Summary/Abstract: Diplomatic and economic relations between Poland and the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (from 1929 the Kingdom of Yugoslavia) from 1918 to 1939 have been presented in numerous texts; there are, however, no studies concerning cooperation in the field of musical life. This report, based on archive research, analyses the music presented by the main concert organiser in Croatia’s main city of Zagreb, the Croatian Music Institute, with regard to the presence of Polish works. The appendix contains the names of Polish composers and a list of works performed.
