IVO TIJARDOVIC 1974

Priča o jednom od najvećih jugoslovenskih operetskih kompozitora bi mogla da se otegne unedogled. To je čovek čije su operete Splitski akvarel i Mala Flramie igrane hiljadama puta u pozorištu na Terazijama u Beogradu. A da ne pričamo o ostalim scenama Jugoslavije.

Ovo je jedan manji prikaz njegove klasične i operetske muzike ali sa jako lepim temama.

IVO molim Vas da nam pokažete svu lepotu Vaše muzike. Hvala za puno lepe muzike koje ste ostavili za nas sa prostora bivše Jugoslavije.

Ivo Tijardović (September 18, 1895 in Split, Austria-Hungary – March 19, 1976 in Zagreb, SR Croatia, Yugoslavia) was a Croatian and Yugoslavian composer, writer and painter.

Tijardović studied music in Split and in Vienna, where he also studied architecture. He graduated from the Zagreb drama school in 1922. He then worked as conductor and stage designer at the Split Municipal Theatre (1922–9) before joining the music department of the Edison Bell Penkala recording company in Zagreb (1929–33). Returning to Split, he became director of the Croatian National Theatre, stage director of the Croatian National Theatre in Zagreb, and director of the State Symphony Orchestra (later, the Zagreb Philharmonic). As a composer, he relied on folklore and a national musical expression, especially of his native region of Dalmatia. He composed eight operettas, the best known of which are Mala Floramye ("Little Floramye") and Splitski Akvarel ("The Split Aquarelle"), which conjure the magic of Split between to the two world wars. His operas dealt with historical themes. He also painted and worked as an illustrator.
