  In the autumn of 2015 more than 10,000 migrants a day crossed the border of Slovenia (population: under two million). The questions and political turmoil that this caused served to inspire the topic of a conference held in Ljubljana 2017, now published as a conference report in the first of a new scholarly series, Studia musicologica labacensia (the last word derives from the old Latin word for Ljubljana). Slovenia itself is a country that has in…

• Adam Michna of Otradovice – Composer

  Anyone wanting an insight into the vicissitudes of pursuing certain areas of musicology during the Communist period in Czechoslovakia need look no further than the introduction to Jiří Sehnal’s book on the Czech Baroque composer Adam Václav Michna z Otradovic. As Sehnal relates (pp. 5–6), his edition of Michna’s Missa Sancti Wenceslai came out in the Musica Antiqua Bohemica (MAB) series in 1968, the liberal ‘Dubček year’. But plans for continuing…

  If Olomouc has figured in the Czech historiography of opera less than cities such as Prague or Brno this is not because of its cultural backwardness. It was the capital of Moravia for many years, is still the ecclesiastical capital, and is well known in music history as the seat of Beethoven’s patron, Archbishop Rudolf, the dedicatee of the Missa solemnis. But while the staging of Czech-language opera in Prague grew from humble beginnings eventua…

  No longer the dominant ethnicity in the first Czechoslovak Republic (1918–38), Germans, who made up 23 per cent of the population of the newly created state, clung on to a German identity particularly through their cultural institutions such as opera houses and music societies. After the expulsion at the end of the war of about three million Germans, earlier German cultural activity in the Czech lands became a taboo subject in the reconstituted C…

  Most of the essays in this collection go back to a symposium held in Bratislava in 2009 on central European music theatre in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. For ‘central Europe’ think ‘Habsburg’ and although the end dates of some of the essays go beyond the 1918 collapse of the Habsburg Empire, there is evidence (for instance in Pieter M. Judson’s The Habsburg Empire: A New History (Cambridge, Mass., 2016)) that much of the organizational…

  Pity the poor composer lumbered with a label. A label can provide early recognition but can easily turn into an albatross. And if the label refers to what was once an excitingly modern-sounding project, it can, decades later, sound distinctly old-fashioned. If Alois Hába is known outside his homeland, it is as one of the most prominent and industrious composers of quarter-tone and sixth-tone music. But quarter-tone and sixth-tone music, however u…

  The name of Jaroslav Vogel (1894–1970) is known outside the Czech lands as the author of the finest one-volume biography of Leoš Janáček, a book published over fifty years ago and still in print in Czech and English. But in his homeland Vogel is also famous as one of the leading Czech conductors of the twentieth century. His recording of Janáček’s Jenůfa , with a superb cast, was the first complete recording and remains a classic. Lenka Černíková…

  The author takes issue with Michael Ewans’s description of Janáček’s operas as »tragic«. Among the mature operas, Jenůfa, The Cunning Little Vixen, The Makropulos Affair and From the House of the Dead lack tragic inevitability and exhibit other genre characteristics, such as those of tragicomedy (in The Vixen and Makropulos)

Quantity and quality of the sources were sufficient to yield meaningful, accurate, and reliable data. The reconstruction was mappable and revealed significant vegetative gradients and diversity.

  Janufa, Kat'a Kabanova and The Cunning Little Vixen - these are the best-known of the operas by the Czech composer Leos Janacek. This book traces the process of composition of all Janacek's operas via the use of a translated anthology of letters and other writings largely written by the composer himself. His letters offer a valuable insight into the sources of his inspiration, the day-to-day progress of composition and the practicalities of perfo…
