---
Czech composer, harpsichordist, oboist, organist, musicologist and
pedagogue. After graduating from the Prague Conservatory majoring in
organ studies, he went on to study oboe at the Janáček Academy of Music
and Performing Arts. He had worked as an oboist for the Prague Radio
Symphony Orchestra and Prague Chamber Orchestra. He was known for his
tenure as a professor of the Prague Conservatory where he had taught a
number of notable Czech oboe players (among them, his son Jan Thuri and
the soloist Vilém Veverka), who constitute the main corpus of current
soloists in Czech orchestras and solo oboe performers. In the Czech
Republic he was often called 'the last baroque composer', having written
an extensive number of works in baroque and early classicism style.
