The subject of this paper is the work of Franz Jaksch (1851–1931), a versatile musician who served as the bandmaster of the Imperial and Royal Navy Orchestra in Pula, the main port of the ...Austro-Hungarian monarchy in the period between 1899 and 1917. It was in Pula that he composed most of his pieces tailored for military orchestras, opera stages and bourgeois salons. During his bandmaster term, the Navy Orchestra performed some of the most significant orchestral pieces from the symphonic repertoire.
After the signing of the Paris Peace Treaty in September 1947, Pula, a town in the south of the Istrian peninsula in Croatia, became a part of the People's Republic of Croatia and Yugoslavia. The ...period after the takeover of the city by the Communist authorities until the mid-1950s was marked by intense emigration, mostly of the Italian population, and also by re-industrialization and urbanization. At the same time, the process of forming art and culture according to the new ideological demands began. The instrumentalization of cultural life by ideology in the period between 1947 and 1955 left a significant trace on Pula's musical life. One of the main tasks of the authorities in the field of music culture was to promote musical education and popularize musical art, which was to be made available to a wider audience, especially labourers. The choice of music genres was narrowed significantly in order to ensure a close connection between the artist, his work, and the people. In the formative period of socialism in Pula, a music school opened, numerous cultural and artistic societies were established, operas were regularly performed at the theater and the Arena, and the city even had an operetta ensemble.Keywords: music, Pula, ideology, socialist realism, Communism

(It. Pola)A town in the southwestern part of the Istrian penninsula in Croatia. The earliest information about the music history of the town is provided by musical codices drawn up (i.e., ordered or ...paid for) by the Diocese of Pula. The oldest is a missal from the 11th century, Liber sequentiarum et sacramentarium, housed today in Šibenik.During the Austro-Hungarian empire (1867–1918) the Marine Orchestra of the Austro-Hungarian navy was active; with the opening of the Marine Casino in 1872 it became a permanent military orchestra. From 1899 until World War I the Società musicale polese (the Music Association of Pula) flourished, under the auspices of which the Banda Cittadina (Town Band) was active. The Società orchestrale polese (the Orchestral Society of Pula) was founded in 1906, and under its auspices also the Town School of Music. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, choirs and ...
ABSTRACT The art of good lesson planning and carrying out lessons using appropriate procedures, methods, techniques, in a word - technology, denotes a modern school. The success of a teaching ...process greatly depends on the professional competence of teachers and their knowledge of modern educational technology. Therefore, the final outcome of teacher education should be to achieve a high level of psychological-pedagogical knowledge and didactic competencies required for work in school and outside school. The course curricula and teaching content described in this paper are defined according to this guideline. The goal is to prepare students for a competitive labor market in our country and in the world, to integrate all levels of music education - from kindergarten to university, and to popularize music art. In order to determine the relationship between traditional teaching methods and lectures with the use of multimedia, research was conducted that showed that music students positively evaluated the use of multimedia in lessons. They perceive such lessons as effective, useful, understandable, interesting, dynamic, instructive and of high-quality, because they help save time and they correspond to contemporary teacher discourse. Keywords: contemporary methods, didactics of music, multimedia, music literature. --- SAŽETAK Umijeće kvalitetne pripreme i realizacije nastave uz uporabu prikladnih postupaka, metoda, tehnika, jednom riječju - tehnologije, odlikuje suvremenu školu. Uspješnost nastavnog procesa bitno ovisi o učiteljevim profesionalnim kompetencijama i poznavanju suvremene nastavne tehnologije. Stoga, konačan ishod školovanja učiteljskog kadra treba biti postizanje visoke razine psiho-pedagoških znanja i didaktičko-metodičkih kompetencija potrebnih za rad u školi i izvan nje. U ovom radu govori se o tehnologiji kao o čimbeniku koji bitno utječe na učiteljevu ulogu u procesu odgojno-obrazovnoga rada. Obrazovanje je danas u stalnom ciklusu mijenjanja, nadopunjavanja i (pre)usmjeravanja. Sve se njegove paradigme stalno propituju i revaloriziraju. Različiti noviteti postavljaju izazove pred sam koncept obrazovanja, modificiraju njegovo trajanje, ukazuju na potrebu cjeloživotnog usavršavanja. Jedna od najpoticajnijih novina jest upravo primjereno korištenje suvremene nastavne tehnologije koja utječe na rad nastavnog osoblja, na kvalitetu znanja učenika, studenata i poboljšanje njihovih kompetencija. Važno je osvijestiti kad i kako koristiti novu tehnologiju te kako se pripremiti za njezinu uporabu. Na tom su tragu postavljeni programi i sadržaji kolegija koje u okviru ovoga rada opisujemo. Cilj je pripremiti studente za konkurentno stručno tržište rada kod nas i u svijetu, povezati sve razine glazbenoga obrazovanja - od vrtića do fakulteta i popularizirati glazbenu umjetnost. S ciljem definiranja i utvrđivanja odnosa između klasičnih metoda poučavanja i suvremenih predavanja uz uporabu multimedije te utvrđivanja načina percepcije studenata u odnosu na multimedijsku nastavu, njezinu kvalitetu i svrsishodnost, proveli smo istraživanje u kojem je sudjelovalo 122 studenta glazbe dodiplomskog studija triju hrvatskih sveučilišta. Dobiveni rezultati pokazali su da korištenje tehnologije odgovara suvremenim potrebama nastave glazbe. Studenti glazbe pozitivno ocjenjuju predavanja uz uporabu multimedije i percipiraju ih efikasnim, korisnim, razumljivim, zanimljivim, dinamičnim, poučnim i kvalitetnim jer omogućavaju uštedu vremena te odgovaraju suvremenom nastavnom diskursu. Međutim, rezultati su pokazali i to kako studenti imaju pozitivno mišljenje o klasičnim predavanjima, frontalnim oblicima rada, polazeći od premise da multimedija sama po sebi nije jamstvo uspješne nastave, već je to stručan nastavnik, adekvatno predstavljeno i korisno gradivo te motiviran student. U konačnici, rezultati istraživanja upućuju na zaključak da je nastavna tehnologija djelotvorna pomoć u realizaciji nastavnoga procesa, no također da njezina uporaba, poput svih ostalih, tradicionalnijih materijala i programskih alata koji se pri poučavanju koriste, treba biti permanenetno podvrgnuta kritičkom promišljanju kako bi polučila optimalne ishode.Ključne riječi: suvremene metode, metodika glazbe, multimedija, glazbena literatura.

Two-part singing and a traditional idiom partly based on the so-called ‘Istrian scale’, which has been carefully preserved in Istria and the Croatian Littoral, but also found outside this area. The ...singing style is based on unequal temperament and uses a vigorous, partially nasal tone color. There is often a degree of improvisation and variation during the performance in both voices, though endings must always be in unison or at the octave. The scale can consist of anywhere from four to six notes. The chants are in most cases performed by two singers, singing in 3rds or 6ths. Musical instruments that are typically used in this style are the ‘sopele’ shawms, always played in a pair, and bagpipes (‘mih’). In many cases a given local sub-style will have developed its own characteristics. In ‘Kanat’, for instance, which is performed primarily by the Croatian population, the second voice is often replaced or doubled by a small ...
The competence for the use of advanced technologies is considered an extremely important competence for working in the teaching process. Their importance for education has been recognised at all ...levels, most of the basic documents linked to education point out that during their education young people have to acquire the basic competences which will qualify them for their use. The direct work with students at institutions of high education and the research of pedagogic practice
have shown that the use of ICT influenced the visible improvement in the preparation of teaching tasks, the performance of individual lectures and the realisation of teaching units during faculties or schools’ lessons. This article offers examples of application and design of multimedia tools by which the students of the Pula Music Academy have contributed to the music-educational practice.
During the Fascist dictatorship in Pula (Istria) musical activities were completely reorganized and subordinated to a strict political control. In order to gain a complete control over leisure time ...of the population, the Fasict party founded new organizations which, among other activities, also took care of the musical events. Gradually those institutions took complete control over previously established musical societies in Pula.
Osposobljenost za upotrebu suvremenih tehnologija u nastavi danas se smatra jednom od iznimno važnih kompetencija učitelja. Prepoznavanje važnosti njezinoga korištenja rezultira pomacima u pristupu ...podučavanja, promjenama metoda i oblika rada te napuštanjem isključivo tradicionalnih načina prijenosa i usvajanja znanja.
