Jarkovská, Jana ; KOUTNÍK, Štěpán (advisor) ; Kunt, Václav (referee)
This dissertation deals with flute works by the Czech composer Jiří Teml. It takes into account the complete list including the information about their premieres and recordings. The opening chapter offers an insight into the composer‘s biography connected with his complete works‘ overview.
The crucial section of the text is dedicated to the extramusical inspiration of Jiří Teml and its impact on the interpretative approach to his music. Jiří Teml likes the non-musical fields of art and he often reflects them in his own creative process. The Titles of a great number of his compositions (Commedia dell’arte, Pantomime, Hommage à Michelangelo, Kafka…) find their origin from the domain of fine arts, theatre or literature. The composer himself admits that the extramusical content is crucial for him and his art. The author of this text asks whether and how this phenomenon can influence the interpretation of Teml‘s music. This dissertation is methodologically based on the personal interviews of the author with the composer Jiří Teml and on her personal artistic experience.
