Karel Bendl, orGerman:Karl Bendl, pseudonym:Podskalský (16 April 1838, Prague,Bohemia,Austrian Empire – 20 September 1897, Prague) was a Czech composer.
Bendl was born and died inPrague. He studied at the organ school, where he met and befriendedAntonín Dvořák one year before graduating with honors in 1858. By then he had already composed a number of small choral works. In 1861 hisPoletuje holubice won a prize and at once became a favorite with the local choral societies. In 1864, Bendl went toBrussels, where for a short time he held the post of second conductor of the opera.[1] In Paris, he became influenced by the stage works ofCharles Gounod andAmbroise Thomas and especially byGiacomo Meyerbeer.
Bendl's first operaLejla was successfully produced in 1868. It was followed byBřetislav a Jitka (1870),Starý ženich, a comic opera (1883),Karel Škréta (1883),Dítě Tábora, a prize opera (1892), andMáti Míla (1891). Other operas by Bendl areIndická princezna,Černohorci, a prize opera, and the two operasČarovný květ andGina.His balladŠvanda dudák acquired much popularity; he published amass inD minor for male voices and another mass for amixed choir; two songs to "Ave Maria"; aviolin sonata and astring quartet Op.119 in F Major; and a quantity of songs and choruses, many of which have come to be regarded as national possessions of Bohemia.[1]
