Coping with demanding study responsibilities for conservatory students

Connections between breathing and playing string instruments
Kellerová, Anna ; ŽALUD, Radomír (advisor) ; HUDEC, Jiří (referee)
In my bachelor thesis I concentrate on the topic of relationship between breathing and various aspects of playing a string instrument. I approach the issue complexly, working with conditions that affect playing a string instrument as such and areas influencing the overall quality of life of an artist, and I search for their interrelations with breathing. The work consists of three major sections. The first chapter deals with the connection of breathing with physical aspects of playing a string instrument (position and movement by the instrument), the second is focused on the affect of breathing on psyche (especially the phenomenon of stage fright) and the third explores breathing in the context of musical expression. The work is based mainly on kinesiologic, psychological, musicologic and methodological literature, as well as on experts knowledge of special topics (obtained by means of personal consultation).
