The Guitar in the Polish Music Periodicals “Poradnik Muzyczny” (1947–1989) and “Przegląd Muzyczny” (1990–1991)

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present the contents of two music journals, Poradnik Muzyczny [Music Guide] and Przegląd Muzyczny [Music Review], published by the Ludowy Instytut Muzyczny [People’s Institute of Music] in Łódź, with a focus on subjects related to classical guitar and guitar music in Poland. For many years, these periodicals, issued on a monthly or bimonthly basis, depending on the period of publication, were the primary platform for exchanging ideas about the guitar in Poland. These journals published historical and methodological articles on the guitar, reports on guitar events, reviews of publications for the instrument, and original compositions and arrangements for guitar solo as well as for ensembles with the guitar.
