(Source of the above is a book published in 1940, and it gives no further information.)
Between 1937 to 1946, Jarecki and his wife divided their time between London and Paris. With the help of his wife Louise, he formed an organization in London for Polish composers and performers, and arranged for concerts of their music. Jarecki passed away on May 2, 1955. His output consisted of chamber, vocal, and symphonic work. Louise Jarecki was a composer as well. The Indiana University at Bloomington houses the Jarecki Archive.
