Musical and pianistic contribution of the sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti
Vrtiška, Karel ; KASÍK, Martin (advisor) ; LEICHNER, Emil (referee)
The goal of the work is to amplify the volume of respectable academic work dedicated to the pieces and life of Domenico Scarlatti which is not, even nowadays, much abundant in the Czech language. The author's effort was also to help other interpreters of Scarlatti's sonatas, who might be reading this work in the future, to familiarize with pieces of knowledge on the sonatas which has not been widely known and to get valuable and inspirational stimuli that may help them when practising.
The work is focused on the form of the sonatas and on solution of technical difficulties, which, considering the period of their origin, are much unprecedented. It were these analyses that help the author elucidate the thematic field that can be also found in the title of the work - musical and pianistic contribution of the sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti.

Chapter 2 is about the methodics that Chopin himself created and that seems to be essential when interpreting this Sonata. In Chapter 3 I compare three different editions of the Sonata and based on findings from previous chapters I ponder how it is best to perform this Sonata.

Tichá, Pavla ; KRAJNÝ, Boris (advisor) ; Bartoš, Jan (referee)
Piano work is one of the main pillars of composer work of Sergei Prokofiev. There is reflected his close relationship to the piano as an instrument with broad expressive and technical possibilities, with a great tradition, and his rich experience of the artist, who had understanding in great detail the problems of piano playing and its expressive and technical possibilities. All that is connecting with a distinctive musical style and genuine compositional inventiveness. Prokofiev´a work includes a whole range of genres areas: ballet, opera, symphony, and above all - a large area of piano music. Prokofiev compositional style is manifested by five basic lines: innovative, classical, lyrical, toccata, grotesque. All go through his whole work, but their share is changing in different periods and different songs. Development and transformation of his style during his life were affected by artistic and social factors, the important role played his decision to stay abroad for a longer time and then to return to Russia again. One of the top of Prokofiev´a piano works, Seventh Piano Sonata, reflects all these facts. There are manifested all his style lines. It is a work of extraordinary conceptually rich. The key to its convincing interpretation is understanding of its score and the author´s intent in light of all the above. The aim of this thesis is to show all these influences and context and to highlight their importance for a deeper understanding of the work.
