    Czech Music in Nebraska Ceska Hudba v Nebrasce OUR COVER PICTURE The Pavlik Band of Verdigre, Nebraska, was organized in 1878 by the five Pavlik brothers: Matej, John, Albert, Charles and Vaclav. Mr. Vaclav Tomek also played in the band. (Photo courtesy of Edward S. Pavlik, Verdigre, Neraska). Editor Vladimir Kucera Co-editor DeLores Kucera Copyright 1980 by Vladimir Kucera DeLores Kucera Published 1980 Bohemians (Czechs) as a whole are extremely fond of dramatic performances. One of their sayings is “The stage is the school of life.” A very large percentage are good musicians, so that wherever even a small group lives, they are sure to have a very good band. Ruzena Rosicka They love their native music, with its pronounced and unusual rhythm especially when played by their somewhat martial bands. A Guide to the Cornhusker State Czechs—A Nation of Musicians An importantCzechoslovakian folklore is music. Song and music at all times used to accompany man from the cradle to the grave and were a necessary accompaniment of all important family events. The most popular of the musical instruments were bagpipes, usually with violin, clarinet and cembalo accompaniment. Typical for pastoral soloist music were different types of fifes and horns, the latter often monstrous contraptions, several feet long. Traditional folk music has been at present superseded by modern forms, but old rural musical instruments and popular tunes have been revived in amateur groups of folklore music or during folklore festivals. ZLATE CESKE VZPOMINKY GOLDEN CZECH MEMORIES There is an old proverb which says that every Czech is born, not with a silver spoon in his mouth, but with a violin under his pillow.

  • An Excursion to Changing Romantic Aesthetics
    An Excursion to Changing Romantic Aesthetics Presentation paper at the 42nd International Viola Congress 2014, Porto, Portugal Markus Sarantola Principal Viola of the Lappeenranta Orchestra, Finland Vice President of the Finnish Viola Society I think the only possible way to start a lecture at a viola congress is to quote William Primrose. Or what do you think? This seems to be the way everybody does these things. 50 per cent of lectures like this have something to do with Primrose... I found an interesting article from the Strad magazine January 1998. Yizhak Schotten - one of America’s finest viola players - was a young student when he met William Primrose for the first time. During the previous years Schotten had been so influenced by Primrose’s playing that he had listened to all his records. Schotten relates: “I brought the Hindemith Sonata op.11 no.4 to a lesson and played it with all my heart - and all my slides. Mr Primrose asked: ”What are you doing that for?” I said: ”I’ve been listening to your recording.” And he replied: ”People don’t play like this any more.” Primrose knew well what was old-fashioned. And for some reason he did not like this style any more. The question is: What is meant here by old-fashioned? I think it is an interesting question. In 1980, it was not very popular to ask such questions, but nowadays we have to be much more aware of the historical ways of interpreting music. Attitudes have changed considerably. Modern musicians have started to play in ways that are historically informed.
