I notice that the middle "l" in "Lutoslawski" has a slash.  I've run across
one or two other Polish names in which this means the slashed "l" sounds as
"w" does in English, but I don't know if this is always so.  If it is, this
would make the third syllable "swahv".  Would someone confirm or deny this
suggestion, please? We may as well get it right.
