Abstract
In 2022, there was published an interesting book by Polish musicologist Danuta Gwizdalanka Mieczyslaw Weinberg: a Composer of Three Worlds in n a good translation into Russian by Alexey Davtyan. This is a joint project of the Musical Review newspaper and the Adam Mickiewicz Institute (within the framework of the cultural program “NIEPODLEGLA” coordinated by the Institute for 2017–2022), which cannot but be welcomed. The composer’s family attentively and gratefully studies all available publications devoted to the life and work of M. S. Weinberg. Especially when we stumble across books in which the authors seek to supply the composer's biography with newly discovered facts, testimonies, documents, along with serious art studies in scientific journals and monographs. Such reaction is by no means aimed at curbing the creative, research, critical initiative of biographers and analysts in our country and abroad. The composer’s heirs are grateful to the Musical Review and the St. Petersburg branch of the Composer Publishing House for organizing a high-quality Russian translation and publication of D. Gwizdalanka's book in Russia. This made it possible to study the new monograph in detail and note its indisputable advantages, as well as obvious drawbacks.
