Abstract

The research of the Hans Bruckmüller's (1862–1940) estate in the Department of the History of Music of the Moravian Museum has enabled this study to elaborate and describe in more detail the life and work of this composer (pupil of Franz von Suppé and Anton Bruckner), zither player, pianist, choirmaster and organizer of German musical life in Jihlava, Litovel and Brno. Bruckmüller is also widely remembered as one of the Jihlava contemporaries of the young Gustav Mahler. In Bruckmüller's estate, a typescript of recollections of Gustav Mahler was newly discovered, which Bruckmüller read on the Brno Radio on 3 January 1931. It also reflects on Bruckmüller's and Mahler's joint music-making and Mahler's relationship towards women at that time.
