Following the Trail of Musical Manuscripts and Prints

Abstract

Problematika o uporabi, širjenju in dediščini historičnih glasbenih rokopisov in tiskov na širšem evropskem prostoru je prepoznavna tudi skozi delovanje in glasbeno poslanstvo dominikanskega in minoritskega samostana na Ptuju. Obe nekoč izjemno pomembni redovni skupnosti sta bili tesno vpeti v evropska duhovna gibanja. Ohranjena glasbeno-teoretična dela, liturgične knjige in posamezni foliji omogočajo podrobnejše poznavanje glasbene kulture obeh redovnih skupnosti in medkulturnih vplivov, ki so bili posledica pestre migracije redovnikov med samostani obeh redov.The paper focuses on issues concerned with the heritage of historical music manuscripts and prints, along with their use and dissemination in the wider European area, as well as the activities and musical mission of the Dominican and Minorite monasteries in Ptuj (Pettau, Petovio). Both monastic orders were once exceptionally important and maintained strong connections with European spiritual movements. They preserved works on music theory, liturgical books and some sheet music, which has enabled a more detailed insight into the musical culture of monastic communities and into the transcultural influences that resulted from the multi-directional migrations of friars among various European monasteries in the past
