Description:
Václav Jan Tomášek was one of the most important Bohemian musicians of the first half of the 19th century. He was a sought after composer, pianist and also a successful music teacher. As a composer, he laid down the foundations of modern Czech song writing to German and Czech texts, and in piano composing he helped the development of a new form – the ‘characteristic’ piece. The research carried out over the last five years shows that the sources relating to Tomášek’s life and work, are dispersed all over Central Europe. The most important collection, including the composer’s estate, survives in the National Museum – Czech Music Museum, Prague. The composer’s estate was presented to the Museum in 1874 by his heir and nephew, Baron Eduard Tomaschek. The full contents of the estate, which was not listed, are not exactly known. It seems that the collection contained most of Tomaschek’s compositions. There are more autographs and handwritten copies than printed scores. An unknown amount of non-musical documents, also inherited by the nephew Eduard, was, at the beginning of the 20th century, in the private collections of the music publisher M. Urbánek and F. Donebauer, from whom the Tomášek materials were acquired by R. Morawetz. Most of the documents, dealt with by the specialist press of the first three decades of the 20th century, are today considered lost. Discovery of V. J. Tomášek’s estate papers, including his last will, supported some traditional beliefs about the estate, and also brought completely new information.

Description:
One of the current goals of research concerning the Czech national rebirth is clarification of the coexistence of Czech and German cultures in the Czech lands during the first half of the nineteenth century. V. J. Tomášek (1774–1850), one of the most important musicians of this period, was a Czech not only officially: he felt himself to be Czech, and supported the Czech language and culture. However, as an adult he probably spoke and wrote more in German, as confirmed by preserved writings of his such as correspondence, his autobiography, reviews, a catalogue of pupils, and his last will and testament. Moreover, in his vocal compositions, which form the main part of his output, most of the texts he set to music are in German. Tomá‰ek himself commented on his relation to the Czech language and Czech culture very briefly; testimony to his warm but modest patriotism is found in recollections written by his brother-in-law K. V. Hansgirg and his friend P. A. Klar. Tomášek’s cultural and national orientation is also documented by his contacts with Czech patriots and his work with the magazine Ost und West, which was intended for the Czech and Czech-German intelligentsia. Characteristic of Tomášek is patriotism attached to a geographical territory, whereby what was most important was his relationship to the land, its history, and its culture.
