From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adam Václav Michna z Otradovic (c. 1600 – 1676) was a Catholic Czech hymn writer, composer, organist and choir leader. About 230 of his compositions from three Czech and two Latin collections are known today. Best known are his 3 hymn cycles, Česká mariánská muzika, Loutna česká and Svatoroční muzika. His verbal pictures are very vivid and aim to influence the senses.
