ICMA AWARD 2019
Seventeenth-century Wrocław (then Breslau) was one of Europe’s important musical centres. Its three main Protestant churches – St. Elisabeth, St. Mary Magdalene and St. Bernardine – collected extensive music libraries.
Their repertoire was shaped both by prints imported from Italy and Germany, and by works composed by local cantors and organists employed in church ensembles.
A separate collection of nearly 400 prints from 1610–55 reposed in private hands for most of the century.
It had probably been initiated by Ambrosius Profe, the organist of the Church of St. Elizabeth in 1633–49, and later owned by Daniel Sartorius, a teacher in the church gymnasium.
After the latter’s death the music prints were incorporated into the Biblioteca Rhedigeriana, a collection of rare manuscripts, prints, paintings, sculptures, coins and minerals assembled by a Breslau patrician Thoms Rhediger (1540–76).
