Ladislav Vycpálek: cantata Blessed is the Man…
Kraftová, Nikol ; Ottlová, Marta (advisor) ; Gabrielová, Jarmila (referee)
The following bachelor thesis aims to explain the cantata Blessed is the Man… in the context of the contemporary cantata's production and through the reception of Ladislav Vycpálek's works. The opening chapter provides the composer's full biography with a list of his non- music activities and awards. The next part presents some testimonies of the composer's personality and a summary dealing with the acceptance of Vycpálek's works by his contemporary peers. It also takes into account the references of his music in academic publications. Afterwards, Vycpálek's own analysis of his cantatas is addressed and a general view of the Czech contemporary cantata's production is put into perspective. The actual discussion on Blessed is the Man… enriches through an interpretation of its libretto; it also stands as a summary of performances as well as its reviews. Lastly, the closing chapter states on the diverse turns in the reception of the cantata and Vycpálek's music during the 20th and 21st century; it basically looks for its own reasons and the context.
Rafael Kubelík's aesthetic preferences in the light of the Munich sources
Kraftová, Nikol ; Ottlová, Marta (advisor) ; Gabrielová, Jarmila (referee)
This dissertation deals with the aesthetic opinions of conductor Rafael Kubelík as evidenced in the materials available in archives and cultural institutions in Munich as well as in the recollections of Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra members from the time of Kubelík's direction of that ensemble. The study includes an overview with commentary of the repertoire performed by Kubelík in subscription concerts by the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, which along with Kubelík's comments and in comparison with the programme of other guest conductors indicates Kubelík's programming activities and probably his musical preferences. This study also discusses Kubelík's interest in opera and his ideas on its staging and production. Other chapters deal with Kubelík's qualities as a conductor and the specific demands he made on his performers. It also includes a curriculum vitae of Rafael Kubelík and a number of recollections by people who knew him, all of which serve to fill out the overall picture of Kubelík's personality.
