Inom musikvärlden såsom i näringslivet är andelen kvinnor mycket liten högt uppe i hierarkierna. Ingen av de större konserthusen i världen leds eller har letts av en kvinnlig dirigent. Syftet med studien är att undersöka, beskriva och analysera bilden av ledarskap inom konstmusiken utifrån ett könsteoretiskt perspektiv. Studien är baserad på intervjuer med orkestermusiker, och analysen av materialet är inspirerad av reflexiv metod. Resultatet är i samklang med tidigare forskning som har visat att bilden av ledaren är bilden av en man. Det är dirigenten som står för bilden av ledaren, även om tonsättaren formellt står över dirigenten. En kvinna som dirigerar måste balansera mellan den förväntade kvinnlighet hon skall uppvisa och den manlighet dirigering kräver. Trots detta är hon fel för sin uppgift eftersom kvinnans kroppsspråk inte anses kunna manifestera musikernas inre bild av en dirigent.

Embriões somáticos de Ocotea catharinensis foram utilizados como modelo para a investigação da via biossintética para a formação de neolignanas com esqueleto benzofurânico, através do uso de precursores marcados com 13C e análise dos produtos por RMN de 13C. Isotopômeros de L-[13C]-fenilalanina administrados aos embriões, foram incorporados às neolignanas 5\'-metoxiporosina e armenina B . Entre os precursores intermediários, o acetato de [8-13C]-coniferila, preparado a partir da condensação de Knoevenagel seguido de várias etapas, foi incorporado na neolignana 5\'-metoxiporosina. No ensaio de bioconversão utilizando frações proteicas das culturas dos embriões de O. catharinensis, o acetato de coniferila foi convertido em isoeugenol que, junto com o eugenol, seriam os precursores hipotéticos para a formação dessas neolignanas. A análise filogenética de diversas espécies de Lauraceae indicou a proximidade entre espécies do gênero Ocotea, produzindo como principais metabólitos lignanas e neolignanas. Foi obtida a seqüência parcial do gene de proteína dirigente em O. catharinensis e O. macrophylla e a análise filogenética baseada na homologia das seqüências de proteína dirigente de Ocotea e de espécies de diferentes gêneros, indicaram um clado distinto formado para espécies de Ocotea. Estes dados dão suporte para a proposta de que neolignanas di-hidrobenzofurânicas seriam oriundas do acoplamento oxidativo entre unidades de E-isoeugenol e 5-metóxi-eugenol, com possível participação de proteína dirigente na regio- e estereoespecificidade das reações de dimerização . Baseando-se nestes resultados foi possível propor algumas etapas envolvidas na biossíntese de neolignanas. / Somatic embryos of Ocotea catharinensis were used as model to investigate the biosynthetic pathway of benzofuran neolignans formation by means of feeding precursors followed by analysis with 13C NMR. Isotopomers of L-[13C]-phenylalanine were administered to embryos and incorporated into di-hydrobenzofuran neolignans. Among the intermediate precursors, [8-13C]-coniferyl acetate, prepared by Knoevenagel and several steps, was incorporated in the neolignan 5\'-methoxyporosin. The studies of bioconversion using protein fraction obtained from the embryogenic cultures, the precursor coniferyl acetate was converted into isoeugenol, which together eugenol, is one of the putative precursors to the neolignans formation. Phylogenetic analysis of several species of Lauraceae indicated the proximity of Ocotea species producing lignans and neolignans as the main metabolites. A partial sequence of the dirigent protein gene from O. catharinensis and O. macrophylla were obtained and the phylogenetic analysis based on homology of dirigent protein sequences from Ocotea and from different plant genus indicated a distinct clade formed by Ocotea species. These findings support the hypothesis that the dihydrobenzofuran neolignans would be derived from the oxidative coupling between E- isoeugenol and 5- methoxy-eugenol and the dirigent protein would be involved in the regio- and stereospecificity of the dimerization reactions. Thus, it was possible to suggest some of the steps involved in the biosynthesis of neolignans.

Am Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts herrschten in Slowenien (damals noch als Teil der österreich-ungarischen Monarchie) auf dem kulturellen Bereich sehr günstige Verhältnisse. Neben der dominierenden Literatur (mit Ivan Cankar, Oton Župančič, Dragotin Kette, Josip Murn) und der Malerei (mit Rihard Jakopič, Ivan Grohar, Matija Jama, Matej Sternen) blühte die Musik. Sie wurde besonders von der alten Philharmonischen Gesellschaft (gegründet 1794) sowie durch die im Jahre 1908 gegründete Slowenische Philharmonie repräsentiert, letztere mit ihrem ersten Dirigenten, dem Tschechen Václav Talich (1883–1961), der so wie Gustav Mahler (1860– 1911) mehr als 25 Jahre zuvor (1881/82) seine große Karriere in Ljubljana begonnen hatte.Als im Jahre 1910 Talich nach Leipzig zum weiteren Studium ging, kam als sein Nachfolger aus Budapest de rjunge Fritz Reiner nach Ljubljana.

1 Abstract The author of this work pays attention to Czech musical personality Jaroslav Kofroň who is known primarily as an educator and author of pedagogical literature: The textbook of harmony; The textbook of rhythm and intonation. The main objective is to bring the essential information about the artist's compositional activity that is not known, although it is very rich and deserves more attention. According to the information the works are identified with the year of their implementation and available materials that are stored in libraries or on the website. The partial aim is a comprehensive and acquaints the public with the whole range of Kofroň personality that we perceive as a performer, a conductor, a choirmaster and a painter. Main chapter provides an overview of the composer's instrumental formation that includes the creation of orchestral, brass, chamber music, solo concerts. A huge attention is focused on the creation of the song, which contains over 600 songs, edited or composed both for solo singing voices and choirs: male, female, children's and mixed. It also identified spiritual music, stage and production for children there. My work provides an analysis of song "Songs for the youngest" and the author's didactic notes Cycle pieces for horn and piano "Images", intended for children of...

This diploma thesis is based on the analysis of primary and secondary sources, including authentic memories of living witnesses. It focuses on important personalities of the musical life in the border region around the former Sudetenland, specifically on the life and work of selected composers, musicologists, teachers, choir masters , conductors, and active musicians working in the region below the Jestřebí Mountains - the area between Náchod and Trutnov, that is Červený Kostelec, Rtyně v Podkrkonoší, Malé Svatoňovice, Úpice, and Trutnov. These are personalities who contributed not only to the development of regional music, but also to the education of new talents, between the years of 1940 and 1980 of the 20th century (however, the work with its biographical character presents some overlaps to other eras, such as the pre-war era, the times of war, or the post-revolutionary era). In the presented text, individual biographies of selected musically-active individuals are reconstructed, during whose often difficult lives significant historical events (including social repressions) took place. There was often mutual cooperation between the personalities discussed in this work, and they often influenced each other. The profiles of the personalities are arranged alphabetically.

This master thesis introduces Jiří Pilát (4. 4. 1921 - 7. 6. 2007), a native of Posázaví. He had been concerned with music on a non-professional level all his life, especially with liturgical music. In order to carry on his interest he created a rich archive, mostly by searching and transcribing the score material. The work aims to show his life and work with regard to both his lifelong musical focus and local activity, and his conceivable influence on the broader cultural awareness. It is comprised from five main chapters: the life of Jiří Pilát, his heritage, a choir and an orchestra in Poříčí nad Sázavou, efforts to re- reveal the work of Jan Dismas Zelenka and draw attention to it; and the musical legacy of Jiří Pilát. Keywords: Jiří Pilát, choirmaster, conductor, Jan Dismas Zelenka, Poříčí nad Sázavou, Louňovice pod Blaníkem, liturgical music

A análise filogenética e reconstrução dos caracteres químicos em espécies de Piper indicou clados especializados na produção de ácidos benzoicos/cromenos, amidas e lignóides. Os perfis químicos das espécies foram determinados pela análise dos extratos brutos por RMN de 1H combinados com análise de componente principal (PCA). Destacou-se a ocorrência de lignanas dibenzilbutirolactônicas e furofurânicas no clado Macrostachys, enquanto que para Schilleria foi observado o acúmulo preferencial de fenilpropanóides, lignanas tetraidrofurânicas e benzofurânicas. Espécies de localidades distintas classificadas como Piper solmsianum apresentaram diferentes perfis químicos e características morfológicas. A análise da variabilidade química e genética por PCA e microssatélites, respectivamente, indicou a segregação das populações de acordo com o local de coleta e apontou o potencial para o uso conjunto das técnicas para distinguir os espécimens de P. solmsianum. As sequências dos genes acetiltransferase, propenilfenol sintase e proteína dirigente forneceram as primeiras informações sobre os genes envolvidos na biossíntese de lignanas/fenilpropanoides em P. solmsianum. / The phylogenetic analysis and reconstruction of chemical characters in Piper species distinguished clades specialized in the production of benzoic acids/chromenes, amides and lignoids. The chemical profiles of these species were determined by analysis of crude extracts by 1H NMR combined with principal component analysis (PCA). It is remarkable that lignans of dibenzylbutyrolactone and furofurans type occur in Macrostachys while Schilleria contains dimers of propenylphenols such as tetrahydrofurans lignans and benzofuran neolignans. Piper solmsianum specimens collected from distinct sites showed differences in their morphology and chemical profiles. The assessment of chemical and genetic variability by PCA and microsatellites, respectively, indicated the segregation of populations according to the sampling site and pointed out to the potential use for the combined approaches to distinguish P. solmsianum specimens. The sequences of the genes acetyltransferase, propenylphenol synthase and dirigent protein provided the first information about the genes involved in the biosynthesis of lignans/phenylpropanoids in P. solmsianum.
