Jirák, inscribed to the Colombian musicologist Otto de Greiff, and dated February 24, 1938, with autograph note signed to verso apologizing for his tardy reply Author: JIRÁK, Karel Boleslav 1891-1972 Title: Postcard photograph signed K.B. Jirák, inscribed to the Colombian musicologist Otto de Greiff, and dated February 24, 1938, with autograph note signed to verso apologizing for his tardy reply Description: Slightly worn; two small photographer's stamps in red ink to verso not affecting text. Jirák, a Czech composer, was actively involved in the International Society for Contemporary Music in the 1920s and 30s. "Although [a] late Romantic disposition dominated his music's character, his thorough knowledge of prevailing trends in new music enabled him to modify his technique which - though not precisely ground-breaking or pioneering, rationally constructivist or highlighting a single approach - remained neither eclectic nor conservative." Milan Kuna in Grove Music Online.De Greiff (1903-1995) was highly instrumental in the promotion of contemporary music in South America.
