Mikulášová, Ludmila ; Gabrielová, Jarmila (advisor) ; Freemanová, Michaela (referee) ; Kapsa, Václav (referee)
The aim of the dissertation is to create a monograph on the life and work of the Prague-based composer Johann Anton Koželuch (1738-1814). The first part follows the composer's journey through life and professional career, noting the background and the position that influenced his work and composition legacy. The conclusion of the first part is devoted to selected aspects of his work which is compared and contrasted with the period musical context. The second part of the dissertation contains a thematic catalogue of compositions by Johann Anton Koželuch. On the basis of musicological research it is incontestable that Johann Anton Koželuch ranks among the most important personalities of Bohemian musical life in the second half of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century and his legacy goes beyond the borders of this country. The dissertation points towards new findings about music history not only in Bohemia, but also across Central Europe.

Music collections of the Brothers Hospitallers in the Bohemia Lands
Freemanová, Michaela ; Gabrielová, Jarmila (advisor) ; Sehnal, Jiří (referee) ; Perutková, Jana (referee)
The 'provincia germanica' of the Order of the Brothers Hospitallers was probably founded in 1616. In the early 1770s it covered almost the whole of Central Europe. Today's Bohemian province consists of eight monasteries (Prague, Nové Město nad Metují, Kuks, Brno, Prostějov, Valtice, Letovice and Vizovice). This book deals with their history, their music life and their surviving music collections from Prague, Nové Město nad Metují, Kuks (the Kuks collection catalogue was published independently in 1998), Prostějov, Brno and Valtice (the Letovice and Vizovice collections are not extant). They are quite a rarity: it seems that, apart from the small collections in Graz and Vienna, and the until now inaccessible Wroclaw (Breslau) collection, no other such collections survived anywhere else in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. Apart from Kuks, most of the Czech and Moravian Order music collections are fragmentary. Fragmentary also are the Order documents. Even so it is possible to follow the rise and fall of the music activities of the Brothers Hospitallers, whose original and principal mission was to care for the helpless, aged and the sick. Music became integral part of the Order members' general education inside the "provincia germanica" since 1718; the musicians named in the catalogues of the Order...

Reicha's conception of the counterpoint in the context of this music theoretical discipline
Havlíček, Vít ; HAVLÍK, Jaromír (advisor) ; Freemanová, Michaela (referee)
The subject of this dissertation is the conception of the counterpoint by Antonín Rejcha. Rejcha was working on his conception systematically all of his life and he defined it in his two treatises: Ueber das neue Fugensystem and in several parts of Traité de haute composition musicale. In this dissertation, i'm focusing on the second treatise. Besides of detailed commentary of Rejcha's thoughts, i'm trying to put them in the context of his predecessors, contemporaries and succesors, by which i'm reflecting importance of Rejcha's ideas in the field of counterpoint.
