Tadeusz Machl

Tadeusz Machl (* 22. October 1922 in Lemberg; † 31. August 2003 in Krakow) was a Polish composer, organist and music teacher. Machl had had piano lessons since the age of 10 and was a pupil of Helena Kasparek at the music school of his hometown. His plans to study at the Moscow Conservatory were prevented by the outbreak of the German-Soviet War in 1941. In the following years he took part in underground concerts in Lviv, where he accompanied Edward Statkiewicz, Andrzej Hiolski, Franciszek Bedlewicz and Romuald Cyganik at the piano.
