Organ-makers of the Jesuit order and their instruments in the baroque era
Frei, Vojtěch ; Oulíková, Petra (advisor) ; Pučalík, Marek (referee)
The bachelor thesis Organ-makers of the Jesuit order and their instruments in the baroque era concentrates on the phenomenon of organ-makers - religious or lay brothers among a significant religious order operating throughout the Czech lands since the sixteenth century - Society of Jesus. It aims to not only present the personalities themselves but also their instruments, both in terms of art and handicraft and the musical aspect. From the art historical perspective, it observes mainly the organ case as an element of the church furniture and its relation to the interior. The thesis also purports to become a factual contribution to the aforementioned area; so far, only a handful of academic texts have dealt with the topic.

Organbuilding Company Rieger
Lyko, Petr
This paper reflects one of the largest European organ companies, operating from the late 19th century to the second decade of the 21st century. The company was founded under the name Gebrüder Rieger in 1873 in the Silesian town of Krnov (then the German name Jägerndorf). In 1904 it changed its name to Rieger, which was used until the end of the Second World War. After its termination, the German owners were expelled, the factory was then taken over under national administration and subsequently nationalized. At the same time, a smaller organ workshop by Josef Kloss was also included. The factory has since used the Rieger-Kloss brand on its instruments. After 1989, the plant was privatized, but ended its activity in 2015. The work follows not only the history of the company, but also the issues of artistic and structural specifics of the Krnov instruments. On the artistic level, these organs were, in the beginning, heavily influenced by the paradigm of the so-called romantic organ (or even the stimulus of the Cecilian reform), which in Central Europe experienced the greatest development at the time of the founding of the company, and culminated at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, and then by the ideas of the reformist organ movement that has affected the production of the factory since about...

Linhart, Marián ; Bělohlávková, Petra (advisor) ; Valášek, Marek (referee)
This bachelor thesis gives an overview about church music in the church of St. Lawrence in Náchod since the 16th century to contemporaneousness. The first mention of music in the dean's church originates in the first half of the 16th century, when a Literati Brotherhood was operating there, which is dealt with in a separate chapter. The church choir can be considered as its modern successor. The work mentions a non-liturgical musical production in the dean's church, which is nowadays organised mainly by various Náchod choirs. The main goal of this thesis is to find out as much information as possible about organists and choirs of St. Lawrence's church in Náchod. Organists-schoolmasters from the 17th to the 19th century are mentioned in here. The thesis deals with the 20th century in more detail, especially with its 2nd half. In the 20th century, musicians at the choir of St. Laurence's church were often inherently connected with the musical activity of the town. Some of them led Pěvecký sbor Hron (choir), conducted brass bands and orchestras or played the piano to accompany silent films. In the second half of the 20th century, some of the musicians had to face various persecutions of the communist regime at that time. Regarding this information, a chapter on a Náchod youth group, which began to...
