VEGA 2/0006/21 (2021 - 2024) Transregional relations of sources of sacred and secular music from the territory of Slovakia in the 12th - 17th centuries - member of the research team (Institute of Musicology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences)

Annotation:

The project focuses on the processing of the oldest music books in Slovakia and of Slovak provenance abroad, which form an integral part of cultural, artistic and educational identity in Europe. The aim of the project is to determine the local elements and trans-regional relationships of specific materials of sacred and secular music from the 12th - 17th centuries from the territory of Slovakia and Slovak provenance abroad. The object of the basic research will be complete and fragmentary surviving musical manuscripts and prints, which will be evaluated on the basis of the migration of cultural, religious and artistic stimuli influencing particular religious centres, institutions, cities and individuals (kings, nobles, church dignitaries, townspeople). The transfer of impulses, inspirations and models reflected in the various components of musical culture (musical genres, repertoire, musical content, liturgy, notation, decoration of manuscripts, etc.) will be traced. The project will result in a comprehensive, analytical and comparative treatment of musical sources.

FPU 25-133-00684 (2025) Liquide perle - koncert historickej hudby (hudba z Banskej Štiavnice)

Annotation:

Musical culture has a rich tradition in Slovakia. During the 16th–18th centuries, music was cultivated in churches, aristocratic residences, and urban environments. The works of prominent European composers such as Claudio Monteverdi, Orlando di Lasso, Heinrich Schütz, Luca Marenzio, and Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber were represented in the territory of present-day Slovakia, alongside works by local composers such as Samuel Capricornus, Johann Kusser, Ján Šimrák, and Zachariáš Zarewutius. However, a significant part of this repertoire gradually disappeared from concert practice.

The project Liquide perle – A Concert of Early Music aims to revive the works of the prominent Italian madrigalist Luca Marenzio preserved in music-historical sources from the territory of present-day Slovakia through a series of nine concerts. The programme focuses on Marenzio’s secular madrigals documented in the 1633 inventory of Michal Apicius, a teacher from Banská Štiavnica. The vocal compositions will be performed with historically appropriate instrumental accompaniment consisting of viola da gamba, theorbo, and harpsichord. The programme will also include solo and chamber works by Marenzio’s contemporaries.

The significance of the project lies primarily in the artistic revival of the musical repertoire documented in the Apicius inventory and its presentation to contemporary audiences. At the same time, the project highlights the importance of historical musical sources preserved in Slovakia and their connections with European musical culture. By presenting repertoire that has not previously been revived in modern performance practice, the project contributes to a broader understanding and presentation of Slovakia’s musical cultural heritage.

FPU 25-133-00701 (2025) Florilegium Musicum Žilina - Early Music Festival 2025

Abstract:

Musical culture in Slovakia has a rich tradition, which has developed since the Middle Ages in churches, monasteries, aristocratic residences and bourgeois circles. In the 16th–18th centuries, the works of prominent European and domestic composers were performed in our region, though a large part of this historical repertoire has gradually disappeared from concert practice.

The Florilegium Musicum Žilina International Early Music Festival is a platform dedicated to reviving historical music associated with the Central European region, particularly Slovakia, Hungary and Poland. Its aim is to stage works from the Middle Ages to the Classical period, preserved in domestic and foreign music-historical sources, and to present them through historically informed performance.

The focus of the 2025 edition will be the premiere performance of works from the 16th–18th centuries preserved in sources from the territory of present-day Slovakia, including the Levoča and Bardejov music collections and the Bratislava music inventories. The repertoire is also based on the findings of musicological research by Slovak scholars and highlights the historical links between Slovakia’s musical culture and the wider European context.

The festival will take place 28–29 March 2025 in Žilina, featuring the ensembles Ensemble Thesaurus Musicum (Slovakia) and Ensemble del Passato (Poland). Its main contribution is the artistic revival and promotion of Central Europe’s musical and cultural heritage to contemporary audiences.

FPU 26-733-02429 Európsky lutnový orchester_Belluno (2026)

Abstract:

The European Lute Orchestra is a unique international ensemble bringing together performers on historical plucked instruments of the lute family – lutes, theorboes, colascions and historical mandolins. Since its inception in around 2014, it has brought together musicians from several European countries and performs regularly at international festivals. Its repertoire includes lute music from Italy, France, England, Germany and Central Europe, performed in accordance with the principles of historically informed performance.

My participation in the orchestra as the sole Slovak performer and theorbo player presents an opportunity to showcase Slovak performance art on an international stage. The project involves a three-day rehearsal process and a concert performance at the festival in Belluno, Italy.

As a performer on historical musical instruments and a musicologist, this project will provide me with new experience in the field of historically informed performance and the opportunity to establish professional contacts with European performers. The knowledge and experience gained will subsequently be put to use at home through concert, teaching and publishing activities, thereby enabling the project to contribute to the development and promotion of early music in Slovakia.

FPU 26-131-04632 Dice mi la mia stella - Hudba Lucu Marenzia v Slovenských hudobných archívoch (2026)

Abstract:

Musical culture in Slovakia has a rich tradition and, in the 16th–18th centuries, was closely linked to the European musical scene. Domestic musical sources have preserved works by important European and domestic composers, although a large part of this repertoire has gradually disappeared from performance practice.

The aim of the project is, based on original musicological research and a critical edition by M. Hottmar, to produce a recording of villanelles and madrigals by the prominent Italian composer Luco Marenzio (1554–1599) and his contemporaries. Marenzi’s works formed part of the musical culture of Levoča, Bardejov, Banská Štiavnica and Bratislava in the 16th and 17th centuries.

The repertoire is performed by Ensemble Thesaurus Musicum, comprising five singers and three instrumentalists, in accordance with the principles of historically informed performance. Of particular significance is the premiere performance and recording of compositions documented in the Inventory of Musical Works by Michal Apicius of Banská Štiavnica, which have not previously been made available for performance. The project thus links musicological research with artistic practice and makes a significant part of the musical cultural heritage accessible to the general public.
