This study deals with the relationship of Prince Joseph Adam von Schwarzenberg to music and theatre and with the way in which his theatrical preferences revealed themselves in the repertoire of his private castle theatre in Cesky Krumlov from 1766 until 1768. Through a careful study of the extant sources (correspondence, libretti, scores and parts, accounting books etc.), the author has managed to specify the reasons for the precipitous renovation of the castle theatre in late 1765 and early 66 and to determine what specific dramatic works were performed there. Among other things, she has succeeded in compiling the entire list of performances planned for the fourteen-day wedding celebration in the summer of 1768. The author furthermore focuses on information about the musicians who were then in the princes services and also about commissioned musical instruments and musical scores and parts., Helena Kazárová., Obsahuje seznam literatury, and Anglické resumé na s. 45.
The article presents two likely and so far unknown compilers of the third edition of Koniáš’s Key from 1770. Their names have been revealed by a handwritten note in a copy that was originally a part of the library of the private collector Josef Bartsch (1731-1803). Concerning the first figure, the Jesuit Josef Kögler, the treatise describes his career in the Jesuit Order and the posts that he held. In the case of his co-worker Jan Kohout, the text outlines the possible connections that might help identify him precisely. and David Mach.
Studie Jany Spáčilové se zabývá mešními kompozicemi hudebního skladatele Antonia Caldary, dochovanými v moravských hudebních sbírkách., This article is dedicated to the problem of the erroneous attribution of authorship of Masses to Antonio Caldara in Moravian collections of church music. It contains information about extant records of Masses by Caldara and methodological discussion concerning the reliability of sources with respect to authorship. Also included is an overview of Caldara sources of Moravian provenience, including both extant music and entries in period inventories. Attention is dedicated both to compositions by others regarded in Moravia as works by Antonio Caldara, and to works by Caldara under the names of other composers. Works identified as having been written by other composers are presented in the form of tables, including signatures of all concordant sources found so far in European libraries. The purpose of the article is to give an idea of the standing of Caldara’s works in the repertoire of Moravian church music and to prepare material for a future thematic catalog of Moravian sources of Masses by Caldara., Jana Spáčilová., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 75, anglický abstrakt 45.
Studie Karla Veverky se zabývá mešními díly hudebního skladatele Antonia Caldary, jejichž opisy se dochovaly v hudebních sbírkách v Praze, se zaměřením na významnou sbérku hudebnin z kůru pražských křižovníků., This study deals with individual aspects and problems of research on the Masses by Antonio Caldara with source materials held in Prague. Representing the basic material are two copies from the collection of the Knights of the Cross with the Red Star along with concordant sources amassed from Czech and foreign archives. The effectiveness of the standard methods used for studying musical sources is put to the test on a selected sampling of material. The comparison of individual copies helps answer questions not only about provenience or filial relationships between materials, but also about period performance practice. The goal of the study is to make at least a partial contribution towards systematic research on the musical life of Prague in the first half of the 18th century, when Caldara’s Masses were significantly represented in church music collections., Karel Veverka., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 93, anglický abstrakt 81.
