Grażyna Bacewicz was a Polish composer who also worked as a violinist. She composed works for orchestra and for violin and piano. The techniques employed in her Piano Quintet No. 2 (1965), which incorporated avant-garde virtuosity, garnered attention not only within Poland but also internationally. Bacewicz's style, developed through studies in Poland and Paris, is characterized by its utilization of virtuosic effects for string instruments within a neoclassical framework.
