IN MEMORIAM

DANICA PETROVIĆ (1945-2024) MUSICOLOGIST:

Life with Orthodox Music

 

Professor Danica PetroviΔ‡, Ph.D., academic advisor of the SANU Institute of Musicology reposed in retirement, having left a deep mark on the field of Orthodox Music.

 

She was born on December 2, 1945 in Belgrade, where she received primary, secondary and higher education. She finished her studies in musicology at the Faculty of Musical Arts in 1970, when she was chosen as an intern at the Musicological Institute of SANU, where she went through all educational degrees up to scientific advisor (1995) and director of the Institute (2001). She attended postgraduate studies in Oxford (1971), in Munich and Bojron, and defended her doctoral thesis "The Octoechos in the Musical Tradition of South Slavs" in 1980 at the Faculty of Philosophy in Ljubljana.

 

She has published more than two hundred and fifty studies in Serbian, English, German, French, Russian, Bulgarian and Hungarian languages. She prepared and edited three books of Serbian church chants by Kornelij StankoviΔ‡ (1993), two collections of hymns by Nenad Barački (1995, 2000) and a collection of hymns by Tihomir OstojiΔ‡ (2010). She is the initiator and chief editor of the collected works of Kornelij StankoviΔ‡. So far, two volumes of secular music and two books of church music from StankoviΔ‡'s manuscript legacy have been published. She wrote texts for domestic and foreign lexicographic publications. At the Academy of Arts in Novi Sad from 1993 to 2010, she taught History of Folk Music and trained the first generation of musicologists, masters and academic doctors. She was the director and selector of the International Festival of Spiritual Music in Novi Sad (1992, 1995).

 

She is the initiator of the "In Memoriam Cornelius" (Korneliju Uspomen) Summer School of Church Singing  in Sremski Karlovci, Jošanica Monastery, Sentandreja and Budapest. She was the author of the program and led the “In Memoriam Cornelius” School in Sremski Karlovci for a quarter of a century. She won the Sremski Karlovci award in 1997 for her contribution to the field of music, especially Karlovci liturgical chant.

 

The Eastern American Diocese offers its most heartfelt condolences to daughter Protinica Jelena, son-in-law Protopresbyter Vasilije, and grandchildren Petar and Mila Vranic. The late Danica was a well-known and widely respected part of our St. Luke Serbian Orthodox Church of Washington, DC.

 

MAY HER MEMORY BE ETERNAL!
