The article reports the results of a document search conducted after the death of Krystyna Wilkowska Chominska (the widow of Professor Józef M. Chominski) at their house in Falenica near Warsaw. The search revealed two unknown complete typewritten monographs. The first of them, entitled 'Zagadnienia konstruktywne w piesni solowej Edwarda Griega' (Construction Issues in the Solo Songs of Edward Grieg) (1936) is Chominski's doctoral thesis, written under the supervision of Professor Adolf Chybinski at the Jan Kazimierz University in Lvov. In its day it was the first mongraph devoted to Grieg's vocal-instrumental works. Chominski considers the melodics, the rhythmics of the melody, then the harmonic relationship including both the factors stabilising harmonic tonality and the undermining ones, and finally the structure of the composition, with the traditional division into forms with verses and recomposed ones. The second monograph is a theoretical treatise 'Podstawy harmoniki funkcyjnej. Kurs elementarny nauki harmonii' (The Fundamentals of Harmonics. An Elementary Course in Harmony) (1947). This work continues the tradition of Riemann's theory of functional harmony, and its theoretical-symbolic base draws on the nomenclature employed by Hermann Erpf (1927). The textbook starts with an exposition of less complex chords, and goes on to discuss multiple sounds of greater morphological complexity. However, the book does not simply teach how to construct chords, since in reality the particular chapters are devoted mainly to chords' functional potential.

The article reports the results of an archival search in the 'Archiwum Glówne Akt Dawnych' (The Central Archive od Historical Records) in Warsaw. The source was: 'Ksiegi metrykalne wyznania mojzeszowego z terenów tzw. zabuzanskich z lat 1814-1939 (Registers of Jewish Faith from the Area beyond the Bug, 1814-1939) (Set No 300/I-II: documents Nos: 374 (ref. 1891), 124 (ref. 2200), 58 (ref. 2205) and 282 (ref. 2341)). The documents chiefly concern records of the Jewish Community of Stryj (now in Ukraine) relating to the family of the prominent Polish composer of the interwar period - Józef Koffler (1896-1944). These records include: the birth certificate of Józef Koffler; the birth certificate of the composer's sister, Gitel Reizel; the marriage certificate of the composer's parents, Hersch Koffler and Rebeka Schönfeld; and the birth certificate of his brother Schulim. The author also analyses records entered in later years in the registers of the Jewish community, especially those concerning: a declaration relating to the adoption of the children of Józef and Gitel Reizel born out of wedlock, the change of name from 'Gitel Reizel' to 'Gizela', and a declaration relating to Józef Koffler leaving the Jewish community. The search brings new information about the composer's family, and makes it possible to correct a number of errors relating to this subject.
