Josef Bohuslav Foerster: Erotikon (a Song Cycle)
Mixová, Anežka ; Gabrielová, Jarmila (advisor) ; Pudlák, Miroslav (referee)
The presented bachelor thesis deals with personality of Josef Bohuslav Foerster as a songwriter with special regard to the composition of song cycles from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The main aim of the author is a musical-textual analysis of the song cycle Erotikon op. 23 from the years 1894 - 1897 and the frame insertion of this opus into the contemporary cultural-historical context. Special attention is paid to the original poetry of Foerster's songs, the issue of translation, and shifts in prosody when composing a rhythmic text to music. The analysis also focuses on the interpretation of semantic emphases arising from setting the text to music. Keywords: Josef Bohuslav Foerster, song output, song cycle, Hamburg, description, analysis, word-music relation, poets, original poetry
