Sažetak
The present study is based on the partially preserved correspondence of the Bulgarian editor and music teacher Boris Gaidarov with the Croatian composers Jakov Gotovac, Boris Papandopulo and Josip Štolcer Slavenski, and is an attempt to reconstruct the idea of the longlived professional contacts between them. The focus of this creative exchange is the Junošeski drugar music collection, which was published by Gaidarov in the period between 1926 and 1948 and contained their choral compositions, as well as compositions of other contemporary Croatian composers. A large part of these works was incorporated into the repertoires of the Bulgarian choral societies between the 1920s and 1940s.
In the study, other B. Gaidarov initiatives for establishing closer contacts between the musicians from the two countries were also represented and they were found in his publications. Among them, the most dynamic and closest form of music communication to the general public was support for the exchange of choral society concerts. The efforts made in this direction, both by professional music unions and by particular musicians such as Jakov Gotovac, Boris Papandopulo, and the like, revealed the perspective of mutual introduction of Bulgarian and Croatian national composer works. The performance of Jakov Gotovac’s opera Ero s onoga svijeta in Sofia in 1940 marked the culmination of the tendency in that period.
Boris Gaidarov’s publishing activities are just a page in the wide spectrum of creative contacts between the Bulgarian and Croatian musicians. Though developed in a small town on the Danube, far from big cultural centres and state music institutions, they represent an example of how the personal initiative of a musician goes beyond the borders of national art and leaves its trace in the history of music cultural relations between Bulgaria and Croatia.
