Discussion: Polish Radio Experimental Studioforgotten heritage?

Polish Radio Experimental Studio was founded in 1957 and was, at that time, one of the first of  such institutions worldwide (along with similar centers in Paris, Köln and Mediolan). During over 40 years of its activity hundreds of compositions were created in the Studio. The achievements of the Experimental Studio are the important, but still underestimated, heritage of electroacoustic music.
