Wofgang Boettcher - life and music
Petr, Václav ; KAŇKA, Michal (advisor) ; ERICSSON, Mikael (referee)
This thesis seeks to familiarize the reader with a unigue personality of Wolfgang Boettcher. This is the first comprehensive text on this brilliant cellist.It analyzes his from a childhood to the present. Deals in detail with his family and portrays the details and the background of a musical growing up. Introduces the reader to all important milestones in the life of Wolfgang and to his meetings with important personalities, which were the most important of his professional growth. I am trying to introduce Wolfgang Boettcher not only as a musician, cellist and teacher, but also as a big heart and depthless love of music. In the second part of work is detailed history of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra as it has played very important role in his life.

Music and words in the chamber cycles Lukáš Hurník
Franěk, Milan ; Nedělka, Michal (advisor) ; Bezděk, Jiří (referee) ; Pecháček, Stanislav (referee)
The emphasis of this thesis was put on a complex analysis of two cycles, which belong to the rather abundant vocal output of Lukáš Hurník. A second chapter became essential which explicitly discusses these aspects in detail. There were several factors which motivated me to choose this topic: musical and literary content and its parameters as well as the emerging views on pedagogical interpretation in a current school. However, I did not primarily follow the exact explication of these incitations, which would normally be conclusive for the chosen compositions. I also did not determine the exact educational level in which these compositions could be used. This offers numerous variable possibilities of usage, depending on which result of the analysis will be preferred by a particular educator, to which purpose and in what situation he decides to use this composition. The main interest was therefore to make sure, that certain impulses to this interpretation would be clearly evident in the results of these analyses but simultaneously would not claim to be dogmatically untouchable. Even though the main point of my observation was the complex analysis, containing all the attributes of a serious study, 1 could not act schematically. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

History of interpretation and understanding of European music in Japan
Keiko, Michiyo ; KUSNJER, Ivan (advisor) ; HLAVÁČ, Jiří (referee)
The history of European music in Japan: how people have changed their perception, understanding and interpretation of it over the past 150 years. During the reign of the Tokugawa Shogunate, Japan was closed off from the rest of world. It was only with the arrival of US warships in 1853, that one year later the country was forced to terminate its isolation. More than 150 years have passed since Japanese people began to listen to and appreciate western music, and it has been 136 years (1879) since Western music was first introduced into the Japanese school education system. 150 years is not a long enough time-span. So how has the Japanese approach to Western music developed in these years? In this work, I consider the adoption and development of Western music in Japan not only against a musical background but also from a historical perspective; I take into account factors such as the development of Japanese culture and industry not to mention the unique character and attitudes of the Japanese people.

Mrkvová, Tereza ; Filipová, Alena (advisor) ; Zeman, Jiří (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the topic Music in commercial environment, its influence on psyche and shopping behaviour of human. The goal of this thesis is to characterize the position of music in commercial environment, state present and future opportunities how to use music in this environment and also to find the influence of music on human and its behaviour. The first chapter states that the music can really influence human and its perception of things. Music can influence human mood, feelings, perception of environment and product and it can affect also human behaviour and performance. Second chapter lists theories which explain the influence of music and the schemes of the influencing process on human. These theories are in the third chapter connected with the real influence on human behaviour and demonstrated on performed experiments. In the fourth chapter there are named present and future trends concerning music in commercial environment, for instance ambient music, sonic branding, and sensory merchandising. The fifth chapter deals with problem concerning ethical and health aspects, because music in commercial environment influences human subconsciously. Last chapter tries to evaluate the development of music in commercial environment in the future. Music is very important part of commercial environment, which offers a lot of opportunities for the future. Unfortunately, the potential of music is currently being underestimated. With help of music can be influenced not only a mental but also a physical part of human personality and also shopping decision-taking and shopping behaviour.


Music in advertising in Studio Zlín between 1930 and 1940. Martinů's The Lady's shoe in context
Cechová, Martina ; Havelková, Tereza (advisor) ; Klimeš, Ivan (referee)
Anotation The Diploma paper, which is focused on advertisements of Studio Zlín in the 1930's, gives a coherent review of history, development and the role of advertisement in the Baťa company and reaches as far as the promotional motion picture in Zlín. It was being formed in continuity with the development of sound motion picture, which appeared, as one of the first, in Paris. This is where Bohuslav Martinů (8 December 1890 - 28 August 1959), who composed advertisement music Střevíček (The Lady's shoe) for the Baťa company in 1935, stayed at the time. The motion picture is classed with the period context of the film industry, sound motion picture and film advertisements. The goal of the presented text is to analyze in detail the music component of the promotional film Střevíček and to compare it with the other six Zlín advertisements. It was necessary, in order to compare these films, to study the function of sound dramaturgy in film (advertisement) and to deal with existing sound instruments and their proportions in promotional films in Zlín. The result of the work is the comparison of the use of these instruments and the correspondence of sound and picture in Baťa advertisements in consideration of Střevíček. Many new findings, such as specification of the work process during the composition of motion...

The historical influences of Petr Eben's music
Menoušek, Radek ; Slavický, Milan (advisor) ; Douša, Eduard (referee)
Jako námět pro svou rigorózní práci jsem zvolil téma "Vl i vy historické hudby v tvorbě Petra Ebena", neboť v jeho kompozičním jazyce dochází k pozoruhodné symbióze prvků archaických s moderním vyjadřováním. Napojení hudebního myšlení Petra Ebena na rozsáhlou oblast historické hudby je sice všeobecně známou věcí, avšak dosud nebyla pojednána v odpovídající šíři a úplnosti (o problematice liturgického uplatnění citátů v jeho dílech nemluvě). Nejdříve bych rád předeslal, že jsem měl k Ebenově tvorbě jistý osobní vztah již před záměrem zpracovávat toto téma, protože jsem jednak řadu jeho děl provedl coby interpret, a také jako skladatel mám svým kompozičním stylem velice blízko k jeho hudební řeči. Trvalým zdrojem inspirace je mi také fenomén gregoriánského chorálu či historická hudba 17. - 18. století. I z tohoto hlediska je mi Ebenův kompoziční jazyk tak blízký ... Je třeba připomenout, že sice některé kapitoly již byly součástí mé diplomové práce, ale i ty jsem tu rozšířil a dále rozpracoval (zcela nově přibyly např. pasáže, týkající se gregoriánského hymnu "lam lucis orto sidere", v úvodu finální věty symfonie Noční hodiny apod.). Soustředil jsem se především detailněji na ty hudební plochy, jež jsou pro moji práci relevantní (např. partie obsahující historické prvky, techniky či citáty). V Ebenově tvorbě...
