Moučková, Michaela ; Rak, Štěpán (advisor) ; Boušková, Jana (referee) ; Zelenka, Milan (referee)
As the title itself could reveal, the aim of my bachelor work was to show a complete picture of guitar music of 20th century in Latin America. From my own perspective, exactly this continent with its own specific musical culture, belongs to one of the most interesting in the ?ocean? of music in general. This ?ever-lasting? attraction proves, that modern latin-american music, which by its own meaning and literature, can equal the classical-romantic music for guitar.
First chapter traces the global evolution and growth of the modern classical guitar, which origins we can already start noticing in the middle of 19th century. I also mention names of famous guitar performers, builders and composers from different parts of World, living around 1900 and also contemporary ones. In one of sections I sum up the image of guitar of the 20th century, what I consider to be necessary for making a full picture of position of the classical guitar in latin-american music.
In second chapter I focus on the most specific types of folk music of Latin America, which are described in 6 sections. In each of these sections I describe each type thru its history, sources and musical-stuctural proportions, casually thru significant famous individuals who formed the type, or made it widely recognized. Each section includes small score examples, which should demonstrate and complement full nature of each type.
In third, last chapter, I deal with the most important guitar composers of Latin America. Under a short biography of each composer and signifiant moments in their lifes, I introduce the important works for guitar of each of them. One of the sections then points out the major and even today very current, latin-american guitar school, which is still widely used for teaching at the musical institutes in many countries around the world.
Conclusion then highlights in a few sentenses importace and sound originality of the guitar in the world of music, not only in Latin America.
