MUSIQUM | A Digital Panorama of Musical Heritage in Slovenia

MUSIQUM – A Digital Panorama of Musical Heritage in Slovenia is a relational database developed as an innovative research platform for the in-depth exploration of musical life in Slovenia during the 19th and early 20th centuries. It enables the complex interconnection of biographical data, archival sources, concert programs, newspaper reports, and correspondence, weaving them into a visually and narratively rich account of the cultural landscape of the period.The collection provides a systematic insight into musical developments in Ljubljana, Celje, Maribor, Ptuj, and Trieste, shedding light on the role of key musical institutions in shaping the public musical sphere. Through historical maps and analysis of the music market, it offers a comprehensive understanding of the cultural environment in which musicians, institutions, and audiences created, performed, and interacted.MUSIQUM goes beyond the conventional scope of a data repository—it is a multilayered digital platform dedicated to the research, interpretation, and discovery of musical phenomena within their broader historical, social, and political contexts. It is intended for scholars as well as anyone interested in cultural history, offering new perspectives on one of the most formative periods of Slovenia’s musical past.The database MUSIQUM was initiated and is led by Dr. Maruša Zupančič.Members: Dr. Marko Motnik, Dr. Katarina Bogunović, Tonja Čakš, Monika Marušič, Sara Zupančič, Dr. Nejc Sukljan, Jana Erjavec; Design: Dr. Maruša Zupančič.
