The Croatian Music Institute in the 1920s: Morning Concerts and Musical Evenings

Abstract

Jutarnji koncerti (Morning Concerts) and Intimne muzičke večeri (Intimate Musical Evenings) were concert series of the Hrvatski glazbeni zavod (Croatian Music Institute) in Zagreb, organized by the institute's secretary, art historian, and music amateur Artur Schneider in the 1920s. From 1921 to 1928 there were 148 concerts, with works by 143 contemporary composers, from the most famous ones, like Béla Bartók and Arnold Schoenberg, to the youngest generation of Croatian composers, like Boris Papandopulo. The most common performers were Croatian soprano Maja Strozzi-Pečić and pianist Bela Pečić, who especially promoted music through their friend Igor Stravinsky. These concert series were outstanding also with regard to the high quality of performers and programs as well as the carefully prepared program booklets.
