Harnasie is a ballet-pantomime written by the Polish composer Karol Szymanowski (op. 55, 1923-1931), with a screenplay by the composer himself and Jerzy Rytard. The work is staged in two acts and three pictures, framed by a prelude and epilogue.
It was first performed in 1935 in Prague, and a year later in Paris by the dancer and choreographer Serge Lifar, which was an exceptional success for Szymanowski nearly a year before his death. The Polish premiere took place in Poznań in 1938.
