Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with features and articles on music and art published in the journal Danica, in the period 1860–1872. Selected articles contain signifi cant testimonies on the place of musical practice in the everyday life of Serbs and other Slavic people living in the AustrоHungarian Empire in the nineteenth century. The feature articles abound with details on the artistic activities of respected individuals and singing societies, popular cultural-artistic events (besedas, balls, dances), new publications on music and other news. Several articles were dedicated to aesthetic and philosophical views on art. In a separate section of this paper, I analyse the narrative style of these articles.
