Podrobný výpis o publikaci

The publication follows the first volume from 2017 published on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the founding of JAMU. The interest in it stimulated the creation of the second volume, which is much more extensive: this time 15 authors participated in it, one of them foreign. Of the artistic personalities, attention is paid to three composers (Ištvan, Kohoutek, Zouhar) and a number of performers, many of whom worked in more artistic fields and very often were also leading representatives of the school. The individual studies are dedicated to pianists Inessa Janíčková, Milan Máša, Vlastimil Lejsek, Jiří Skovajsa and Otakar Vondrovic, choirmasters Břetislav Bakala and Jan Šoupal, playwright and conductor Václav Nosek, musicologist Jan Trojan, singer Anna Barová and linquist Eva Horová. The activities of the Brno quartet ensembles are viewed through their members - violist Jiří Kratochvíl and Bedřich Havlík, a complex personality of Ludvík Kundera is devoted to a study by foreign contributor Horst Meyer.
