Design and realization of specialized milling machine
Janoštík, Milan ; Kratochvíl, Ctirad (referee) ; Krejsa, Jiří (advisor)
ABSTRACT This bachelor’s thesis deal with the design and building of prototype of specialized milling machine for production of reeds used in woodwind instruments, especially for bassoons and double bassoons. The first part is focused on the design itself, including the milling type, motor selection, necessary computations, etc, necessary for virtual model design. The prototype of specialized milling machine, replacing manual reeds production represents the main outcome of this work. The machine will be used by musicians of Bohuslav Martinů Philharmonic Orchestra in Zlín.

Comparison of spectrum and directional dharacteristics of double reed instruments
Cočev, Jiří ; Buzzi, Mario (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
The Bachelor's thesis deals with analysis of the sound signals of double reed wind musical instruments. Research focuses mainly on properties of the reed and how properties of reed affects the overall sound of the instrument. For the description of the signals were used FFT, LPC, Autocorrelation and Cepstral analysis. In conclusion, the thesis offers possible future direction for the experimental research of double reed wind musical instruments.

Krátká, Tereza ; SEIDL, Jiří (advisor) ; HERMAN, František (referee)
The title of my diploma thesis is Bassoon in chamber music of Bohuslav Martinů. The thesis is mapping Bohuslav Martinů's chamber work for the bassoon, namely the circumstances of the creation of compositions, premieres or recordings. Another point of study is the selection of several interpretatively interesting parts of bassoon excerpts and their assessment from an interpreter point of view. In the first chapter I deal with the personality of Bohuslav Martinů in particular periods of his life with references to the most important compositions and professional influences. In the next chapter there is a catalog of chamber works for the bassoon of Bohuslav Martinů with informations on the origin and premieres of the compositions. There are also sheet music examples of interesting parts in the excerpts of the bassoon and their interpretative specifics.

Nováková, Michaela ; SEIDL, Jiří (advisor) ; HERMAN, František (referee)
The aim of this work is to provide a satisfactory additional material for advanced bassoon students. There is not enough time left during the practical lessons to tell interesting information that might be even helpful for the student. The name of the theses is The Introduction to the History, Theory and Issues of Bassoon Performance. The subject matter of this paper focuses on the theoretical findings; it also covers information beneficial for the practice.
First of all, the basic facts about the bassoon and related instruments are mentioned. The other chapters deal with the historical development of double reed woodwind instruments, the manufacturing process of a bassoon and contrabassoon, and there is a summary of important terms. Furthermore, information about proper breathing and more practical advice and tips are included. A part of this paper is also dedicated to remarkable authors and interpreters of bassoon music.
