Beschreibung

Of all the prominent musicians born in Bohemia in the eighteenth century, none is surrounded with as much mystery and mystique as Josef Myslivecêk (1737-1781), who was known in Italy as "Il Boemo" (The Bohemian). Scion of a wealthy family of millers from Prague, he became one of the most talented composers active in late eighteenth-century Europe, even though he only started to acquire instruction in musical composition as an adult. A friend of both Wolfgang and Leopold Mozart, his dynamic personality ("full of fire, spirit, and life," according to Wolfgang) is vividly brought to life in the Mozart correspondence-and not only the praiseworthy aspects, but also the air of scandal that often followed him. This study offers an analysis of all the available documentation concerning Myslivecêk's biography and a thorough description of his compositional style. It is clear that his works were much more influential models for the young Mozart than has ever before been suspected.

Über den Autor

Musicologist Daniel E. Freeman is the world's leading authority on the musical culture of eighteenth-century Prague born outside of the Czech lands, an American who has lived and studied in Prague since before the Velvet Revolution. Besides his work with Bohemian music, he has published extensively on topics such as eighteenth-century keyboard music, eighteenth-century opera, and the music of Antonio Vivaldi, W. A. Mozart, J. S. Bach, the Bach sons, and Josquin des Prez.

Dr. Freeman gives lectures on music at the University of Minnesota and has appeared frequently as a speaker at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. He has also taught at the University of Illinois and the University of Southern California. Trained as a professional pianist, he has considerable experience as a soloist and dance and vocal accompanist.

Josef Myslive¿ek: Il Boemo is the second monograph in Dr. Freeman's eighteenth-century Prague trilogy. The other two titles in the series are The Opera Theater of Count Franz Anton von Sporck in Prague and Mozart in Prague. Dr. Freeman has prepared many scholarly essays on Myslive¿ek's music and has also published a number of editions of Myslive¿ek's music. He was a key consultant for the Myslive¿ek biopic Il Boemo (2022), directed by Petr Václav, which was nominated by the Czech Republic as its entry for the Oscar for Best International Feature Film.
