Abstract

The book contains an annotated Czech translation of two volumes of Traité de haute composition musicale Rejcha, which were published in Paris between 1824 and 1826. This translation is accompanied by notes which Carl Czerny commented on some parts of Rejcha textbooks in contemporary German translation (1833-1835).

Editor Roman Dykast in the final study publications interprets Rejcha's textbook in a historical context and comments on the main themes of Rejcha's work.
