Короткий опис(реферат):
František Wojciechowicz Kučera is one of the most conspicuous representatives of the Czech music community in Kharkiv in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He played an important role in the professionalization of music education and the formation of chamber-instrumental and orchestral culture of Eastern Ukraine. As a teacher at Kharkiv Music College and a multi-instrumentalist, he confidently presented the bassoon at the city’s concert venues. At the same time, his performances as a violist in the string quartet contributed to the intensification of musical and educational activities of the local branch of the then Russian Music Society. The most significant achievement of Franz Kučera in the development of Kharkiv’s musical culture was the founding of a summer symphony orchestra in 1898, which for twelve years performed free public concerts for the townspeople. Until recently, the name of F. Kučera remained obscure, and only the perusal of old prints and Kharkiv periodicals of the late 19th to early 20th centuries
made it possible to rediscover the lesser-known pages of this Czech artist’s creative career within Ukraine.
