THE MOST IMPORTANT AUTHORS OF CLARINET ETUDES AND INSTRUCTIVE LITERATURE
Pátek, Matěj ; HLAVÁČ, Jiří (advisor) ; VENYŠ, Irvin (referee)
In my bachelor’s thesis, I introduce and subsequently compare six important publications of clarinet instructive literature and their authors, and focus on general problems of practising and performing clarinet etudes.
The first chapter answers the question what is an etude, and contemplates the meaning and means of etude practice. Second chapter briefly introduces selected authors (Cavallini, Jeanjean, Stark, Jettel, Zítek and Žebera), discusses their background and one particular work by each of them. Third chapter offers a comparison of the six selected works based on different aspects of clarinet performance and instructional purposes.
The selection of authors and pieces – a subjective basis of this thesis to some extent – finds objectivity through analysis and comparative method. The output of the thesis is mainly didactic and informative.

Development of clarinet play in folk music of the West Bohemian region
Jarábek, Josef ; HLAVÁČ, Jiří (advisor) ; MAREŠ, Vlastimil (referee)
The purpose of this Bachelor thesis is the description of the development of the clarinet play in a folk music in the region Chodsko. The thesis is based on the source comparison of sheet music and recordings from the year 1893 till now. It is focused on changes of flourishes, pace rhythmization and tuning. Together with this research there is also an effort to acquaint the reader with this West Bohemia region, which is one of the last regions keeping its traditions alive. In addition to the factual comparison of the particular folk music records the key part also represents interviews with local respondents where they express their opinions. These people live in above-mentioned region. On one side, these are long listeners of local folk music, on the other side, these are profesional musicians who devote themselves actively to folk music and traditions and who are also authors of arrangements and performances. This thesis can help today´s interpreters of folk music, not only in Chodsko. It demonstrates the proof of the visible progress of the clarinet play and the fact that more and more professional musicians are dedicated to folk music.

Interpretation analysis of sonata Es Dur op.120 No. 2 by Johannes Brahms
Tseliapniou, Kiryl ; HLAVÁČ, Jiří (advisor) ; VENYŠ, Irvin (referee)
This work is an analytical view of the clarinet sonata E flat major of one of the most important German composers in the Romantic period, I. Brahms. German composer Johannes Brahms has created his own and distinctive creative style over time. He is the last one of the foremost German music in the 19th century. The aim of this work is to understand the principle of communication of the holistic analysis of this work and also the understanding of the work done for correct interpretation in the historical context. This sonata, along with the first Brahms sonata, is one of Brahms's favorite works and is repertoire for many performers. This work focuses on the brief history of this sonata, the author's biography of Brahms, the influence of the analysis on the interpretation of the composition and the complete analysis of the sonata.

The phenomenon Milan Kostohryz.
Žitný, Radek ; HLAVÁČ, Jiří (advisor) ; MAREŠ, Vlastimil (referee)
This thesis presents research about the very successful career of the Czech musician and pedagogue Milan Kostohryz (1911-1998). He made a substantial contribution to composition of new pieces, re-building historical instruments, developing new instruments, revising many old compositions, and he gave instruction to a number of excellent players. His work made impact and gained recognition on an international level. The research in this thesis is based mainly on original written correspondence, and partially on personal memories of his contemporaries and family, as well as on a few public resources and preserved sound recordings.

Viktor Kalabis and his production for clarinet focusing on chamber music
Černohouzová, Jana ; HLAVÁČ, Jiří (advisor) ; MAREŠ, Vlastimil (referee)
My doctoral thesis "Viktor Kalabis and his production for clarinet focusing chamber music" concentrates on the composer´s chamber pieces for clarinet and other instruments. Overall, I shall be writing about two pieces written during his student years (Suite for clarinet and piano, Sonata for clarinet and piano) and about five pieces with opus numbering (Divertimento for woodwind quintet op. 10, Small Chamber music for woodwind quintet op. 27, Sonata for clarinet and piano op. 30, Suite for clarinet and piano op. 55, Impressions for two clarinets op. 87).
The first chapter of the thesis deals with the composer´s musical inspirations. I speak about the development of Kalabis´composing style and I write about his perception of the individual instruments. The next part deals with the interpreter´s perspective describing how to perform these compositions.
My thesis is divided into chapters dealing with the individual pieces written by Viktor Kalabis. In each chapter I speak the circumstances of origin, musical form and my experience with performing these compositions. I offer different opinions for practice and interpretation. In the course of several years, I cooperated with amazing musicians like, for example, Daniel Wiesner (piano), Jana Jarkovská, Daniel Havel (flute), Jana Kopicová (oboe), Adéla Tribeneklová, Jan Musil (horn, Jana Hudeček (bassoon) and lots of interesting musical ideas came to existence during our cooperation. I compare my findings with other recordings, analyzing their approach and their realizations. This thesis also includes a recording of two pieces without opus numbers, wich became the first recording of these pieces ever.

Dissolved Air Flotation – From Pilot Plant to Full Scale Implementation
Dobiáš, Pavel ; Hlaváč, Jaroslav (referee) ; Janda,, Václav (referee) ; Vávrová, Milada (referee) ; Dolejš, Petr (advisor)
The thesis deals with the use of dissolved air flotation (DAF) in water treatment technology in the Czech Republic. It summarizes the knowledge gained at pilot plant studies as well as the experience with full-scale flotation units which have been built in potable water treatment plants in the Czech Republic in years 2006-2018. This thesis provides a broad background of experimental studies of a modern separation process, which does have great advantages in the removal of natural organic matter and microorganisms from water in the drinking water treatment industry. In this thesis, there are presented some examples of the excellent efficiency of the microorganisms removal, both under the experimental conditions as well as water treatment plants, which were improved by DAF units installation in full scale. In addition to the high separation efficiency, it is shown, how DAF units could influence the subsequent separation steps as for example filtration through the granular media. The negative influence of the pre-ozonization on the DAF separation efficiency in Hradec Králové WTP is demonstrated too. The results of the pilot experiments support the idea, that the key condition for high removal efficiency is the optimal coagulation process chemistry. Design of pilot experiments was based on the factorial planning theory and some results are discussed in this thesis. The very big portion of the pilot experiments was made for estimating of the full-scale DAF design parameters before the water treatment plants reconstruction phase

Design of presentation electric switchboard for LV
Hlaváč, Jan ; Štefanov, Marek (referee) ; Bátora, Branislav (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with the design of electric switchgear for low voltage, which will serve for presentation purposes. The switchgear is analogy of the modular system MNS 3.0, which includes the latest equipment of ABB Ltd. that is currently available on the market. Switchgears of this type are widely used in industry primarily for controlling motor units. For this reason, in the switchgear there are located motor starters in various performances, as well as distribution modules. In addition, the switchgear has an automatic transfer switch function in case of failure of one of the power supplies. The complete documentation of the switchgear is processed in the professional software EPLAN Electric P8 with use of the 3D software EPLAN Pro Panel for modelling device compartments. The final part of the thesis is the calculation of the maximum cable lengths that a potential customer can connect to the switchgear. In addition, an analysis of the power and control circuits was carried out for voltage drop calculations, as well as the effect of these voltage drops and capacitance of long control cables on the actuation of contactors.
