European specifics of the art of percussion instruments: Basics of natural playing
Zhdanovich, Anton ; MIKOLÁŠEK, Daniel (advisor) ; Holub, Petr (referee)
This work is a summary of the information and knowledge about the basics that make up the present tradition of playing percussion instruments in Europe (predominantly Western). Its main purpose is to support the development of percussion instruments in Czech Republic, especially in schools, where the playing level is in the development stage and needs to be supported from other sources. During my Master's study at HAMU (2014-2017), I took part in many of international events in this field, which were focused on the development of young musicians of my generation on musical, technical, mental and aesthetic side. The obtained information by feedbacks and comments from leading teachers and performers in the field is the absolute basis for this work. Awareness of the principles and basics that will be written here requires a presence of certain musical and life experiences, so this work is intended for the age category from the students of secondary vocational schools and above.

The development of interpretational demands on Czech composers works for percussion instruments from the 1960s to the present
Veselý, Šimon ; MIKOLÁŠEK, Daniel (advisor) ; BARTOŇ, Hanuš (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the growing tendency of composers of Czech artificial music from the 1960s to the present to discover new technical possibilities of percussion instruments and then apply them to the musical process. The work contains several notes about the historical re-evaluation of the percussion instruments in the hands of the composers, and the emancipation of the percussion instruments in the work of Czech composers. The work contains several theoretical and interpretative analyzes, namely the analysis of works by Miloslav Kabeláč, Marek Kopelent and Daniel Chudovský. The aim of the work is to point out the increasing demands for interpretation of contemporary music for percussion instruments, but also the resonant plurality and openness of various composing personalities of the selected time period.

Timpani technique by Fred D. Hinger
Zhdanovich, Anton ; MIKOLÁŠEK, Daniel (advisor) ; Holub, Petr (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on contemporary problems of primarily orchestral timpani playing. In this thesis, I tried to explain, why a timpani player is often unable to reach the desired quality of sound and tone of the instrument, which make it impossible to reach the right musical character in the context of that particular musical piece.
The goal of this work is to enrich the Czech school of timpani playing and to contribute to the growth of interpretation abilities of beginning and intermediate timpani players. Another goal is to show a different tradition of kettledrum playing with all its details.
I focused on the practical side of the instrument playing and I describe the methods and the process of solving technical and musical problems of interpreters in this paper.
The character of this thesis is completely practical and focuses on the description of one of the many other world traditions of timpani playing.
