about
Bazyli Bohdanowicz (born in 1740 in Eastern Lesser Poland , died on February 23, 1817 in Vienna ) was a Polish composer and violinist. In 1775 he moved permanently to Vienna, where he was a violinist in the Leopoldstädter Theater orchestra in Vienna. In the years 1785-1803 he organized concerts with the participation of the whole family (wife and 8 children), during which were performed, among others: the 3-part sonata for violin Les prémices du monde (played on one instrument by 3 children), Non plus ultra for 4 female voices and violin (played on one instrument by 3 children and a father), 3-part Sinfonía vocale ed origínale senza parole for 8 vocal voices, choir and pipes called Sprach-tone, Aria con variazioni for solo soprano, andantino with variations Rareté extraordinaire de la musique for piano for 8 hands, concert with cadenzaEuropa's Erstling for 3 vocal voices accompanied by a whistle and orchestra. Bohdanowicz's circus performances sparked criticism and earned him the nickname of a "musical charlatan". He composed a symphony in which he adapted motifs of Polish folk music, one vocal symphony, also polonaises and other dances, two violin duets, other works of chamber music and a piano etude for four hands.
