The study maps the life and creative legacy of Emanuel Ambrose (1885–1955), who significantly influenced the cultural development in Moravia. From the position of secondary school teacher, popular-educational worker and music critic he educated the widest social classes of population during the era which absented some of today's inherent mass media. Ambrose's organizational ambitions found application in Olomouc and Brno where, in addition to cooperation with local associations, he initiated the establishment of new corporations, or organized valuable concert productions.
