Graduation thesis "Jena philharmonic orchestra" deals with the specific sector of German music market - symphonic orchestra. The first part of the thesis introduces the general situation in German orchestras. Stated facts in the paper are natural consequences of the year 1989 when the western Federal Republic of Germany and the eastern German Democratic Republic united to form one state. Special attention is given to the subsequent structural changes of music organisations (including orchestras) and the way of their financing according to the tariff classes that they belong to. The second part of the paper describes organisation and structure of Jena philharmonic Orchestra and particularly the way of public funding of this regional orchestra. The focus is laid on the specific legal form of the orchestra and the existence of the individual contract between the founder and the orchestra. Business and operation of the whole orchestra are described with the help of marketing mix and the statistical facts from the metioned time period and the last few years. The diploma paper is accompanied by graphic diagrams, tables, pictures and copies of the ntern unpublished documents that the Jena philharmonic Orchestra kindly lent for this thesis. The graduation thesis Jena Orchestra has the ambition of being one of the first published documents enabling Czech readers to get some general ideas about this part of German music scene which has not been covered yet very much besides the situation in Berlin and leipzig.
