Me too, Jerry. Other files from Mediafire work - this particular one doesn't.

I try to re-upload it but in fact still have a problem. Will keep trying

[markniew]

It seems that the new link to the Deszczyński works correctly

[jerfilm]

Yes, thanks, Marek.   And thank you for uploading it in the first place......

Performance done during the Warsaw Autumn Festival of Modern Music of 1988

source: LP of 1988 and because of that the sound quality is not very high but I do not have other version.

Thank you very much for the Deszczynski chamber music... just my cuppa-tea!

May I now request the Deszczynski Piano Concerto, please, Marek?

[Alan Howe]

Comment from EarlyRomantic:

Guys, I, again, can't access the adjusted Zelenski offerings. Additionally, the Deszczynski is off limits to me as well. Others of you seem to be getting them after initial trouble. They state that the files are "invalid and corrupt". Does any one have helpful advice for me? Thanks in advance if so.

Something odd must be going on with MediaFire.  It's just after 7 AM Monday here in Minnesota and I just tried, successfully, to re-download the Deszczynski.    It took two tries but not unusual for AOL.....

Thank you A.S. for the symphony by Szałowski. Symphony dates from 1939.
Recording was done for Polsih radio in 1950.

In one of my books I have found that Symphony was lost. It seems to be not true.

Few words on Szałowski can be found in wikipedia:

Frank,

I do have only two performances of the Symphony in a Square by Kisielewski. I believe there are also others for radio archives. The piece was written in 1978.

The total time of the performance you have uploaded (17:33) indicates that it is most likely played by Orchestra of the Silesian Philharmony, conductor is Jerzy Swoboda.
Movements are: 1. Allegro energico, 2. Allegretto, 3. Andante cantabile, 4. Allegro molto energico.
It was issued on LP by Polskie Nagrania in 1990 with Polish National Radio SO under Renard Czajkowski. Total tim eof that recording was 20:00 (side B of the LP). Other pieces on side A were: Intermezzo for Clarinet and Piano, Serenada for Piano and 7 Songs to texts by. K. I. Gałczyński

Thanks again for your help, Marek. If there are some Polish works you would like for me to upload, please let me know.

Is there any reason for that rather unusual moniker?
