Górecki's unpublished works prior to 1956 include: Legenda for orchestra, five mazurkas for piano, a prelude for violin and piano, ten preludes for piano, two songs, a Terzetto quasi una fantasia for oboe, violin and piano, a romance for piano, a string quartet, Obratzki poetyckie for piano and a piano concerto. These don't have opus numbers.
One scholar assigns Op. number 9a to a suite for piano titled "Z ptasiego gniazda" which Górecki wrote November 1956. Earlier that year, Górecki set to music a translation to Polish of one of Federico García Lorca's poems by Mikołaj Bieszczadowski, but Górecki revised it in 1980 and it was published with another translated Lorca poem as the two songs of Op. 42.
