Today, I’m starting a series of occasional posts to mark the centenary of the birth of Witold Lutosławski (1913-94). These posts (also linked to a new public Facebook page Lutosławski WL100) will be an informal sequence of memories, observations and photos. The series is intended to be both celebratory and reflective in nature, drawing together recollections, documents and images that are little known or perhaps just forgotten.
Contributions welcome – do get in touch if you have a suggestion.

I’m looking forward to this wonderful initiative. Just to add my own little and unimportant recollection of this great composer and gentleman pure sang, I can reveal that he liked Russian dish bliny with caviar. Anyway that was what he ate (and recommended to others) during a dinner of the PWM Edition’s director Grzegorz Michalski (M.Tomaszewski’s successor) and two directors of the Chester Music London. I witnessed this as Michalski’s assistant. Elzbieta
