How to work with the museum's computer software, how the describing terms from part 2 are used in the database and how they can help us while working with instruments, these topics are included here. 4. In part four we can find numerical and graphical evaluation of the content of collection based on work with the museum's computer software and the describing system devised for this purpose. 5. This part offers basic organographical description of the musical instruments formerly long-lastingly exhibited. (Since 2001 floods whole collection unapproachable.) 6.

Gamelan as an Actor: Life of Javanese Gamelan in Prague
Koubek, Daniel ; Zdrálek, Vít (advisor) ; Šidlo Friedl, Marian (referee)
This work investigates the life of Javanese gamelan in Prague (the Czech Republic). The author's intention was both to show the differences between the lives of the two sets of instruments of Javanese gamelan that currently can be found there in the Czech Republic. In his argument, that is highly dependent on using the Actor-Network Theory, these instruments' different historical social roles, narratives, lie beyond their meanings as things, but can only be observed when understanding them as actors forsing people to particular behavior and way of thinking about them. In other words, the author analysed the way how people who had ever played one or both these gamelans describe their relation to these instruments or what they found to be the most valuable aspect for them about playing Javanese gamelan in Prague. While a strong fascination by the gamelan instruments from the Liběchov castle can be observed among people who had played them after they were brought to the Czechoslovakia in 1989 as a result of the Czechoslovakia-Indonesian diplomatic relation, in case of the gamelan possessed by Embassy of Indonesia in Prague, mainly people who had already been to Indonesia in person become those who furthermore currently spread the competence of playing the Javanese gamelan in the Czech Republic.

Holcová, Alžběta ; Zdrálek, Vít (advisor) ; Šidlo Friedl, Marian (referee)
This bachelor thesis is concerned through musical-ethnographic method with functioning of Prague catholic choir Rytmig of church of st. Ignatius on Charles Square dealing with contemporary christian popular music. I try to understand the meaning of this musical activity not only in the context of catholic liturgy, by means of ethnomusicological research, that is from the view of active participant. I use the book Music as Social Life by Thomas Turino and work with the topic of music function of liturgy and other non-liturgical meetings of the schola. Regarding methodology, I use the ethnomusicological handbook for students by Simone Krüger and the book L'entretien compréhensif (in original) by Jean-Claude Kaufmann, dealing with method of interview, which comprises main part of the material. I am also concerned with approach to rehearsals and the emphasis on inclusivity, which takes preference over result. The opportunity of participation on liturgical performance and other activities is offered to everyone regardless of ability, experience or even religion. Keywords: ethnomusicology, choir, liturgy, catholic church, inclusivity, music function
