She lived a remarkable life in Poland, navigating the complex world of Polish communist society and Soviet dominance after the Second World War, and brought Polish music to wider European attention. The Element describes the historical context of her life, her major achievements, and the language and development of her compositions, which attracted notable interest in Polish musical life.

In her sixty years she achieved impressive triumphs as a women composer, served the Polish Composers Union and often judged major international competitions.
