Abstract
Jan Křtitel Vaňhal is represented in the surviving Bohemian music collections
nearly as strongly as Joseph and Michael Haydn – by his sacred music which spread
from big music centres, cathedrals, important churches and monasteries up to the small
towns and villages. In some of the monastic collections, also secular music by Vanhal
found its place, especially symphonies – in a number which match the number of
secular compositions, gathered for the use of the Bohemian noble families. These paper
deals in more detail especially with the collections formerly belonging to the Order of
Brothers Hospitallers (Barmherzige Brüder, Fatebene Fratelli, O. S. I.).
