    Polish composer. He gained international recognition for his unique avant-garde techniques. From the mid-1960s, he gravitated towards religious and traditional music. He studied under Artur Malawski and Stanisław Wiechowicz at the Academy of Music in Kraków. In Japan, his Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima (1960) for 52 string instruments is particularly well-known.
