Danse vive was written in 1939 and had its first performance, as did most works of this time, as mentioned by the composer, in the famous occupation Art Salon at Ulica Nowy wiat 27 in Warsaw, led by Boles aw Woytowicz. Lech Miklaszewski made the first archival recording of the piece for Polish Radio in September 1946. After a long period of obscurity, Danse Vive appeared unexpectedly during the inaugural concert of the VII International Festival of Contemporary Music, Warsaw Autumn, on 21st September 1963. W adys aw K dra, after performing Tadeusz Szeligowskis Piano Concerto with the Symphony Orchestra of Polish Radio conducted by Jan Krenz, played Kisielewskis piece as an encore. Mieczys aw Tomaszewski in conversation with Joanna Pruszy ska defines Danse Vive as Toccata 41. Indeed - the free, almost improvised form, the figurative texture and at the same time the uniform lines inlaid with sforzandi syncopated rhythms (although changing time signatures several times) give the composition such a nature. But at the same time Danse Vive can be described as an apotheosis of a Krakowiak, a lively, Galician dance, whose full theme at 44 is shown only once in the piece, after a thickening, figurative outset, not at all reminiscent of folk melodies. [M. G siorowska, Kisielewski, PWM 2011].

Dès l’époque de Chopin, les musiciens polonais commencèrent à faire de Paris une destination de prédilection. La capitale française devint même, dans l’entre-deux-guerres, leur seconde capitale musicale, tant son effervescence cosmopolite les attirait. La création polonaise rayonna dans de nombreux domaines et les archives (presse française, programmes de concerts, correspondances) révèlent l’ampleur et l’importance de cette présence. Certains d’entre eux, tels que la pianiste et claveciniste Wanda Landowska ou la cantatrice Marya Freund, s’étaient installés avant la Grande Guerre. La scène parisienne accueillit de grands virtuoses, notamment le pianiste et compositeur Ignacy Jan Paderewski, les violonistes Paul Kochański et Bronisław Huberman. De jeunes talents, Feliks Łabuński, Piotr Perkowski, Antoni Szałowski, Tadeusz Szeligowski et Maria Modrakowka, formèrent l’Association des jeunes musiciens polonais. Paris libéra leur énergie créatrice. Cet ouvrage explore la dimension socioculturelle de ce phénomène en dressant des portraits individuels et collectifs de musiciens qui choisirent de lier leur destin à une ville actrice à part entière de cette histoire.
