HŮLOVÁ, Marie
This diploma thesis focuses on voice training of pupils in the first grade of the elementary school. The theoretical part of the thesis discusses music and voice education, specifics and particulars of children's voices. The major part is devoted directly to specific skills that form the base of a correct singing technique. This part of the thesis also includes a short summary of the mechanics of voice formation that every teacher should know. The goal of the practical part of the thesis is to assemble a collection of exercises focused on breathing, voice and articulation issues of children. The collection should help especially the beginner music teachers to find various types of exercise and implement them in practice. All the listed exercises could become an inseparable part of music education at the elementary school.

The master thesis with the topic: Music Programme For Preschool Children With Atypical Speech Development focuses mainly on speech development of children with different types of socio-cultural disadvantages. The theoretical part focuses on the effect of different mother tongues, bilingualism and other sociocultural disadvantages on speech development of preschool children. It highlights music education and its integrative character, especially in relation to physical education, drama and art education. The connection between music education and different types of learning is also found there, as well as the relationship of music education and the development of different types of intelligence as defined by Gardner. The theoretical part also presents the possibilities of using musical activities as a tool for supporting and nurturing the child's speech development, focusing on compensating for possible deficits expecially in the lexical-semantic and pragmatic levels of language.

Melichárková, Alžběta ; Veverková, Jana (advisor) ; Hurníková, Kateřina (referee)
The master's thesis is focused on the presence of folk music and culture in the work of four Czech authors, Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák, Leoš Janáček and Bohuslav Martinů. In the theoretical part, the composers are introduced in chronological order. The emphasis is put on the key moments and influences that subsequently shaped their relationship to folk music. There is also provided the historical and social context necessary for understanding the topic. Furthermore, there are also stated and described the compositions that are inspired by folk music or use it explicitly. The compositions are stated alongside corresponding sheet music. In the practical part, selected compositions, which were discussed in the theoretical part, are used as material for teaching activities. These activities were created for teaching music education at lower secondary schools. In the activities, accessible folk music is used as a mean to understand more demanding classical music. All activities are tested in pedagogical practice and are therefore provided with a description, goals, methodological commentary, and graphic materials.
