The conservatory in Teplice is one of the relatively young institutions (it was founded in 1971), but in less than half a century of its existence it has already educated several generations of professional musicians, ie active artists and music teachers. Due to its sovereign position (it is the only school of its kind in the Ústí nad Labem Region), it is logically in the center of attention of both potential applicants and potential employers. It can be said without exaggeration that the main part of the "playing base" of the North Bohemian Philharmonic in Teplice and the North Bohemian Theater in Ústí nad Labem consists of graduates of the Teplice Conservatory and the same applies to the pedagogical choirs of basic art schools in the region.
The Conservatory in Teplice offers its future students a wide range of classical disciplines, from playing one of the instruments of a symphony orchestra, keyboard instruments (piano, organ or harpsichord), guitar, recorder, to composition and conducting or classical singing. However, the school also responds to the current artistic demand in the sphere of less traditional disciplines, specifically by teaching popular singing or a completely newly conceived study of electronic keyboard instruments, which is on the border of interpretation-oriented field, composition and arrangement.
Students gain artistic practice thanks to an inexhaustible number of performances, from purely school activities - working in the school symphony orchestra, choir and in the artistically strongly expanding Big Band of the Conservatory - through cooperation with Teplice Spa to hosting school students in the North Bohemian Philharmonic within the Orchestral Academy or North Bohemian Theater in Ústí nad Labem. In cooperation with the House of Culture in Teplice, the conservatory organizes several traditional concerts, which are popular events of the Teplice cultural season: Christmas concert with the Czech Christmas Mass by J. J. Ryba, Valentine's concert of the Big Band and the popular singing department and the so-called multi-genre concert of the symphony orchestra. Every year, the school's best students present themselves to the public as part of the "North Bohemian Philharmonic Orchestra presents young performers of the Teplice Conservatory". At the beginning of the summer, the Music to the Streets festival takes place regularly. The streets of Teplice are literally filled to the letter by students of the conservatory with their performances and music.
The pedagogical staff of the school consists of experienced teachers of all ages, more than half of whom are also performing artists. Educational activities according to the school educational program are complemented by a number of workshops, lectures, excursions and master classes led by internationally recognized performers or teachers of other art schools, which allow students to get acquainted with the top artists and current trends in the field.
The conservatory also does not forget its partners in the field of art education, elementary art schools, for which it organizes competitions with a strong regional dimension: Teplice flutes (competition show of young recorder players, which has been held annually since 2010) and Beethoven's Teplice, national competition piano hopes, organized since 2016 in cooperation with ZUŠ in Teplice.
The MenART Scholarship Academy supports the search for development and support of young talents and offers support and inspiration to educators who teach them. The MenART Academy is open to pupils of basic art schools, 2nd grade of primary school or students of secondary schools.
The MenART Academy was established in close cooperation with the Magdalena Kožená Endowment Fund, the aim of which is to support and raise the profile of the importance of art education in our society.
In addition to the study part itself, the MenART Academy offers students the opportunity to gain experience in presenting the results of joint work in cooperation with renowned cultural institutions - festivals Prague Spring, Smetana's Litomyšl, Bohemian Heritage Fund. As part of the implementation of working meetings of the Academy, it cooperates with the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague, the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague, the Technical University in Liberec and the Czech Technical University in Prague.

Musicology is an academic field that deals with the theoretical reflection of music. We are interested in how music and its operation work in different historical and cultural contexts, what it means to whom; why and how people create it, how they think and write about it; who, how and why listens or runs it; on what instruments or voices; in improvised or composed form; as an oral-auditory tradition or as a written work fixed; as an entertainment, political instrument or means of aesthetic or religious ecstasy; as a functional part of something else or as an autonomous art to which it is listened to intently and other questions.
In order to be able to answer these questions, musicologists gradually began to use a variety of research methods. Some of them are intrinsically musicological, such as musical analysis and its various approaches to understanding musical structure. Other methods are shared by musicology with other disciplines, traditionally with history, but also with philology, art history, aesthetics, anthropology, sociology, linguistics and others. We work with historical musical sources, we critique the musical text (and we prepare musical editions), we study contemporary statements about music and its operating practice. Towards the present, we carry out field research, in which we listen, observe, talk to people and study their musical activities on the Internet; we are interested in audiovisual media, sound and much more.
Our goal is to provide you with an insight into as many areas and research methods as possible during the bachelor's study, and in the follow-up master's study to deepen the ability of scientific thinking and enable greater specialization according to your own interest.
The Department of Musicology, Faculty of Arts, Palacky University, the second oldest university in the Czech lands (opened in 1573), was founded in 1946. After a period of merging with the Department of Music and Education, it was rebuilt in 1990.
At present, it represents a workplace that offers a bachelor's, master's and doctoral study program in the fields of music theory and history, as well as a bachelor's degree in art history.
At the same time, it profiles itself as a research center. The main area of interest here is the music of the 19th and 20th centuries, especially the research of important personalities of Czech musical culture (Zdeněk Fibich, Leoš Janáček, Vítězslav Novák, Josef Suk etc.), and musical theater.
Another specialization is Czech Baroque music (music by Pavel Josef Vejvanovský, Adam Michna of Otradovice, Italian opera in Bohemia and Moravia, music at the court of the Olomouc archbishops, etc.).
Special attention is also paid to organology and ethnoorganology, editions of musical sources, musical regional studies, musical aesthetics, as well as research and teaching of popular music.
