Jan Wański
(Wielkopolska, 2 June 1756 - Poznań, c.1830)

Violinist and composer. Almost nothing is known about his early years. He was professionally active for 30 years, first in Poznań and later in other places in Wielkopolska, such as Sarnowa (near Rawicz), Święciechowa, Wschowa and Gostyń. As a composer, he wrote operas, among them, 'Pasterz nad Wisłą' and 'Kmiotek', sacred music, symphonies and other instrumental and secular works. His works, based on elementary forms and in a Classical style, were enriched by elements of Polish folk music, which are present even in his Latin masses. His brother Roch Wański (?-1808) was a cellist, his son Jan Nepomucen Wański (c.1800-1888) was a violinist and composer and his granddaughter Anna Wański was a pianist and teacher. His nephew was the famous polish composer Karol Kurpiński (1785-1857). #ClassicalMusic
