This thesis is focused on perceptual and compositional aspects of soundscape art in the 40-year tradition of acoustic ecology. From the long history of acoustic ecology I selected important community, institutional worldwide and Czech projects. My main focus is to bring the keywords of acoustic ecology and soundscape into Czech theory. I use two points of view for the study of soundscape: 1. soundwalk / listening walk - specific way of listening to the acoustic space in the form of a soundwalk or listening walk 2. analysis of sound composition - the analysis is focused on traditional composition approaches to the study of sound compositions The first approach is active listening ? the psychology of listening that R. M. Schafer uses for interaction with our surroundings. The second approach fo-cuses on looking for traditional composing approaches in the analysis of sound compositions "Winter Diary" (R. M. Schafer) and "Un altro ferragosto" (A. Curran). The thesis is also narrowly focused on autobiographical reflection, which provides a link to both of the examined approaches. This is a pilgrimage to the city of Santiago de Compostela. The pilgrimage gave rise to the soundscape composition Ultreia: El diario del peregrino / The Pilgrim's Diary itself. The objective of the analysis is to give an answer to the following question: In what way has the tradition of acoustic ecology and R. M. Schafer?s way of thinking, influenced approaches / thinking of composers in the field of sound composition?

In this work I will particularly withg the 1st part of Melodic etudes op. 36 by Jacques Féréol Mazas. The initial chapters are devoted to his predecessors - the French violin school, then the life and work of the author.Next chapter is devoted to how should be technically equipped a pupil who comes to play these etudes, including several exercises and recommended technical material. The basis of this work is a general description of particular etudes in point of wiew aspects of violin techniques, such as bow splitting, ways of implementation of individual bow movement, string crossing, themobolity of the fingers of the left hand, shifting, phrasing, accentuation, dynamic, melodic ornaments, vibrato and so on., with the recommended training of more difficult parts.

Dance gymnastics is a special teaching subject, taught at dance conservatories which serves for preparation of all dance techniques. It is an essential preparation technique, which increases pupil´s physical dispositions and moving versatility and develops his artistic personality. It uses the natural movement possibilities of human body. In the thesis, I firstly try to introduce to the current state of dance gymnastics, focusing on its importance and approaches. I also specify relations to other techniques, by which dance gymnastics should be influenced. In the next part, I propose how to enrich dance gymnastics with elements of contemporary dance and point out specific components, which should be part of this kind of dance.
