Jakubcová, Anna ; PIVODA, Radomír (advisor) ; VÁLEK, Jiří (referee)
This bachelor.s thesis speaks about works by Johann Sebastian Bach, in which we can find a flute score. It should be a summary . it is necessary to mention the cantatas, masses, brandenburg concertos and also very important flute sonatas. We also talk about works, which are not authentic, but which were for a long time played under Bach?Ls name. I also put the transcriptions into the list, which are now played on the flute (for example Six Suites for Unaccompanied Cello Suites BWV 1007-12). This thesis should make easier to find information about these works. Because of the chronological list we can find out the origin and the purpose of the work. Details can be found in certain chapters. You can also find a chapter about Helmuth Rilling and his point of view.
