The interpretive tradition and analysis of the “Pan” by Vítězslav Novák
Brizhaneva, Tatiana ; BILINSKÁ, Kvitoslava (advisor) ; MALÝ, František (referee)
The purpose of this thesis is a comprehensive performing analysis of the program Tone Poem “Pan” op. 43 by Vítězslav Novák. This composition represents one of the pearls of the Czech piano repertoire, but very few pianists included it in their concert programs because of the duration and technical difficulties. However, thanks to its originality, richness of the harmonic and melodic resources and quality of the detailes, the piano music of Vítězslav Novák is worth to be performed at concert venues much more frequently. Using for her studies czech information sources mostly, such as monographs, sets of articles about Novák, Novák’s biographic notes, the author has tried to aggregate data on the idea of “Pan”, the composition process and to describe the outstanding performers of this unique cycle. Recordings made by František Maxián, František Rauch, Martin Vojtíšek, Margaret Fingerhut and Slovak Filharmonic Orchestra with Zdeněk Bílek have served as valuable materials for the comparative analysis of different interpretations of the piece. The author’s own observations that were made during her studying and performing the piece as well as a theoretical analysis are included.
