Rajka Dobronić-Mazzoni
Abstract
The paper deals with the early years of the outstanding modern Croatian composer Antun Dobronić (1878- 1955), born in Jelsa on the island of Hvar, from his childhood to the year 1900, when he moved to Vis. Although a precocious musical talent, at first he had to become a simple teacher in the villages near Jelsa, but nevertheless managed to organize a lively musical life in his native town. Data on his activity in that time are based on his correspondence, as well as on contemporary newspaper articles.
