Gdańsk composers - Opis:
- The rich port city of Gdańsk, a signifi cant centre of science and culture in the 17th century, was in many respects important to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. It was often visited by the kings of Poland, in the 17th century indeed by all the monarchs with the exception of Michał Korybut Wiśniowecki. The citizens of Gdańsk, legally the subjects of the Polish rulers, highly valued good relations with the Crown. Each royal visit was celebrated with great pomp, as were other stately events, such as royal elections, coronations, military victories and funerals. King Jan II Kazimierz visited the city on the Motława (Mottlau) three times. In 1651 he was there for a dozen or so days, whereas his later visits lasted several months: during the ‘Swedish Deluge’ he stayed from November 1656 to February 1657, and during peace negotiations with the Swedes from December 1659 to May 1660. Surviving sources confi rm active participation of Gdańsk musicians in celebrations associated with the monarch. However, these are mainly literary texts without music, information from chronicles and archival sources. The surviving musical relics are limited to 15 compositions by Paul Siefert from the second volume of Psalmorum Davidicorum…, dedicated to the king in 1651, as well as works by Johann Balthasar Erben written for the offi cial abdication of Jan Kazimierz in 1668: the alto aria Denk- und Dank-Altar ... Johannes Casimirus König zu Polen ‘Halt auff! grosses Himmels Liecht!’ (to a text by Ludwik Knaust, a Gdańsk writer), followed by instrumental Passacaglia.
