Ruggiero Ricci
Vilímec, Libor ; Hůla, Pavel (advisor) ; Kotmel, Bohumil (referee) ; Čepický, Leoš (referee)
Violin and violin playing have actually been existing only a few centuries. From a historical standpoint it is a very short time, yet extremely rich in a number of personalities, events and trends. When passing through the history of vilolin playing it would be interesting to stop at a number of important milestones. The overall development has been shaped by prominent personalities, who impressed to timeless memories of this instrument, their own contibution. In this way, thr most important violinists influenced the instrumental and expressive interpretation from a technical point of view. Some of them influenced, enriched or changed it even in a giute complex way.As a topic of my bachelor work I chose an essay on one of these outstanding personalities, a violinist Ruggiero Ricci. His artistic activity was not limited to concerts. Especially later he used stage experience to teaching and publishing activities. That´s why after a brief introduction, resume, and the chapter on the art of violin, I insert a chapter on Ruggiero Ricci´s pedagogical and methodological viewpoints. I had an opportunity to recognize it as his student at the International Music Academy in Pilsen. After the final summary I attach also a brief review of his most important recordings and a list of literature, as well as some interesting facts from my personal contact with this distinctive artistic personality.

Ferdinand Laub - The Life and the Work
Polášek, Matěj ; Snítil, Václav (advisor) ; Matoušek, Bohuslav (referee) ; Kotmel, Bohumil (referee)
The aim of the master thesis Ferdinand Laub - Life and Work is to offer comprehensive but not exhaustive facts about a practically forgotten Czech violinist, conductor and composer F. Laub. The text presents a summary of available data and some revisions because the last biography was published in 1951. The most extensive part of the work includes biographical data of the violinist and his artistic relevance which is generally undervalued. Attention is also paid to compositions that are available in a small number only. His composing style is demonstrated on his best known piece - Polonaise, op. 7. The text also contains chapters about Laub's ascendants at the Prague Conservatory. The thesis is finished with personal evaluation of Ferdinand Laub in the context of the Czech musical culture.

Valentová, Helena ; Pazdera, Jindřich (advisor) ; Pazdera, Jindřich (advisor) ; Hůla, Pavel (referee) ; Kotmel, Bohumil (referee)
This thesis deals one of the great figures in Romantic music in the 19th century César Franck, as a composer, organist and music teacher, too. To the significant part belongs Franck´s chamber music which I apply myself to in detail. That is particulary piano trio in F sharp minor, piano trio in B sharp minor, piano quitent in F minor, string quartet in d minor and certainly sonata for violin and piano A major. I mention also the only symphony of Franck in D minor considering numerous common features with his chamber music. We can find here also composerś youth when he was a child prodigy, his friendship with-known personalities ( as F.Liszt) and last but not least his mature period, when he composed his main work. I have to bring out that his works were some of the finest organ pieces to come from France in over a century, and laid the groundwork for the French symphonic organ style. We also get to know that as an organist he was particulary noted for his skill in improvisation, and is considered by many the greatest composer of organ music after J.S.Bachś successor
