Adam Michna, a Czech composer at the crossroad of styles

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Adam Michna (1600?-1676) is the most important Czech composer of the 17th century. He studied with Jesuits and spent his life as an organist in Jindřichův Hradec, a town in Southern Bohemia. He composed Czech spiritual songs to his own lyrics in a homophonic style, intended for the church choirs in the countryside. His Latin works for soloist and choir with an instrumental accompaniment appeared mostly in print. They prove that, in the 1620s, Michna had became acquainted with the stylistic traits of Italian musica moderna. His work is analyzed and presented from a stylistic viewpoint. Although Michna was a contemporary of Alberik Mazák, Antonio Bertali, Giacomo Carissimi, Giovanni Battista Alouisi, and many others, his music cannot be compared with the works of any of these masters. Therefore, it is impossible to state which composers were his models. His position as a creative musician at the crossroads of styles lies, on the one hand, in his homophonic, partly modal way of thinking, and in a very modest use of counterpoint. On the other hand, one finds in his works an agitated recitative of solo voices and a frequent use of rhetorical figures, as well as, for the times, unusual harmonies consistent with the music of the beginning of the 17th century.
