full score. Introductory
texts presented in
English, German, and
Polish. The Lithuanian
Rhapsody (Rapsodia
litewska), Op. 11 is the
third - after Returning
Waves and Eternal Songs -
of the six symphonic
poems by Mieczyslaw
Karlowicz. Composition
was probably taking shape
during the summer months
of 1906 in Warsaw.
Lithuanian Rhapsody
differs significantly
from the other parts of
'programme cycle' which
Mieczyslaw Karlowicz's
symphonic poems may be
regarded as forming. This
is a work based primarily
on thematic material
derived from folk output
(something that would
never again occur in the
composer's brief
biography), compared with
the earlier score of
Eternal Songs or the
later Stanislaw and Anna
Oswiecim it displays much
greater stylistic
independence of the
German music embodied
around the turn of the
twentieth century.
