Conversations with Witold Lutos

Witold Lutoslawski (1913-1994), who claimed that 'talking was not his speciality', emerges during a series of conversations with the music critic Tadeusz Kaczynski as a most lucid and articulate commentator, not only on his own compositions, but on every aspect of twentieth-century music and musicianship. This updated record of those conversations makes for compelling and thought-provoking reading, offering a fascinating insight into the mind of this great composer.
