From a Living Tradition to the Theory: Comments on the Origin of the Term ‘Zahušťování’ in Janáček’s Terminology
Procházková, Jarmila
The contribution of Czech composer Leoš Janáček (1854–1928) to music theory has been appreciated especially in the field of harmony. Within the context of music theory, Janáček's ideas on the 'thickness' of harmonic material first appeared in his study O skladbě souzvukův a jejich spojův (On the Construction of Chords and their Connections) in 1896. The term became fully developed and frequently used in his Úplná nauka o harmonii (The Complete Harmony Theory) in 1920. The origin and the use of the term by Janáček can be documented in connection with his experience with and discoveries from traditional folk music.

Ethnic music, pop music, world music. Ethnomusicology between professional terminology and marketing tags
Kratochvíl, Matěj
This text deals with the relations among the spheres of folk or ethnic music, popular music and so-called world music at a time when the borderlines between individual spheres are often not sharp. In practice, the term "world music" is used with different meanings and it covers big quantity of diverse music. Because of this, this term is applicable as a marketing tag identifying the records for possible customers; it is, however, unsuitable if it is to serve as a basis for the discussion about musics of different cultures and their transformation in today’s world
