Ballet music of Leopold Koželuh
Stratilová Urválková, Eva ; GREMLICOVÁ, Dorota (advisor) ; REITTEREROVÁ, Vlasta (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the ballet music of Leopold Koželuh, particularly with heroic ballet in five acts La ritrovata Figlia di Ottone II. The ballet was premiered on the 24th February 1794 at Kärntnerthor-Theater, Vienna. Copies of this ballet and prints are still widespread in many libraries in Europe. Based on the libretto and print of the complete ballet piano version the approximate reconstruction was made according to Koželuh music. The analysis revealed a significant source of musical drama ballet music. The historical background of the libretto was also explored. It revealed that the story is largely based on real characters, but a fictional storyline. The only currently known source (Ayrenoff 1794) tells us some information about the form of a stage version of the Vienna ballet. Less attention is paid to other Koželuh?s ballet, such as Telemach auf der Insel der Kalypso (1807), heroic ballet in three acts.
