Mikeš, Jan ; Tomášek, Jiří (advisor) ; Tomášek, Jiří (advisor) ; Štraus, Ivan (referee) ; Pazdera, Jindřich (referee)
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.

Kreisler describes there his memories from the war. This book says maybe nothing about music, however, it is very important and very emotional part of his life.

In first chapter I mention relationship between Mozart and violin, his start in understanding this string instrument, then we go to a brief opening about Mozartś life and afterwards we shortly go over the chronologic succession of some of his pieces of music. His work with the use of violin is immense, so in the two following chapters I restricted this range only to several pieces, namely, violin concerts and several violin sonatas with piano.
