Summary
Saša Drach: Until the Last Choir - Vladimir Kranjčević Life and Work
The exhaustive biography of conductor Vladimir Kranjčević (1936-2020) was five years in the making. It is based on a series of long conversations with the maestro in his home and a careful study of the maestro's life, times and works. Books, newspaper articles, television and radio broadcasts, archives and numerous meetings with his pupils, students, fellow musicians and friends, all these were sources, as it is called in the publishing world today, for a definitive biography of a musician. If such a definitive biography were even possible. Avoiding an elitist approach, this comprehensive book gave an equal place to local music lovers and big stars of the time (such as Karajan and Ivo Pogorelić, Matačić and Milan Horvat, Ruža Pospiš Baldani and Dunja Vejzović, Melita Lorković and Oskar Danon), party and party bureaucrats from the provinces and powerful people from the country and the world (from Stepinc and Pope John Paul II, Queen Sofia of Spain and Grace Kelly, Kim Il-sung and Tito to Franjo Tuđman and Ivo Sanader), and music critics who did not always understand the maestro found their place there. "This book of monographic significance captivates from the first pages not only with the fluid and dynamic style in which it communicates with the reader, but also with the breadth of view with which it follows the life of the conductor and pedagogue Vladimir Kranjčević.
