Sorry to comment so late on this - I've meant to do so for some time. Totally agree about the quality of the music of Bacewicz - very fine composer. I first heard her music in the early 70s - I was at the RNCM, and there was a piano recital by Alicja Fiderkiewicz (at that time just starting out): she ended with Bacewicz's sonata no.2. It blew me away: I went out and ordered a copy the next day (since then, I've occasionally performed the second movement - not (as yet anyway) the whole thing.)

I missed all this, but I did pick up the CD of her Piano sonata #2 and piano quintets 1&2 on DG last year. Wonderful.
