Here is one of several Polish romantic composers whom Acte Préalable
will be introducing to the world (many are not in English-language
music encyclopedias) as they continue their program of unearthing
worthy compatriots from both the 19th and 20th centuries. Dobrzynski's
quintets (no dates are given but the use of the Polish national anthem
in the slow movement of the first suggests 1848 or thereabouts) are
mainly concerned with melody, lyricism and lightly dancing minuet
movements. Even that national anthem movement, marked "Doloroso ma non
troppo lento", is, at the most, wistful as a Mendelssohnian sunniness
spreads warmth throughout these two engaging 35-minute pieces.
