Српски Звуци – Serbian Sounds, Rhapsodies for Piano by Jovan Paču (Presenting the Sheet Music Edition and CD)
Abstract
The life journey of the medical doctor and musician Jovan Paču (1847–1902) brought together the various branches of his prolific and richly creative personality, providing him with a prominent place in the history of Serbian 19th-century music. Although his primary vocation was medicine, he had also acquired education in music from early childhood, also working, during his active creative period, as a composer, pianist, music teacher, and writer. This first printed edition of Paču’s piano rhapsodies titled Српски звуци (“Serbian Sounds”) comprises eight of his 12 rhapsodies, which are kept in manuscript form at the Archive of the Institute of Musicology at the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Belgrade. The edition also comprises a CD with recordings of the same works rendered by our renowned pianists and piano teachers (Dušan Trbojević, Zorica Dimitrijević Stošić, Dubravka Jovičić, and Mirjana Šuica Babić).
