| Description | The study traces public concerts and musical-dramatic activities carried out by the Ukrainian minority settled in Bohemia and Moravia from 1919, when the first such performances appeared. The phenomenon is explored up to the establishment of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia in 1939. Information on these events is found mainly in Ukrainian and Czech archival institutions as well as in the periodicals of the time. It has been managed to find more than two hundred such performances, most of which consisted of concerts given by choirs. The study analyses following matters, such as: frequency of these events, the venue in which were those realized, the organizing institutions as well as the repertoire, which consisted of Ukrainian, often Czech and world compositions. The study also discusses the performers, among whom we also find Czech artists. Ukrainian musical performances in the interwar Czech lands were far from being performed only within the closed Ukrainian community, but were intended for a domestic audience as well. |
