On the other hand, I would naturally be glad if there were even more of these global teams. One of the aims of the evaluation was to refl ect quality in the fi nancing of the institutes. Was that successful? I believe so, namely thanks to the fact that the evaluation this time took place all the way on the level of individual scientifi c teams and the results of the assessment were re- fl ected in the budgets of the institutes. It means that the in- stitutes with a higher number of excellent teams received more, naturally at the expense of those worse. Science needs fi nancial means. What does the stagnating institutional fi nancing mean for the Academy of Scienc- es? For a limited time, it is possible to face the unfavourable fi nancial situation with cuts, improvisations and postpone- ment of desirable investments. Further deepening of the investment debt particularly in instrument equipment of the institutes from the past years has already led to inhi- President of the ASCR Jiří Drahoš bition and limitation of a number of important research activities of the Academy of Sciences and to the serious endangerment of its competitiveness.

There- more. fore, one of the most important and demanding tasks of the ASCR in 2011 was the completion of the evaluation of the research activities of its institutes for 2005–2009 and the application of its results in determining the institution- al support of the institutes for 2012 and further years. In the total of 395 scientifi c units, fi fty-two research-orien- tated institutes of the ASCR were evaluated, of which 116 (29 %) at workplaces of the 1st Scientifi c Area, 201 (51 %) at workplaces of the 2nd Scientifi c Area and 78 (20 %) at workplaces of the 3rd Scientifi c Area. The assessment took place also at two infrastructure-focused workplaces. From a comparison of the quality of the scientifi c outputs with the previous round of evaluation of the institutes of the ASCR, it is clear that at the workplaces of the ASCR in the period of 2005–2009 there was a substantial increase of the measurable quality and amount of scientifi c and profes- sional outputs of the institutes. This conclusion arose from a bibliometric comparison, the conclusions of the evalua- tion commissions and the comments of the foreign evalu- ators. Despite the complexity and logistical diffi culty of the evaluation of the institutes of the ASCR implemented, it is possible to state that it provided for the leadership of the ASCR and the leadership of the institutes important back- ground materials for the further increasing of the quality of their work. On the other hand, the results of the evalu- ation showed the fact that the long-term underestimation of the amount of state institutional support of science and research is limiting for a comparison with the results of the workplaces of the peak global level. Based on the results of the complex assessment of the research and professional activities of the workplaces of 08 INTRODUCTION the ASCR, the Academic Council of the ASCR commenced work on the Strategy of the Development of the ASCR for the Period 2014–2020. The basic system of fi fty-three scientifi c institutes of the ASCR did not undergo any fundamental changes as a con- sequence of the conclusions of the evaluation of their re- search activities for 2005–2009 or for other reasons. As of 1 March 2011, there was only a change of the name of the Institute of Systems Biology and Ecology of the ASCR to the Global Change Research Centre of the ASCR, which more precisely expresses the basic research focus of the workplace.

    The “Slavic Spirit” and the Opera Scene in Olomouc, 1830–19201 Jiří KOPECKÝ Department of Musicology, Faculty of Arts of Palacký University Olomouc Univerzitní 3, 771 80 Olomouc, Czech Republic E-mail: [email protected] Lenka KřUPKOVÁ Department of Musicology, Faculty of Arts of Palacký University Olomouc Univerzitní 3, 771 80 Olomouc, Czech Republic E-mail: [email protected] (Received: June 2017; accepted: September 2017) Abstract: In 1830, a new theater building was opened in the Olomouc Upper square. The stable theatrical life enriched enormously the cultural life of the city and en- couraged the development of publishing activities in the field of music journalism and publishing. The public debates on the artistic value of theater performances, on abilities of particular artists and on other subjects gained new quality after the 1860 October diploma because Czechs living in and around the traditional German town put pressure on theater directors and demanded Czech plays on the stage. The fights for the national repertoire on the stage of the Olomouc Provincial Theater are demon- strated in this essay in two contrary ways: at first, the introduction of Czech dramas into the German scene during the 1860s is discussed, then the intensive promotion of German operas during the 1880s and 1890s when internationally played Slavonic operas were performed in all theaters. The director Carl König (1862–1868) offered a contract to many artists who were able to speak both German and Czech, so he could open an independent subscription for the Czech public. The relatively tolerant atmos- phere allowed König’s company to give performances in both languages and connect the Olomouc theatrical life to the Prague Provisional Theater.

    Musicalia 1–2 / 2019, 150–163 DOI 10.1515/muscz-2019-0005 The earliest recordings of the works of Antonín Dvořák on standard gramophone records in the collection of the Antonín Dvořák Museum Petr Kudláček Abstract: The article deals with a selection of standard gramophone records from the holdings of the National Museum – Antonín Dvořák Museum. The criteria for the selection were the age of the recordings, the material used for making the discs (shellac), and the recording method (mechanical). Analysis of the identification marks on the labels served for determination of the time (the recordings in question were made between 1903 and 1916) and place of their origin. Further research on historical perspectives and repertoire is adding to our knowledge about the lives of Czech opera singers (e.g. Bohumil Pták, Málka Bobková, Otakar Mařák, Emil Pollert et al.) and the issuing of recordings of classical music in this country, as well as about the tastes of the period and the popularity of specific compositions by Dvořák. Key words: Antonín Dvořák, standard gramophone records, shellac discs, gramophone industry, Antonín Dvořák Museum, Rusalka, Gypsy Songs This study gives a brief overview of a selected part of the music collection of the Antonín Dvořák Museum (MAD) with a focus on standard (shellac) gramophone records with recordings of the works of Antonín Dvořák. The second, main part of the study singles out the rarest of these recordings, which are owned by the MAD and are also among the very oldest recordings of the composer’s works, and it analyses them from an historical perspective and with regard to their repertoire.

    VOCAL 78 rpm Discs Minimum bid as indicated per item. Listings “Just about 1-2” should be considered as mint and “Cons. 2” with just slight marks. For collectors searching top copies, you’ve come to the right place! The further we get from the era of production (in many cases now 100 years or more), the more difficult it is to find such excellent extant pressings. Some are actually from mint dealer stocks acquired years ago and others the result of having improved copies in my own collection via dozens of collections purchased over the past fifty years. * * * For those looking for the best sound via modern reproduction, those items marked “late” are usually of high quality shellac, pressed in the 1950-55 period. A number of items in this catalogue are excellent pressings from that era. Also featured are many “Z” shellac Victors, their best quality surface material (produced in the later 1930s) and PW (Pre-War) Victor, almost as good surface material as “Z”. Likewise laminated PW Columbia pressings (1923- 1940) offer similarly fine sound. * * * Please keep in mind that the minimum bids are in U.S. Dollars, a benefit to many collectors. These figures do not indicate the “value” of the records but rather the lowest minimum bid I can accept. Some will sell for much more, although bids at any figure from the minimum on up are welcomed and appreciated. To avoid possible tie winning bids (which would otherwise be assigned to the earlier received bid), I’d suggest adding a cents amount to your bid.

    VOCAL 78 rpm DISCS EDWARD LLOYD [t]. London, 1845-Worthing, 1927. Lloyd was the major British concert and oratorio tenor of the last quarter of the 19th century. He began as a chorister at Westminster Abbey and was subsequently engaged for St. Andrews and then the Chapel Royal. His solo career began in 1871, singing the tenor solo in Bach’s St. Matthew Passion at the Gloucester Festival. He received much acclaim through his singing of this work, as well as in oratorios of Händel, Mendelssohn, and other com- posers, notably Elgar. He was a particular favorite of Elgar and created the tenor solos in that composer’s Caractacus (1898) and The Dream of Gerontius (the year of his farewell, 1900). While he was no longer EDWARD LLOYD, pianist Mme. Adami and unidentified cellist heard regularly on the stage, Lloyd made a recording, circa 1907 number of records for the Gramophone Company in London, 1902 to 1911. Lloyd’s American debut was at the Cincinnati May Festival in 1888. His colleague, baritone Charles Santley, described him physically as “a nice, plump little gentleman”. The New York Times gave a more thorough description on his arrival in 1888. He “looks and acts about as much like a good-natured New York business man as anybody else. He is of medium height, stocky in build, and rather florid of face. He has pleasant dark eyes and dark hair that is just tinged with gray and is brushed down very smooth. A neat mustache is the only hair he wears on his face.

Peschel, October 2009 i Acknowledgements I would like to express my thanks to many people and organizations who helped make this dissertation a reality. My greatest debt of thanks is due to the survivors of the Terezín ghetto. Although in the dissertation itself I have analyzed only a fraction of the testimony I have collected, I am grateful to all of those who have testified to their experience and look forward to engaging with their narratives in more depth as this project continues to unfold. I am especially grateful to those survivors and their contemporaries who have granted me personal interviews in recent years, for they have shaped my interpretation in fundamental ways: Shulamit Amir, Edna and Arie Amit, Hilda Arnsteinová, Ziv Bacharach, Věra Bednářová, Michal (Maudka) Beer, Kitty Berger, Jiří Schmuel Bloch, Ruth Bobek, Miloslava Dohnalová, Michal Efrat, Zdenka Ehrlich-Fantlová, Walter Fantl-Brumlík, Marianna Foltýnová, Rudi Gelbard, Helena Glancová, Martin Glas, Eva Gross, Doris Grozdanovičová, Anna Hanusová-Flachová, Eva Herrmannová, Jarmila Horálková, Margarethe Horowitz-Trentini, Helga Hošková, Anna Hyndráková, Zuzana Justman, Helga Kinsky, Greta Klingsberg, Dita Kraus, Grete Lendvay, Dagmar Lieblová, Anna Lorencová, Eva Lukash, Leo Luster, Max Mannheimer, Evelyna Merová, Miriam Merzbacher-Blumenthal, Bernhard Morgenstern, Bohumil Porges, Irena Ravelová, Eva and Jan Roček, Eva Roubíčková, Zuzana Růžičková, Marietta Ryba, Alisah Schiller, Margit Silberfeld, Alice Sommer-Herz, Ruth Stein, Věra Steinerová, Edith Stern, Alena Sternová, Pavel Stránský, Věra Vrbová, Suzie and Freddie Weiss, Ela Weissberger, and Raja Žádníkova.
