Second string quartet was written in the highest creative period of Janáček´s output. It was written 1928 few month before composer´s death. It describes feelings and passion of love to Kamila Stösslová ( Janáček´s gerlfriend). First interpret of this work was The Maravian quartet.Second string quartet belongs to the best of works of 20. century written for string quartet.It accomplishes principles of modality, folk elements, tectonic etc.It wasn´t published until 1938. Smetana, Janáček and Vlach quartets are our chief ensembles. We can admire their interpretative art from fifties of 20.century. My work also compares recordings of Smetana quartet from 1976, vlach quartet from 1969 and Janáček quartet from 1963.These recordings are demonstrations of high interpretative art of our prominent quartet ensembles. Smetana quartet stand out at excellent interplay, tuning, intonation, sence for whole buiding of phrases, Janáček quartet at compactness of the sound, elaborations of details, long sites and Vlach quartet at accomplished sensibility for colours of sound and mood.

History of the Prague Symphony Orchestra and it´s representative concertmasters
Vrabcová, Monika ; Štraus, Ivan (advisor) ; Štraus, Ivan (advisor) ; Tomášek, Jiří (referee) ; Pazdera, Jindřich (referee)
FOK. The notion which have marked the awareness of concert visitors, record collectors or even cinema lovers with an indelible trace in the decades of its existence... A Cinderella who, due to admirable human efforts, passed through necessary imperfections of early youth, turbulent growing up, melancholy of middle age, betrayals of fate and passions of society, and blossomed into mature and spiritual beauty. The ensemble, originally created as a last resort for unemployed musicians, have managed to gain respect on an international scale in the course of time and it united a whole range of the most renowned conductors and soloist names with the memory of cooperation. As a loyal companion of Prague, it has kept being sucked into the vortex of the city's history, celebrating triumphs, being shaken by downfalls, it has been tempered by fate itself as well as it has tempered with the fates of others, it has always represented an enticing challenge for many biographers. It is, therefore, a major theme of the whole range of already published writings. In the area of biographical data described so much in detail, one can hardly produce new, so far unknown information. Nevertheless, I think that a view from the inside, through the optics of my own interpretative experience as an deputy concertmaster, could enrich the available literature by many observations, however subjective they may necessarily be.
The study describes the winding paths of fate, along which the orchestra's history has passed in the course of long years. It illuminates the ambience of pioneer beginnings, the formation of the ensemble under almost garage conditions, it maps out the ?Golden Age?, when favourable circumstances brought the best opportunities for artistic development and for an establishment of our reputation both on the domestic and international scenes. It mentiones in greater detail 3 significant organiser and conductor personalities: Dr. Rudolf Pekárek,
Dr. Václav Smetáček and Jiří Bělohlávek, whose contributions were fundamental to the orchestra's development. In the chapter ?foreign concert tours?, readers will learn about the almost ridiculous influence of political pressures of the communist powers-that-be on the form of guest performances abroad and on the comfort of the musicians. The central points of the work are sections dealing with concertmasters. Some of the personalities, who held this post in the orchestra in the past, reminiscence in an interesting way about their activity in the orchestra FOK and they give us their own opinion about the ideal of a concertmaster. Through the words of his widow, Mrs. Míla Smetáčková, even the legendary chief conductor Václav Smetáček comes to express his opinion; the FOK was his fate for the whole 30 years. The conclusion of the work reveals partly the contemporary situation while anticipating the future and mentions extraordinary dramaturgical and marketing ideas, which help the orchestra to face the adversities of the present age, unkind to its own culture.

Burda, Antonín ; Tomášek, Jiří (advisor) ; Tomášek, Jiří (advisor) ; Messiereur, Petr (referee) ; Hůla, Pavel (referee)
I present my bachelor's work whose theme is The Austrian violin virtuoso and composer Fritz Kreisler. In the first chapter of my work I deal with Fritz Kreisler's life, studies and career. The second chapter refers to Fritz Kreisler as an interpreter. According to recordings I attempt to discover the aspects of Kresler's technique and the ways of interpretation of his compositions or of pieces of other authors. I also try to describe what musical means Kreisler employed innovatively as the first person and in what his exceptionality lied. In the third chapter I pursue F. Kreisler as a composer. I focus both on his compositions and on his transcriptions.
