Jožef Robert Zupan was born in Kamnik in 1760 as the son of the well-known composer Jakob Frančišek Zupan. He joined the Cistercian Abbey in Kostanjevica na Krki (Landstraß), studied theology in Graz, and, following the dissolution of the abbey in 1786, remained in the Styrian capital until his death in 1819. There, he worked as a private teacher, moved in eminent social circles, and dedicated at least part of his time to composing music. His preserved and fairly modest compositional oeuvre comprises five works, which were published in Vienna and Graz at the end of the eighteenth century. The discussion at hand offers the first public presentation of the composer and his work.
