The competition is sponsored by the Teatr Narodowy, Warsaw and organized by Maria Foltyn, artistic director of the competition, who founded it six years ago. Details in next month's newsletter or fax Poland direct: 011-48-22-692- 0642. All singers are encouraged to apply. This might be an unforgettable experience! A new set of Three Dances composed by Juliusz ZAREBSKI (1854-1885) and orchestrated by Franz LISZT, was found in Brussels among family papers of Ernest Vanderlinden (a descendent of Franz Servais, a student of Liszt). Zarebski also studied with Liszt and the music journal Strings reports that this "manuscript may have been Liszts last work before his death." According to the BBC Music Journal (September issue), two Polish pianists figure in the "Who's Who in Music?" list. Krystian ZIMERMAN as part of the "establishment" and Piotr ANDERSZEWSKI as "new blood" coming in. Bravo for Piotr! I remember him when he was a student at USC. He and his sister, violinist Dorota, gave many memorable performances for the Polish-American community in southern California. They were especially electrifying in their rendition of Hungarian music (their mother is Hungarian).

Desktop SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER MUSIC CRITIC Piotr Anderszewski, the Polish-Hungarian pianist who made his Seattle debut Wednesday night at Meany Hall, is a musician who has gone his own way since the start of his career more than a decade ago. MUSIC REVIEW PIANIST PIOTR ANDERSZEWSKI WHEN: Wednesday night He plays the music he wants to play regardless of what he thinks presenters want to present, audiences want to hear, recording companies want to record. And he has succeeded because he does what he does so well and so persuasively. His European career is already vigorous, and his American career is gathering momentum. The Seattle concert, almost 2 1/2 hours, began with Beethoven's massive "Diabelli" Variations. Most pianists see them as a final statement in the concert hall. Not Anderszewski. They are his signature piece, as extraordinary as that seems, and his opening gambit. That takes nerve: The 33 variations on a rather silly waltz last about an hour.
