Abstract

This work was elaborated during the Professional Masters in Music degree at the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), in the area of musical performance. The objective of this research is to highlight the artistic and pedagogical career of Zdenek Svab, promoting through his trajectory a search engine for education, research and musical appreciation with special reference to the French horn. Svab is a Czech horn player and teacher based in Brazil since 1968 and who has become one of the main references of the instrument in the country. During the research, an inventory of documents was acquired, such as: programs, newspapers cuttings, magazines, audios, videos and photographs. Organized chronologically, this material illustrates his trajectory as an artist and teacher in a timeline. The results of this collection were established in a Virtual Space, where contents will be made available for the appreciation of the horn community, as well as for researchers who have a close relationship with the subject, thus enabling new discoveries, facts and information that can contribute to the teaching and music making of the horn in Brazil.
