Diploma thesis supervisor Mgr. Lucie Podroužková, Ph. D. ANNOTATION This diploma thesis deals with British musical composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and his works. The first part of the thesis introduces Lloyd Webber’s biography, his close collaborators as well as his production company the Really Useful Group and description of all his works. The main part of the thesis is aimed at his musicals Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Jesus Christ Superstar , rather their origin and development, the main plot and their main characters that have many things in common. Both these musicals are based on topics from the Bible. The thesis also deals with the librettos and their translation into Czech. ANOTACE Diplomová práce se zabývá britským hudebním skladatelem Andrew Lloyd Webberem a jeho díly. První část práce seznamuje s Lloyd Webberovým životopisem, jeho blízkými spolupracovníky, stejně jako s jeho produkční společností Really Useful Group a popisem všech jeho děl. Hlavní část práce je zaměřena na muzikály Josef a jeho úžasný pestrobarevný plášť a Jesus Christ Superstar , přesněji řečeno jejich vznik a vývoj, hlavní dějovou linii a jejich hlavní postavy, které mají mnoho společného. Oba tyto muzikály jsou založeny na příbězích z Bible. Práce se také zabýva librety obou muzikálů a jejich překladem do češtiny. 2 I declare that I have worked on this thesis on my own and used only the sources listed in the Bibliography.

Er ist vor allem für seine zahlreichen Musicals bekannt. Er ist Oscar-, Golden-Globe- und Grammypreisträger. Herkunft und Ausbildung Andrew Lloyd Webber, der Sohn des Komponisten William Lloyd Webber (1914–1982) und der Pianistin Jean Hermione (1921–1993), begann im Alter von sechs Jahren mit dem Komponieren und veröffentlichte mit neun Jahren seine erste Suite. Nachdem er ein Geschichtsstudium am Magdalen College, University of Oxford, abgebrochen hatte, wechselte er an das Royal College of Music in London. Werke Webber lernte den Texter Tim Rice kennen und es entwickelte sich eine intensive Zusammenarbeit, in deren Folge Rice die Texte zu diversen Werken Webbers verfasste.

  • The Life and Music of William Lloyd Webber John France
    The Life and Music of William Lloyd Webber John France The purpose of this essay is threefold: firstly, to present a brief biographical introduction of William Lloyd Webber, secondly, to give an overview of the literature concerning the composer and thirdly, a selective ‘reception history’ of his music on CD and in the concert hall. The essay concludes with a short discography. ILLIAM SOUTHCOMBE LLOYD WEBBER was born into a respectable, but W relatively poor, family at 274 King's Road, Chelsea, London, on 11 March 1914. His father, William, was a self-employed plumber whose favourite recreation was visiting as many church and civic organs as his leisure and finances would permit. William was soon accompanying his father on these trips. At a young age he was playing the piano and organ, giving recitals and even broadcasting on the nascent BBC. After winning an organ scholarship to Mercers School in Holborn, Lloyd Webber went up to the Royal College of Music on a Sir John Goss Scholarship. There he had composition lessons with Vaughan Williams and studied organ under Dr Henry Ley. He was to gain his BMus and his Fellowship of the Royal College of Organists in 1933, aged nineteen. In 1938 he was awarded his DMus from the London College of Music. It was around this time that Lloyd Webber began to compose. His first performed work was a Violin Sonatina, now lost. The earliest surviving work is the Fantasy Trio (1936), possibly composed for the well-known Cobbett chamber music prize. This trio pushed (in places) beyond the notion of English Pastoralism towards the more astringent harmonies of Frank Bridge’s later music and the soundscape of Alban Berg.
