The Academies of St John presented by the Society of Bohemian Journalists in the form of a series of orchestral concerts held in Prague took place as a part of celebrations in honour of St John of Nepomuk held each May from 1878 until 1885. The Society of Bohemian Journalists held the events for the purpose of raising money, and on an ideological level, the events were intended to create room for the presentation of orchestral works by Bohemian composers. The organizer of the Academy was the writer, poet, and journalist Jan Neruda, whose feuilletons and reviews in the newspaper Národní listy reflect on the academies that they produced, but on a broader level, they also reveal his attitude towards the saint and the traditional veneration of John of Nepomuk. As a source, this period correspondence of the direct or indirect participants in the Academies of St John or in another project with similar aims (the Slavonic Concerts of the Academic Readers Association) has not previously been exhaustively studied, and it offers insight into Prague’s concert life at the time., Petra Kolátorová., Rubrika: Studie, Obsahuje seznam literatury, and Anglické resumé na s. 296-298.
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.
Studie Evy Myslivcové se zabývá korespondencí mezi hudebním skladatelem Antonínem Dvořákem a jeho blízkým přítelem Aloisem Göblem., This article introduces newly found photocopies of two letters from Antonín Dvořák to Alois Göbl with heretofore unknown and unpublished contents (newly discovered facts about Dvořák’s life and about period reception of his masterpieces – e.g. the Symphony No. 9 in E Minor “From the New World”, op. 95, and the Cello Concerto in B Minor, op. 104) and places them within the context of Dvořák’s correspondence addressed to his friend Göbl in Sychrov that has already been published in several different editions., Eva Myslivcová., Rubrika: Studie, and Německé resumé na s. 299, anglický abstrakt na s. 289.
Studie Heleny Matějčkové se zabývá obchodními kontakty mezi hudebním skladatelem Antonínem Dvořákem a londýnským nakladatelem Augener & Co., In the course of research focusing on the history of publication of the works of A. Dvořák, printed editions have been discovered for five works that were issued in 1885 and 1886 by the London publishing house Augener & Co. The literature and sources concerning the life and work of A. Dvořák, however, make no mention of this publisher or of its editions of Dvořák’s music. The study maps the history and activity of the publishing house, devoting the greatest attention to describing the new sources and to consideration of the possible circumstances of their publication – Augener’s editions of Dvořák’s compositions appear to have been prepared on the basis of already issued printings by the Prague publisher F. A. Urbánek – and of aspects of publishing practice at the time, especially with regard to copyright issues., Helena Matějčková., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 265, anglický abstrakt 247.
The two hundred and twenty-fifth anniversary of the Don Giovanni premiere, in 1787, and the one hundred and seventy-fifth anniversary of the foundation, in 1837, of Pragues Mozart Denkmal, the first ever Mozart Memorial Collection, housed from then until now in Pragues Klementinum, offer the opportunity to take a look at Mozarts standing in the early 19th century in Bohemia through the eyes of press and writing on music of the time (August Wilhelm Ambros, Wenzel Johann Tomaschek, Joseph Proksch, Ed. Murelli), as well as period arrangements of his works and the ways of their interpretation., Michaela Freemanová., Obsahuje seznam literatury, and České resumé na s. 102.
Studie Jana Kachlíka se zabývá dobovou recepcí kantáty Stabat Mater hudebního skladatele Antonína Dvořáka a také skladatelovou citací motivu z tohoto díla v komické opeře Šelma sedlák., Jan Kachlík., Rubrika: Studie, and Německé resumé na s. 341, anglický abstrakt na s. 331.
Studie Jany Perutkové se zabývá provedením opery "Giulio Cesare in Egitto" od hudebního skladatele Georga Friedricha Händela v divadle U Korutanské brány v císařském hlavním městě Vídni a též širší recepci Händelovy hudby v habsburském soustátí v uvedeném časovém období., The goal of the study is to present certain Händel sources that are unknown or have not yet been researched and to investigate the connection of those sources with the capital city of the Habsburg Monarchy, Vienna. At the center of attention is a performance of a pasticcio of Giulio Cesare in Egitto at the Theater am Kärntnertor in Vienna (Kärntnertortheater) in 1731. The study introduces the printed libretto, which has heretofore been regarded as lost, as well as the score of the work that L. Bennett first brought to light. The rediscovery of the libretto has made possible the comparison of these two sources. Also brought to attention is a copy of a collection of arias from this pasticcio that is held in Bratislava. There is furthermore presentation of certain possibilities regarding the identity of the probable compiler of the pasticcio, the composer Francesco Rinaldi, whose three extant operas premiered in Vienna date from the years 1730–1732. Reference is made in the study to the increased interest in Händel’s works in Vienna around the year 1730, and in connection therewith, reference is also made to a Viennese copy of his opera Admeto, which is kept in Meiningen. The study also asserts that at least one of the scores of Händel’s Agrippina held in the Musiksammlung der Österreichischen Nationalbibliothek had been the property of Count Johann Adam von Questenberg., Jana Perutková., Rubrika: Studie, and České resumé na s. 121, anglický abstarkt na s. 95.
This study is dedicated to a collection of compositions titled Hudební album (A Musical Album), volumes of which were issued in print from 1891 until 1896 by the Prague publisher Fr. A. Urbanek. The collection focused primarily on piano compositions by contemporary Bohemian composers. The first part of the study is devoted principally to the contents of the collection and to the circumstances of its publishing, then the second part examines the printing of compositions by A. Dvořák (All through the night a bird will sing from the song cycle Evening Songs, op. 31, Furiant, op. 12/2, and Dumka, op. 12/1) in Hudební album in versions that differ from the first editions published by Fr. A. Urbanek. This fact has not yet been researched by Dvořák scholars., Helena Matějčková., and Anglické resumé na s. 333.
