| Description | This monograph provides the first comprehensive study of the activities of Ukrainian musicians in the Czech Lands during the interwar period, shedding light on previously little-known chapters of Czech-Ukrainian cultural relations. Based on more than twenty years of archival research, it traces the experiences of the Ukrainian émigré community, the work of educational and cultural institutions, the contributions of prominent composers, educators, and musicologists, as well as the concert life of the Ukrainian minority. Particular attention is devoted to the 1919 tour of the Ukrainian Republic Capella, music education at the Mykhailo Drahomanov Ukrainian Higher Pedagogical Institute in Prague, Ukrainian composers studying at the Prague Conservatory, and the role of music as a means of cultural diplomacy and national self-awareness. |
