Leos JANACEK
Leo Janá?ek (Hukvaldy, 3 July 1854 - Ostrava, August 12, 1928) was a Czech composer. (His name is pronounced Léoch Yanaatchèque. )This is one of the five largest Czech composers with Jan Václav Hugo Vori ek, Antonin Dvorak, Smetana and Bohuslav Martin?. On July 3, 1854 in Hukvaldy, Janá?ek Amalie gave birth to Leo, ninth child of a family who gave birth thirteen. Ji?í his father, the village schoolteacher, sent him to 11 years studying in a monastery in Brno, where he studied music under the direction of Pavel KRI kovský. It is noticed through his performances in the heart of the monastery ch. His studies led him to two years while in school Skuherský organ in Prague, then at the conservatories of Leipzig where he received such teaching Carl Reinecke and Vienna. In 1874 he met Antonin Dvorak in Prague. This is the beginning of a long friendship. Antonín Dvo?ák friendly criticized as his first compositions and permanently influenced by Leo Janá?ek his way of composing by marrying the intonations of spoken language. In 1881, the year of his marriage with Zdenka Schulzová, he returned to Brno to devote himself to music education. He founded an organ school which he directed until 1920, this school will also become the latest Brno Conservatory. He had two children: one died in infancy in 1890, the second, Olga, at the age of 21 years. The death of the latter is contemporaneous with the completion of his opera Jenufa and inspires his best works, marking a stylistic break, which can store alongside the composer of the discoverers of the twentieth-century music such Kodaly, Bartok, Szymanowski or Enesco, brothers of the East, and even Stravinsky, far from the romantic and post romantic as his friend Dvo?ák. His reputation is so far confined to the province but the creation in 1916 of a revised version of his opera Jenufa opens the doors of the capital and some recognition. He then falls in love with a married woman, Kamila Stösslová, making it difficult married life. Like many musicians of Central Europe, he will collect a number of folk music of his province (Moravia) for inspiration. It also is influenced by Slavic sources, including the themes of some of his operas (including Katya Kabanova) or for his Glagolitic Mass.. Google machine translation: Leos JANACEK's original bio |
