Studie Marie Škarpové se zabývá literárními prameny a okruhy duchovních písní, které byly inspirací pro repertoár kancionálu "Jesličky, staré a nové písničky", jehož autorem byl přední český barokní básník a duchovní Fridrich Bridelius., This study deals with that portion of the repertoire of the Czech Advent and Christmas songbook Jesličky (Prague, 1658) by Fridrich Bridelius, which newly appeared in Czech hymnography thanks to this song book, and it summarizes the various results of the search for textual sources from other languages for these “new” songs in Jesličky. It points out their ties to contemporary German written hymnography (of both German and Bohemian provenience) and to Latin hymnography, i.e. to contemporary Latin songs. The text is thus not only a contribution towards discovering the ways that Czech hymnographers of the 17th century became familiar with the new, i.e. baroque, poetic language, but also, above all, an attempt to stimulate further hymnological research on baroque hymnographic works in the early modern history of Central Europe and the interconnections and relationships between them., Marie Škarpová., Rubrika: Studie, and České resumé na s. 397, anglický abstrakt na s. 377.
Studie Evy Myslivcové se zabývá korespondencí mezi hudebním skladatelem Antonínem Dvořákem a jeho blízkým přítelem Aloisem Göblem., This article introduces newly found photocopies of two letters from Antonín Dvořák to Alois Göbl with heretofore unknown and unpublished contents (newly discovered facts about Dvořák’s life and about period reception of his masterpieces – e.g. the Symphony No. 9 in E Minor “From the New World”, op. 95, and the Cello Concerto in B Minor, op. 104) and places them within the context of Dvořák’s correspondence addressed to his friend Göbl in Sychrov that has already been published in several different editions., Eva Myslivcová., Rubrika: Studie, and Německé resumé na s. 299, anglický abstrakt na s. 289.
The two hundred and twenty-fifth anniversary of the Don Giovanni premiere, in 1787, and the one hundred and seventy-fifth anniversary of the foundation, in 1837, of Pragues Mozart Denkmal, the first ever Mozart Memorial Collection, housed from then until now in Pragues Klementinum, offer the opportunity to take a look at Mozarts standing in the early 19th century in Bohemia through the eyes of press and writing on music of the time (August Wilhelm Ambros, Wenzel Johann Tomaschek, Joseph Proksch, Ed. Murelli), as well as period arrangements of his works and the ways of their interpretation., Michaela Freemanová., Obsahuje seznam literatury, and České resumé na s. 102.

Studie Petry Kolátorové se zabývá osobností hobojisty Arnošta (Ernsta) Königa (1838-1915), významného hudebníka pražského hudebního života druhé poloviny 19. století., This contribution maps the activity of Arnošt König (1838–1915), an oboist of German origin, primarily in Prague’s musical life at the time. During the years 1870–1913, A. König was the professor of oboe at the Prague Conservatory, and from 1876 he was an oboist at the Prague Provisional Theatre and then at the National Theatre. Reviews and articles from the period show what an exceptional musician he was, as he earned recognition even beyond Bohemia. Many mentions praising him in the press have been preserved in connection with the difficulty for performers of Dvořák’s Serenade in D Minor, op. 44, in which A. König excelled repeatedly. It can be documented at least twice from Dvořák’s extant correspondence that performances elsewhere of the Serenade were cancelled because of its difficulty. Together with the aforementioned reviews, this fact shows that in Prague Antonín Dvořák (and others) had exceptional conditions for musical performances., Petra Kolátorová., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 287, anglický abstrakt 267.
Studie Elišky Baťové se zabývá dosud nepříliš hodnocenou koncepcí liturgického roku v duchovních písních od biskupa Jednoty bratrské a teologa Jana Augusty., The goal of the present study is to bring together the questions of hymnological research with the history of the liturgy and homiletics. In the integrated liturgical conception of Jan Augusta as it is known to us thanks to two Viennese manuscripts and a newly processed, unique printed document from the Unity of the Brethren church, these areas cannot be separated, since they mutually support each other to create a whole. The author has therefore dedicated herself to the broader context of the creating of a new arrangement of Biblical readings and songs in the Unity of the Brethren church, regarding which there were disputes from its inception in 1545 until the deaths of Jan Blahoslav and of Jan Augusta in 1572., Eliška Baťová., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 43, anglický abstrakt 33.
Discantus and Altus part-books (sign. NM-CMH AZ 84) were made by the later binding of component parts consisting of four prints and five manuscripts from the 1540s through about the 1590s. For the first time, the professional community can familiarize itself with their external description and contents. Those contents consist predominantly of compositions intended for Vespers (Magnificat settings and hymns). Special attention is paid to two Magnificat settings Bohemian Christmas and Easter songs in the discant part. For each of the twelve songs, the oldest known incidences of their melody and text were identified, and transcriptions of the songs are also included. The discant part-book AZ 84 represents an indispensable source for the genesis of some of the songs (Všem věc divná, neslýchaná [To All Something Strange, Unheard-Of], Hory se zelenají [The Hills Turn Green], Plešíc již všecko stvoření [All Creation Now Rejoicing], Šalomúnovy postele šedesáte ostříhalo [Sixty Men around Solomons Bed]), Dagmar Štefancová., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 22.
