Karlowicz finished the first of his six symphonic poems, Returning Waves, in 1904. With it, he established the melancholy tone characteristic of much of his mature work. In accompanying notes he spoke of gazing at ‘lifeless ice crystals on the window pane’; a similar image was used by Turgenev, his favourite writer, in An Unhappy Girl, in which unrequited love leads the heroine to take her own life. Karlowicz’s subject is overwhelmed by memories of a young woman, the happiness she seemed to promise, and her eventual rejection of him. The composer was undoubtedly inspired in part by his own unhappy experiences. The work consists of an introduction and four main sections, including a waltz of hedonistic abandon with clear echoes of Richard Strauss, the one contemporary composer whom Karlowicz admired
