Sažetak
The blessed Augustin Kažotić (Agostino Gazotich, Casotti, Gazzotti), a Dominican monk from Trogir in central Dalmatia, is very probably the most important personality of the musical Middle Ages in northern Croatia. His musical activities covered three areas: as a reformer of church singing, as an organizer of an innovative rite and probably as a composer. Functioning as the Bishop of Zagreb from 1301 until 1322 (after 1318 named Bishop of Lucera in southern Italy) he probably reformed church singing in the Zagreb Cathedral through teaching and performing; the innovative rite he introduced consisted of a new arrangement and way of bringing sung numbers into liturgical ‘dramaturgy’, as well as introducing some innovations in the repertory; and he might have been the as yet unconfirmed author of several compositions printed much later in such collections of church compositions as Cithara octochorda (first edition: Vienna 1701; further editions: Vienna 1723 and Zagreb 1757), and/or Cantuale processionum (Zagreb, 1751).
