This diploma paper deals with the genesis and history of trombone
departments at Czech faculties of music: Janáček Academy of Music Arts in

Rejdák, Jaroslav ; Rejlek, Vladimír (advisor) ; Rouček, Jaroslav (referee) ; Šedivý, Zdeněk (referee)
This thesis deals with musical instruments used during hunting from prehistory up to the present. Hunting musical instruments have accompanied the humankind since time immemorial and have changed a lot. From bony flutes and animal horns to olifants, and up to brasswind instruments which developed into contemporary instruments. In this thesis, I deal with the first mentions of hunting instruments in the literature which is devoted to hunting.
Gradually, the hunting musical instruments started to be made from metal and many kinds of hunting-horns arose. I also deal with so-called Hiefhorns which are not so known and were especially used for working with dogs.
In the final chapter of my thesis I deal with presently used instruments as well as with oddness of musical instruments used during hunting.
