This Concerto was written in 1948 and premiered in the following year by the composer herself and the Baltic Philharmonic under Stefan Sledzinski. With regard to its melodic, harmonic and rhythmic aspects, the composition is based on the folk music of the Podhale region. It is worth mentioning that Grazyna Bacewicz, who often performed the First Violin Concerto by Karol Szymanowski, had a vivid memory of this excellent model of a modern composition drawing on folk music. This three-movement Concerto has a highly distinct form and is lively and varied as regards its melody and thythm.
