The paper presents a picture of piano culture in Bratislava in the second half of the 18th century and especially after 1770. This period saw the hammer piano to make a remarkable advance and even win dominance in European musical culture. The research is based on the sources primarily of Bratislava provenance, which document piano culture among various social layers (aristocratic, bourgeois, church and school milieux) and resulting from the work of influential figures who contributed to its development (composers, teachers, organisers, patrons, musical dilettantes, instrument-builders). Given the broad scope of the question, a selected approach is taken in this study, focusing especially on the circumstances and conditions in which piano culture evolved in Bratislava: opportunities for the cultivation of piano playing, reports on keyboard instruments in the press, concerts and events, manufacture of instruments. A particular attention is devoted to Johann Nepomuk Erdődy and his role in piano culture. The findings and presentation of sources are confronted with the picture of Viennese piano culture, which, mediated by the activities of a variety of social layers, contributed in a specific manner to the profile of piano culture in Bratislava.

This paper addresses the issues of music education in Bratislava (Pressburg, Prešporok), with reference to piano playing, in the final quarter of the 18th century. The studied period is more narrowly limited to the years 1777 – 1796, when the Normal School in Bratislava had among its staff the musician, pianist, singer, composer, theoretician and teacher Franz Paul Rigler (1747 or 1748 – 1796), an individual of all-round capability, with a reputation going beyond his local sphere. Analysing the personal, cultural, institutional and creative contexts of his life, the paper seeks answers to questions regarding Rigler’s origin, education and personal connections, and clarifies the contribution he made to shape the profile of musical culture. Presented research results are derived from processing part of the extensive source material in the Departamentum scholarum nationalium fund deposited in the Hungarian State Archive (Magyar Országos Levéltár) in Budapest. The primary aim of this study is to clarify the issues of piano education in Bratislava in the given period, its cultural, social, institutional and creative background, and the circumstances of how the music class in the Normal School functioned.
