The Religious Music in the Catholic Circle in Riga at the Time of its Belonging to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth

Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the subject of religious music in the Catholic circle in Riga in the years 1582–1621. This was the time of the recatholisation efforts undertaken by the Jesuits who ar- rived there. The time was characterised by numerous religious and secular conflicts between the native inhabitants of the city – Lutherans and Catholics. The purpose of this article is to discuss the references in documents attesting to the musical life of Catholics in Riga, as well as to present the only surviving musical source – an organ tablature compiled in the Jesuit community, now stored in the Uppsala universitetsbibliotek under the shelfmark Vok. mus. i hs. 88.
