hahaha I was waiting for that, wondering why it appeared so late, Mr Iron Fascist. :):)
What is so special about it?
I deem it special and that`s completely enough coz my fancy is the primary goal here. You can moan and whine but I always do what I want. Isn`t it simple??. :):):)
The next person on the list of Poles with Jewish background we haven`t mentioned here is Henryk Wieniawski, a famous violinist and composer. I read a funny anecdote about him - one day he spotted a poor musician unsuccessfully trying to earn some money in the street - Wieniawski asked for the instrument and played a few pieces, causing enthusiasm among the audience.

His father, Tobiasz Pietruszka (Wolf Helman), was the son of a Jewish barber named Herschel Meyer Helman, from the Jewish Lublin neighborhood of Wieniawa. Tobiasz Pietruszka changed his name to Tadeusz Wieniawski, taking on the name of his neighborhood to blend into his Polish environment better. Prior to obtaining his medical degree, he had converted to Catholicism. He married Regina Wolff, the daughter of a noted Jewish physician from Warsaw.Listen to his energetic music based on folk traditions
