Novotný, Václav Juda


(b Vesce, nr Telč, 17 Sept 1849; d Prague, 1 Aug 1922). Czech writer on music and composer. While studying history and philosophy in Prague he attended Ambros’s music history lectures and studied with Bennewitz (violin), František Blažek (harmony) and Pivoda (singing). At first he was a violinist at the Provisional Theatre and then turned to music journalism, contributing to Dalibor (which he also edited, 1875, 1879–80), Hudební revue and other journals and newspapers. He was a personal friend of Smetana, and went with him in 1875 to consult foreign specialists about the composer’s deafness. He also accompanied Dvořák on his second visit to England in 1884. His translations of almost 100 opera librettos into Czech were valuable in building up the National Theatre repertory; his revisions (Dvořák’s King and Charcoal Burner, Smetana’s Dalibor and The Two Widows) were less successful. His reputation as a composer rests chiefly on his songs and some 300 skilful folksong arrangements, though he also composed two operas, church music, choruses and vocal duets.

Nowak, Leopold


(b Vienna, 17 Aug 1904; d Vienna, 27 May 1991). Austrian musicologist. He studied the piano and organ at the Vienna Academy, and musicology with Adler and Lach at Vienna University (1923–7), where he took the doctorate in 1927 with a dissertation on the Gesellschaftslieder of Heinrich Finck, Paul Hofhaimer and Heinrich Isaac. In 1932 he completed the Habilitation with a work on the history of the basso ostinato, and subsequently taught at Vienna University until 1973. In 1946 he succeeded Robert Haas as director of the music collection of the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek. The building had been largely destroyed by bombing, but under his direction it was rebuilt and opened to the public in 1954. During his time in office (until 1969) he also organized and catalogued a series of exhibitions, including those on Bruckner (1946) and Bach (1950), and he did much for the preservation of Bruckner documents and records. He was also interested in Catholic church music and Austrian folk music and was a member of the Vienna diocesan commission for church music and the Vienna Catholic academy. He became a member of the Gesellschaft zur Herausgabe der Denkmäler der Tonkunst in Österreich in 1930 and of the Music Research Commission of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in 1946.

Nowak was a centrally important Bruckner scholar. His major achievement was the preparation of a critical edition of Bruckner's complete works. In 1946 he became the musicological director of the undertaking, and was personally responsible for new, revised editions of nearly all the symphonies and masses, which are widely accepted as authoritative. He also contributed extensively to the biographical and critical literature on Bruckner.

Nowak also worked on Haydn and Mozart. For the new Mozart edition he produced a critical edition of the Requiem, which makes an unprecedentedly clear distinction between Mozart's incomplete autograph text and the text as amended by Eybler and Süssmayr. He was awarded the Goldene Mozart Medaille in 1985.
