Abstract

Simfonija u fis-molu Dore Pejačević pomalo je zaboravljeno, a možemo reći i itekako zapostavljeno djelo, stoga sam na preporuku mentora, prof. Mladena Tarbuka, odabrao upravo ovu skladbu kao temu svog diplomskog rada. Uz nekoliko riječi o životu Dore Pejačević, vremenu u kojem je živjela te ozračju u kojem je skladala – pritom mislim na situaciju u kojoj se nalazila s obzirom na položaj žena u ono vrijeme – središnji dio teksta posvećen je analizi skladbe. Analizu Simfonije temeljim prvenstveno na njezinom formalnom planu, potom tematsko-motivičkom radu te aspektima izvedbe koji su tematizirani u zaključku. Ovakav pristup djelu me u velikoj mjeri pripremio za rad s orkestrom, s obzirom da sam Simfoniju u fis-molu izveo na diplomskom koncertu.

Abstract (english)

Symphony in F#-Minor, composed by Dora Pejačević, is somewhat forgotten and fairly neglected piece. Therefore, I have chosen this piece as the topic of my final assignment, as recommended by my supervisor, prof. Mladen Tarbuk. The first part of the text is dedicated to the life of Dora Pejačević, to the time in which she had lived, and to the circumstances in which she composed her music – by circumstances, I mean gender inequality of the time – whereas the central part of this text focuses on analysis of the piece. Primarily, the analysis is grounded in Symphony's formal outline, elaboration upon themes and motifs, and finally, in aspects of its performance, which are discussed in the conclusion. Such an approach to the Symphony prepared me well and largely affected my work with the orchestra, since I have conducted the piece at the final recital.
