<i>Alois Hába (1893–1973): Mezi tradicí a inovací.</i>By Vlasta Reitterová and Lubomír Spurný
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Pity the poor composer lumbered with a label. A label can provide early recognition but can easily turn into an albatross. And if the label refers to what was once an excitingly modern-sounding project, it can, decades later, sound distinctly old-fashioned. If Alois Hába is known outside his homeland, it is as one of the most prominent and industrious composers of quarter-tone and sixth-tone music. But quarter-tone and sixth-tone music, however up to date in the 1920s and 1930s, has been overtaken by the infinite resources of electronic music, leaving an array of expensive and complicated specially made quarter-tone pianos and clarinets languishing in museums rather than in general use. To brand Hába with this particular label, however, was unfair in the first place, as Vlasta Reitterová and Lubomír Spurný plaintively point out. Less than a third of Hába’s vast output is microtonal (including one never-to-be repeated fifth-tone string quartet); it includes much more diatonic and chromatic music. And Hába’s overall profile is one of the most interesting of Czech composers of his day: a leading modernist, an influential teacher, a committed left-wing composer, and a music organizer.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
