Fantasie was firstly comprised of free improvisatory type and multi-section structure. In the 19th century, the formal structure of sonata and character pieces were combined into the Fantasie. In the process of its evolution, the introduction, slow mid-section, and improvisatory elements which Fantasie includes always play important roles. However, Fantasie varied with different characteristics of individual composers. This paper focuses on three works titled ¡§Fantasy¡¨ from Chopin. It includes five chapters: the first chapter is the introduction. The second chapter is about the historical development of Fantasie in keyboard works. In the third chapter to the fifth chapter Chopin¡¦s Fantaisie-Impromptu Op. 66, Fantasie Op. 49, and Polonaise-Fantaisie Op. 61, and fantastic features of Chopin will be discussed in details.

Jan Václav Hugo Voříšek (1791 – 1825) a une importance réelle dans l'histoire de la musique notamment pour avoir fondé le genre de l'impromptu, et sa musique, au style résolument visionnaire en plusieurs points, est de qualité. Elle peut de plus séduire le public d'aujourd'hui pourvu qu'on la joue bien. La présente thèse souhaite combler trois lacunes : un travail dans le domaine de la thèorie de l’interprétation, une édition critique commentée, et la réalisation d’un travail de recherche appliquée – l’enregistrement intégral sur un instrument approprié. Le texte propose la recherche sur l’interprétation de la musique ancienne aujourd’hui. Le premier chapitre présente la vie du compositeur et son développement artistique. Le deuxième chapitre est consacré à des questions plus générales d’interprétation, illustrées par la suite sur les œuvres de Voříšek. Les problèmes concrets d’interprétation sont vus plus en détail dans le troisième chapitre, où les œuvres de Voříšek sont examinées. La thèse est complétée par deux annexes pratiques. La première propose l‘esquisse des changements nécessaires dans l’édition moderne de la partie la moins traitée auparavant, les Rapsodies op. 1. La deuxième est un enregistrement sonore des œuvres de Voříšek, qui présente l’interprétation basée sur l’étude de sources musicales et de la pratique de l’époque, sur l’instrument proche du temps de la naissance des œuvres joués. / Jan Václav Hugo Voříšek (1791-1825) has an indispensable role in the music history: being the creator of the genre impromptu, his visionary musical style has many qualities. His music has a great potential to speak to nowaday´s public, if well interpreted. This thesis wishes to fill three gaps in the existing treatment of the subject: the research in the field of the theory of interpretation, the comented critical edition and the work of the applied research – a complete recording on an instrument suitable to the repertoire. The text offers the results of the research and shows the possibilities of today´s interpretation of early music. First chapter treats composer´s life and artistic developpement, the second chapter orientates on general period interpretation and the third chapter analyses Voříšek´s solo piano music. Two practical annexes complete the thesis. One of them is the suggestion of changes in the existing edition, in order to fulfill the needs of the historically informed interpretation. The other one, the recording shows an interpretation based on a study of the musical sources and of the period practise, on an instrument close to the time of the genesis of the works performed. The aim was to apply the results of the theoretical research presented in the second and the third chapter of this thesis in the interpretation.

The dissertation proposes a Community Creativity Facility in the Cultural Precinct in the lower Central Business District (CBD) of Pretoria. The client, Tshwane Leadership Foundation (TLF) and its affiliate, the School of Creative Arts (SCA), require a facility that caters for the visual arts within Pretoria’s city centre that uplifts its users on a socio-economic level. Furthermore, an arts facility in the lower CBD is absent and can contribute to inner-city activation. The dissertation investigates how a relationship can be established between the visual arts and Pretoria’s inner city community and city users. The building intends on fostering an arts appreciation and relationship through exposure, education and skills development. It seeks to educate people on the relevance and contribution of art. This will be investigated by analysing the role that art museums and galleries currently hold - the perceptions attached to them. The theory and the concept, which encourage active participation and interactivity, will inform the design of the building. The urban framework, the site analysis and the precedent studies also inform the dissertation. The design is primarily form-driven, as it was realised that the ground floor – the public realm – is the most important drawcard in exposing people to art. Thus, the spatial manipulation of the ground floor resulted in a public square that encourages exposure to art, accidental/impromptu encounters and informal activities to occur. The treatment of surface planes was also approached to allow for visual and physical connections. Commercial, educational and leisure programs were combined into a single building as a mixed-use building can further encourage exposure to art. As the building intends on facilitating creativity and creating spaces that are inclusive for its users, the design development explored this extensively through hand drawings, 3D modeling, concept models and computer generated drawings.

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / A presente pesquisa objetivou investigar a potencialidade pedagÃgica do improviso cÃnico- -musical como experiÃncia artÃstica no Ãmbito escolar a partir da percepÃÃo dos sujeitos participantes do processo, entendendo que esse saber pode trazer contribuiÃÃes para uma prÃtica pedagÃgica significativa no que se refere ao ensino e aprendizagem de arte no ensino mÃdio. O trabalho teve como referÃncia os estudos sobre experiÃncia formativa de Jorge Larrosa (2002, 2011, 2015), bem como se apoiou nas propostas de improvisaÃÃo de Augusto Boal (2010, 2012) e Hans-Joachim Koellreutter (1997). O contexto da pesquisa de campo foram as aulas de arte da 1 sÃrie do ensino mÃdio de uma escola estadual do CearÃ, bem como os encontros com um grupo formado com alunos de outras sÃries, turmas e turnos da mesma escola. O mÃtodo utilizado foi a pesquisa-aÃÃo, tendo como principais instrumentos de coleta de dados a entrevista semiestruturada e gravaÃÃes audiovisuais dos encontros. A partir da interpretaÃÃo do discurso dos sujeitos foram encontradas trÃs categorias para anÃlise: abertura do currÃculo: liberdade para expressar-se criativamente; expressÃo da subjetividade e alteridade na formaÃÃo artÃstica; e motivaÃÃo. Constatou-se que o improviso cÃnico-musical revelou mÃltiplas potencialidades pedagÃgicas, dentre as principais: apropriaÃÃo do conhecimento de forma integral a partir da unificaÃÃo das linguagens musical e cÃnica; estÃmulo a novas percepÃÃes da realidade e à criatividade; e motivaÃÃo para o aprendizado proporcionado pelo aspecto lÃdico dos jogos. / This research aimed to investigate the pedagogical potential of improvisation cÃnico- -musical as artistic experience in schools from the perception of the subjects participating in the process, understanding that this knowledge can bring contributions to a significant pedagogical practice in relation to teaching and learning art in high school. The work had as reference studies on formative experience of Jorge Larrosa (2002, 2011, 2015) and was based on improvisation proposals Augusto Boal (2010, 2012) and Hans-Joachim Koellreutter (1997). The field research context were the art classes of the 1st year of high school of a state school of CearÃ, as well as meetings with a group formed with students from other series, classes and shifts the same school. The method used was action research, the main instruments of semi-structured interview data collection and audiovisual recordings of the meetings. From the interpretation of the subjects discourse we found three categories for analysis: Opening of the curriculum: freedom to express themselves creatively; expression of subjectivity and otherness in artistic training; and motivation. It was found that the scenic-musical improvisation revealed multiple pedagogical potential, among the main ones: appropriation of knowledge in full from the unification of musical and scenic languages; encouraging new perceptions of reality and creativity; and motivation for learning provided by the playful aspect of the games.

This thesis addresses the issue of the subjective perception of the speaker's speed during simultaneous interpretation. The theoretical grounding of the thesis is based on Karla Déjean Le Féal's doctoral thesis (1978), which first introduced the notion of subjective speed, whereby two speeches of equal objective speed (as measured in syllables/min.) are perceived as having different speeds. The conclusions of Déjean Le Féal's thesis demonstrate that interpreters usually experience a faster subjective speed when interpreting speeches which were prewritten and then read aloud by the speaker. Impromptu speeches are usually perceived as being slower than read speeches. Aside from the above-mentioned theory of subjective speed, the theoretical section of this thesis analyzes various approaches to measuring speech speed, the relation between objective speed and simultaneous interpreting, the determinants of speech speed and prosodic features influencing the subjective perception of speed. The empirical section of this thesis consists of an experiment which aims to verify Déjean Le Féal's conclusions using French-Czech material. The methodology of the experiment partially replicates the method used by Aneta Mandysová in her master's thesis (2011), which is focused on German-Czech material. The method used...

Die Stegreifreihe soll den Studierenden eine Entwurfsaufgabe geben, welche in begrenzter Zeit mit Hilfe von Skizzen, Plänen und Konzeptmodellen ausgearbeitet werden soll. Diese Form des Entwurfstrainings soll kreative und unkonventionelle Lösungsansätze zu einer gegebenen räumlichen Situation fördern. Die Stegreifreihe bietet eine praxisorientierte Ergänzung zum ARCH4HEALTH Student Research Lab. In diesem Jahr bezog sich der Stegreifentwurf auf die Klinik für Psychiatrie und Psychotherapie des Städtischen Klinikums Dresden am Standort Weißer Hirsch. Mittels eigener Entwürfe entwickelten die Studierenden architektonische Idee für den Eingangsbereich oder den Essensraum der Akutpsychiatrie Station P1. Die Stegreifreihe umfasste drei Phasen. Zuerst entwickelten die Studierenden ihre erste Idee für den Entwurf. Dieser wurde anhand von Personas der unterschiedlichen Nutzergruppen im Rahmen einer Workshopsituation reflektiert. Das dabei erhaltene Feedback und Anregungen aus Nutzerperspektive wurde in der finalen Phase in die Entwürfe eingearbeitet. Folgend werden die Entwürfe präsentiert. [... aus dem Text]
