The paper examines the issue of the musicalization of musical compositions. The question of evaluating a particular composition is in itself a very complex and often subjective matter. Reflection on our musical past is a natural process that can often revive almost forgotten works. The opposite can also happen, as the passage of time is an inexorable factor in the longevity of specific opuses. However, sometimes the evaluation of the work itself is logically accompanied by an assessment of its author, or rather his life story, attitudes, controversies, etc. The sensitive period of the 1950s in particular cast a dark shadow over a number of talented composers, who, however, set out in a direction incompatible with the views of subsequent generations. In this case too, one cannot measure by the so-called "same yardstick", as some truly found themselves in the newly established rules of art. But did others have a choice at all if they wanted to devote themselves to what they know and love? And can't we find similar cases elsewhere, abroad, among truly world-class composers?
