Abstract

The paper recalls the figure of the leading writer of the Second Polish Republic, Juliusz Kaden- Bandrowski. Alluding to his biography and his acquired musical education in his youth, it makes the point that this influenced his artistic attitude. The center of analysis is Kaden-Bandrowski’s article devoted to Aleksander Michałowski, an excellent pianist in the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The main thesis of the article is Kanden-Bandrowski’s great respect forMichałowski’s work and creative effort, which he partially owed to his early musical education. The author also references to Kaden-Bandrowski’s critical texts from the beginning of his literary career as well as his association with the Fryderyk Chopin International Piano Competition; which began in 1927 in Warsaw. Kaden-Bandrowski was a member of the organizing committee for the first competition.
