Andrzej Dobrowolski (September 9, 1921 – August 8, 1990) was a Polish

State Higher School of Music, becoming a Professor at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Graz in 1976, where he taught composition and electronic music.[1]

Dobrowolski was one of the first Polish composers to concentrate on music for tape, and one of the first to pioneer the combination of pre-recorded tape and live performers.[2] He was one of the first composers to use the Experimental Studio of the Polish Radio in Warsaw, which was founded in 1958.[1]
