CUMULATIVE INDEX to Czech Music and Other Society Journals: 1974-1994 Abstracted by Richard Beith Issue 2 July 1995 INTRODUCTION The Dvořák Society has always published a journal since the Society was founded in 1974. In the early years, the format and title changed frequently, but the name Czech Music has been used since 1978 and the familiar A5 format has been in use since 1980. Journal size has varied from the first issue, a single sheet of foolscap, printed on both sides, to the latest issue with 192 A5 size pages. Up until the Autumn 1987 issue, Czech Music also contained the “current information” listing concert dates, latest record news and forthcoming Society events. Since 1988 the entirely separate Newsletter has been published to cover such “current information”. Ephemeral items such as crosswords, concert announcements and new record issue news are omitted from the index, particularly such information appearing in the Journals prior to 1988, i.e. before the introduction of the separate Newsletter. The titles of articles, as printed, have occasionally been expanded by additional explanations in parenthesis. For example, “Music to Dismember” referring to cuts in live performances of Dvořák’s works now has the added comment: (Performance Cuts). Titles of musical works have generally been left in the language of the original articles, Czech, English or Slovak as appropriate. As the journals have not been given continuous pagination within one volume, i.e., as every separate issue starts with a page 1, a very full reference is given, egg: “March 74 1:1:1” = March 1974 issue, Volume 1, No 1, article starting on page 1; Summer 1993 18:1:87 = Summer 1993 issue, Volume 18, No 1, article starting on page 87. All articles and reviews are listed in date order of appearance under each heading or sub-heading. The Index is presented in three sections: (a) Articles by subject (b) Record reviews by composer (c) Authors of articles - 1 - PUBLISHING HISTORY Dates Title Editor(s) References March/April 1974 “Newsletter” Dv.Soc.G.B.
