (de sa Majesté)"
- some spelling mistakes : Majesté and not Majestè, Shah and not Schah

"Chevalier des ordres" : I wonder which ones ? Malta ??

The late Mr Allan Evans was exceedingly prejudiced againt Koczalski. He could be uneven but some recordings are very good, the Etudes for instance. I am particularly fond of the concerto in f minor with Celibidache & the Berliner SO.

Old scores were very poorly copy-edited. Many common Italian music terms are misspelled, usually doubling the wrong letters.
