Edward Stefan Łodwigowski (14 August[ citation needed] 1815 [1] [2] – 12 November 1895 [1]) was Polish composer.
Born near Iłża [3] [4] in 1815, he first studied music privately [1] with his father, who was a kapellmeister. [2] He died, when Łodwigowski was 12. [2] He stayed in Warsaw since 1840. [3] In 1854 he was residing at Robert Bothe's house in the Nowy Świat Street. [5]
His compositions, though being at best of middle-importance, were successful, especially mazurkas, polonaises and cracoviennes. [1] [3] He also published some transcriptions from Stanisław Moniuszko's operas. [1] By the end of his life, Łodwigowski was an old-fashioned pianist and taught the basics of music. [1] He died in Warsaw on his 80th year. [1]
