Sažetak

The paper on the “Founding and Activity of the Blato Music Society”, published for the first time in this journal, is based on preserved archives (minutes of the meetings of the Board of Directors, annual assemblies and articles in the newspaper “Novo Doba”, “Narodna svijesti”, “Jadranska straža“ and the journal “Sveta Cecilija”).
The society was founded after the end of the First Italian Occupation in 1921, in the newly formed Yugoslav state. In its public activities, the Society followed the state ideology of integral Yugoslavia. This was reflected in its public performances (celebrating and marking historical dates and anniversaries inaugurated and prescribed by the ruling state government, Vidovdan Constitution, birthdays, name days and deaths of members of the royal house, Unification Day…) and its musical repertoire (dominated by Serbian composers). The repertoire of the “Amateur Theater Club” featured works by Serbian writers, especially Branislav Nušić. The Society cooperated with the “Belgrade Singing Society”, participated in the celebration of its 75th anniversary, participated in the “Mokranjčević Days”, made a financial contribution to the construction of the “Mokranjčević Home” in Belgrade, and joined the “Yugoslav Singing Association”. For its work, King Alexander awarded the “Order of Saint Sava“ to the Society.
While the most important leading positions in the Board of Directors were held mostly by people loyal to the current state regime, there were also members in the Singing and Tamburitza Choir who were Stjepan Radić’s sympathizers, and who also expressed their political affiliation in public.
