Kilka uwag o pijarskich muzykach z XVII i XVIII wieku: Stachowicz, Pasternacki, Szczawnicki, Caspar by Ryszard Mączyński

“…Artykuł niniejszy sprowokowany został lekturą tychże książek, lecz nie pretenduje ani do miana recenzji, ani do miana polemiki, ma natomiast na celu baczniejsze przyjrzenie się kilku szczegółowym zagadnieniom, które pojawiły się we wspomnianych pracach. Wynika to z poczucia, iż postać kompozytora Damiana Stachowicza (1658–99) jest tak doniosła w dziejach muzyki nie tylko polskiej, lecz i europejskiej, a kolekcja muzykaliów podolinieckich tak unikalna, choćby jedynie w odniesieniu do zakonu pijarskiego, że każda kwestia, nawet z pozoru drobna, jest godna rozważenia, niekiedy sprostowania, niekiedy uzupełnienia. …”
