In 1942, Ignacy Jan Paderewski (1860-1941), the great Polish pianist and composer (and in 1919 prime minister of Poland for one year), was posthumously honoured with a deluxe edition for which many of his friends and pupils, such as Béla Bartók, Darius Milhaud, Bohuslav Martinu or Jaromír Weinberger, specially composed piano pieces. The limited edition then published by Boosey & Hawkes in New York has been out of print for a long time and is now newly printed to mark the 150th birthday of Paderewski in 2010.
Recorded by pianist Jonathan Plowright at Hyperion (CDA67903):
