Lutosławski also, around 1990, worked on a fourth symphony and his orchestral song-cycle "Chantefleurs et Chantefables" for soprano. The latter was first performed at a Prom concert in London in 1991, and the "Fourth Symphony" in 1993 in Los Angeles. In between, and after initial reluctance, Lutosławski took on the presidency of the newly reconstituted "Polish Cultural Council". This had been set up after the reforms in 1989 in Poland brought about by the almost total support for Solidarity in the elections of that year, and the subsequent end of communist rule and the reinstatement of Poland as an independent republic rather than the communist state of the People's Republic of Poland.
