The Penderecki Glacier ( Polish Lodowiec Pendereckiego ) is a glacier on King George Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . On the Krakow Peninsula, it flows between Vauréal Peak and Harnasie Hill to Geologists Cove , a side bay of Admiralty Bay , where the latter merges into Bransfield Street .
Polish scholars named it in 1980 after the Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki (* 1933).
