Summary
UDC 78
The paper is a well-rounded biography of the composer, teacher, and conductor Herib-
ert Svetel (1895−1962) that is mostly based on documents from family archives. Svetel first
studied law in Prague and, after the end of the World War I, in Ljubljana, where he grad-
uated in 1923. After graduation, he worked in the civil service of the City of Ljubljana. He
acquired the foundations of his music education at the school of the Music Society Glas-
bena matica in Ljubljana, where he studied piano, violin, organ, and theoretical subjects.
He remained closely associated with Czech culture and individuals throughout his life.
He studied violin with the Czech Josip Vedral, was married to a Czech, and as the head
of the National Railway Music Society Sloga, he had friendly contacts with the Prague
Conservatory. He entered the social scene as a choirmaster of the Choral Society Slavec
(1920‒1922) and then established himself as a pianist, concert accompanist, and improvis-
er. He started composing as a teenager. An important milestone is the year 1926, when
he began working as an accompanist and assistant conductor at the Opera in Ljublja-
na, where he became acquainted with the performing arts. On the recommendation of
Matej Hubad, in the same year, he took over the position of choirmaster of the Nation-
al Railway Music Society Sloga. He participated in the founding of the Society’s Music
School (1926) and proved to be a dedicated teacher. In 1929, he became the artistic direc-
