description

This article describes Antiphonarium ecclesiae Parochialis Oppoliensis – Carl Julius Adolph Hoffmann’s antiphonary prepared for the needs of parish musical and liturgical life. The collection is presented against the background of all the activities of this famous Opole music director. From the very beginning of his work in Opole he was committed to raising the local music culture – first in the parish, in the field of religious music, and then also in the whole city, enlivening its concert life. As a result he also improved the level of education and musical awareness of the city’s inhabitants.
