Summary/Abstract: In her paper, the author presented a short biography of Stanisław Kwiatkowski, a Pomeranian composer and organist. She described the genesis of his "Academic Mass" and quoted a few reflections of the audience on the piece after they had heard it in Polish and international musical theatres. The text also provides a lot of information on the music and rhythmic structure of the piece, on the composer’s techniques and means of expression, and ways of performing some of the works. The output of the Academic Choir of the University of Gdańsk, which was the first to perform the "Academic Mass" by Stanisław Kwiatkowski, is also included in the paper.
