The thesis also includes a survey about the occurrence of English choral works in programmes of elite children's and women's choirs of Czech prestigious choral competitions and festivals (Porta musicae and National festival of school choirs. A chapter describes the development of choral singing on British Isles and introduces contemporary British and Irish authors who write compositions suitable for children's or women's choirs.
