Carl Nielsen´s late style in works for flute
Pingitzer, Simona ; VÁLEK, Jiří (advisor) ; KVĚCH, Otomar (referee)
Carl Nielsen was the greatest Denmark´s composer who lived from 1865 to 1931. The thesis mentions the development of Nielsen´s composition style beginning with his early music and ending with his mature years of composing. All works are compared comprehensively. In his early years, there is a domination of the elements typical for romantic lyricism, but later on, his composition technique becomes influenced by the progressive styles of the 20th century. The thesis is focused on the composer´s late music, because most of his flute works were written during his mature years. The compositions analysed in detail are following: orchestral work Pan and Syrinx, op.49, a piece for flute solo from the incidental music Aladdin, op.34, three pieces from the incidental music Moderen, op.41, Wind Quintet, op.43, Concerto for Flute and Orchestra, six symphonies and Rhapsody Overture: An Imaginary Trip to the Faroe Islands . On one hand, the analysis of each work is accentuated, but on the other hand, the historical events and facts from Nielsen´s life which affected his compositions are pointed out.
