Attraction and Problems of the Antonín Dvořáks Piano Works
Víšek, Tomáš ; Palkovská, Jana (advisor) ; Gregor, Vít (referee) ; Havlík, Jaromír (referee)
This thesis endeavours to fill a gap in the specialized literature concerning the interpretation of Dvořák's compositions. His works for piano are often overlooked and marginalized. As this thesis was written at a pedagogical fakulty, it should be suitable as an expert guide for active performers who are interested in Dvořák's piano compositions. However, it will also be useful to those still on their way to discovering these works. There are step by step analyses of all the piano works for two hands. Very detailed musical examples and comparisons aim to bring their compositional beauty closer to the performer and also offer advice on how to overcome or avoid problems that may arise while studying them. (Dvořák was a competent pianist, but he did not have any continuous training nor indeed any desire to be a concert pianist.) This detailed study of the individual pieces is completed by a well-drafted summary of Dvořák's pianistic education and execution and concise information being gained through the previous analyses. Finally there is a passage outlining the suitability and choice amongst Dvořák's piano music for young musicians and a basic list of pianists dedicated to the performance of Dvořák's music in the Czech Republic and abroad. KEYWORDS - Antonín Dvořák - piano playing - piano...

Piano trio in the context of its historical, musical and interpretational development
Pichlíková, Markéta ; Tomášek, Jiří (advisor) ; Palkovská, Jana (referee)
This diploma work aims to map to some depth the history of piano trio, to introduce the reader to individual pieces for this arrangement, to present the origins and fortunes of the leading Czech and international ensembles, and to compare their way of interpretation. In the first part of this document we will take a look at the absolute beginnings of chamber music and later development of this musical segment. We will concentrate on the history of the trio, developed from trio sonata that become the principal chamber type during baroque. At the turn of 18th and 19th century we can see its present form. It became one of the most popular musical forms, taking an important place in the work of all four "Viennese classics". We can find some occasional piano trios from Haydn and Mozart, composed primarily for the purpose of private conduction of music. Piano trios of L. v. Beethoven and F. Schubert however present a decisive step in the direction of artistic originality. Mature work of these authors represents zenith of the genre, successfully maintained later on by Schumann, Brahms, Dvořák, Smetana and other romantic representatives, who were using the form as ideal means to convey the most internal of their feelings. Meeting of three completely different instruments allows the composers to merge...
