List of compositions by Henryk Górecki

List of compositions by Henryk Górecki

This list of compositions by Henryk Górecki is sorted by opus number. Much of Górecki's work has been published by Boosey & Hawkes, [Boosey & Hawkes online catalog] which holds the rights for most of the world except in "countries of the former socialist copyright federation," where Polskie Wydawnictwo Muzyczne holds the rights. [Thomas (1997): 150]

"This list is incomplete because it does not list all of Górecki's unpublished works nor all of his works after 1997."

Unpublished works

Górecki's unpublished works prior to 1956 include: "Legenda" for orchestra, five Mazurkas for piano, a Prelude for violin and piano, ten preludes for piano, two songs ("Przez te łąki. przez te pola" and "Kiedy Polska"), a Terzetto quasi una fantasia for oboe, violin and piano, a Romance for piano, a String Quartet, "Obratzki poetyckie" for piano and a Piano Concerto. These don't have opus numbers.

One scholar assigns opus number 9a to a suite for piano titled "Z ptasiego gniazda" ("From the Bird's Nest") which Górecki wrote November 1956. [Thomas (1997): 153] Earlier that year, Górecki set to music a translation to Polish of one of Federico García Lorca's poems by Mikołaj Bieszczadowski, but Górecki revised it in 1980 and it was published with another translated Lorca poem as the two songs of Opus 42. [Thomas (1997): 152]
