Composers who worked in postwar Gdańsk came to the city from different part of the prewar Poland. Their cultural and educational background was related to their own local tradition, rather different than Gdańsk’s. Those personal experience made their music strongly bonded with their rooted tradition than with the region of Pomerania. To this group of composers belong Władysław Walentynowicz and Konrad Pałubicki. In fact in achievement of Henryk Hubertus Jabłoński we can observe much more references to the city of Gdańsk and Pomerania region because of his prewar Gdańsk’s roots. From this perspective we can noticed that diversity of artistic paths have its deep source in musical experience of personal musical origin and tradition.
