THE BRASS-BAND OF SENJ

ANTE GLAVIČIĆ

Sažetak

In pursuance of the availabe papers and, for the most part, from various letters from Senj and, also, from various pieces of information from old Croatian newspapers between 1835 - 1945, was written an essay on the history of the brass-band from Senj, which was established as far as 1842. It seems that the brass-band from Senj has been one of the oldest musical institutions and societes in Croatia. During the 155 years of its continuance, this brass-band was taking part in all either national, church or city ceremonies, then in occasion of various holidays and in all either public entertainments or art performances. So, this band, by playing specially national pieces of music, encouraged fellow-citizens and neighbouring people (visitors) to endure in those hard times of the struggle for freedom and indipendance of Croatia, thus acquring the epithet of the band of "Senj and Croatia".
