Cantata for the count J. V. Haugwitz´s birthday (1770-1842) written by Gottfried Rieger and the music at the castle in Náměšť nad Oslavou in his days.
KAUPOVÁ, Lucie
This bachelor thesis deals with a transcript of a manuscript of a cantata from a composer Gottfried Rieger dedicated for birthday to the count of Náměšť Henry Wilhelm Haugwitz. i was provided by this manuscript by the Moravian Museum in Brno. The cantata, which is the topic of the thesis, was last performed at the beginning of the 19th century by a castle band. When rewriting this hand-written score i used the program Finale, which enabled me not only become more familiar with this piece of music that could be played in the castle again, but also with the times, where it was first presented. The manuscript, which i rewrote, clearly proves that musical life in the castle of Náměšť was very rich in those times and also that the count of Haugwitz had a lot of gifted musicians among his servants and music was his greatest interest.
