The article follows the paths of the baroque sacred music repertoire between Bohemia and Silesia on the examples of music by Prague composers surviving mostly uniquely in the collections of Silesian origin. Music composed around 1700 by musicians working in the Prague cathedral Nicolaus Franz Xaver Wentzely, Tobias Ernestus Liehre and Johann Christoph Karl Gayer is the subject of the first case study. The hypothesis about the direct link between Prague and Wroclaw cathedral music ensembles is supported by new information about musicians derived from accounts of the Wroclaw cathedral from 1699. Thereinafter, Silesian sources of music by Wenzel Gunther Jacob and vesper psalms by Johann Joseph Ignaz Brentner are discussed.
