Summary: | The article discusses the presence of Feliks Nowowiejski’s music in American musical culture, particularly among the Polish diaspora, during the composer’s lifetime and nowadays. Born in East Prussia and educated in German schools, through contacts with the Polish diaspora, Nowowiejski quickly became an advocate of Polishness in the field of music in Poland and abroad. The paper briefly quotes the scarce sources available which document the performances and reception of Quo Vadis? and the composer’s other works overseas, thus complementing our knowledge about the presence of Nowowiejski’s music on the other hemisphere of the world. |
