Abstract
The article focuses on the presence of music in the commemoration of the various anniversaries of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. The author creates the category of “musical commemoration” through which she describes the ways, strategies, and forms that both composers and those responsible for the construction of the program have adopted and are adopting. Describing the repertoire of anniversary concerts and celebrations, she also outlines the historical and political changes that are also noticeable in the choice of compositions and the nature of the events. It also addresses the subject of new works commissioned by various artists and their role, importance and relevance to the commemoration of the fighting in the uprising. The article seeks to explain why the role of music during the celebration so crucial, and what content the organizers’ repertoire choices is may carry.
