EN
The study is dedicated to count Géz Zichy, leading figure of Hungarian cultural life, the first professional left-handed pianist in history, composer, conductor, and also poet and writer, long-time director of the Budapest Conservatory and stage manager of the Royal Opera in Budapest. As a pianist, he achieved worldwide acclaim, as a composer he contributed to the development of Hungarian opera and to the shaping of the peculiar Hungarian idiom in national music, although towards the end of his life, this development line was understood as anachronistic due to its romantic style points of departure. Although his work as a performer significantly surpassed the Hungarian context, he remained connected to Pressburg all his life - a city in which he spent part of his youth and studies and later worked in various areas of cultural and social life. The presented study is conceived as a starting point to further research (study of his correspondence, literary estates, etc.), which will contribute to deepening the knowledge about the cultural life of Pressburg in the period under review.

This paper elucidates the music education of women on the territory of Slovakia in the late of the 18th and early the 19th centuries, in the context of the development of piano art. The musical activity of women is traced, and the measure of their interest in piano art is estimated, using period testimonies and reflections on women’s artistic activities in writings of the time. A number of aspects of the professional activity of women are outlined, with a primary focus on teaching piano playing. The paper presents manuscripts of music textbooks from the first decades of the 19th century, whose authorship, ownership, or possible elaboration we ascribe to women.
