Vienna for the Third Time (1928), or instead of a conclusion
This headline should be taken with a pinch of salt. I am not a specialist in
the “life and work” of M. Hubad, so I am not able to list all Hubad’s other
trips to Vienna and their contents. However, in my research, I came across
one of them. It is similar to the famous one from March 1896: on its concert
tour, the Glasbena Matica choir performed in several cities and towns in
Czechoslovakia (Budweis, Pilsen, Písek, Prague, Olomouc, Brno, Ostrava,
Bratislava) and on 30 April 1928 at Musikverein. This visit was in the centre
of attention of the Viennese Slavs, with numerous reports being brought by
the newspaper Vídeňský obdeník,51 among other things, about the welcome
at the station;52 there is also a review of the performance53 and a mention of
collaboration with the society of Viennese Slovenes.54

An interesting topic, which this study has only hinted at, is the com-
prehensive research into Hubad’s contacts with the Czech environment.
This would include, among other things, his efforts associated with the year
