About This Book

It's a selection of musicological writings about musical life in Latvia since the 2th half of 18th century. Vita Lindenberga writes about reception of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's and Joseph Haydn's Works in those days and explains the problems of musical repertoire in `Rigaer Stadttheater` in 1860 - 1870. Jānis Torgāns looks back to the relationship of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach and Latvia, especially to Dietrich Ewald von Grothuss, but gives also a picture of Hans Hochapfel - Musikdirektor in Liepāja ( then - Libau; he was here 1894 - 1928) and some reflections about opera as a mirror of the society. Mikus Čeže presents a view to financial situation in the `Rigaer Stadttheater` 1863 - 1882 and portrays Bruno Walter and Fritz Busch in their Riga's times. A wast register of the repertoire in `Rigaer Stadttheater` 1863 - 1882 and many commentars offers Lolita Fūrmane.
