His friends and associates included artists, writers, ethnographers and politicians, as well as conductors, singers and instrumentalists. Janacek's many pupils included the conductor Bretislav Bakala and the composer Pavel Haas. He had important associations with publishers in Vienna and Prague and with the earliest years of Czech Radio. Janacek was strongly attached to particular places - Hukvaldy, Brno, Luhacovice - and had professional links with Prague, Berlin, London and beyond. The Janacek Compendium includes nearly 300 entries on every aspect of Janacek's life and works, with detailed notes on all his significant compositions - above all the operas - providing the latest information to emerge about some of his most famous pieces. An extensive bibliography supports the entries, which are cross-referenced to enable wider exploration of particular topics. 600 10 $a JanaÌcÌek, LeosÌ, $d 1854-1928 $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Orchestral music $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 776 08 $i Electronic version: $a Simeone, Nigel, 1956- $t JanaÌcÌek compendium. $d Woodbridge, Suffolk ; Rochester, NY : Boydell Press, 2019 $z 9781787445086 $w (OCoLC)1088892391 830 0 $a Boydell composer compendium series. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2014141920 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210021551.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3A8E78520CF611EA99B9112E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
