The contemporary composers’ limited knowledge of the musical culture of the second half of the 18th and the first half of the 19th centuries has led to the fact that in the repertoire of students there is a uniformity and standard in the performance of famous composers and their works of this period. The holding of a number of educational exhibitions by the staff of the leading libraries of the Czech Republic and Ukraine revealed a large layer of musical culture of hitherto unknown works and their authors, especially from the Razumovskys’ music collection. The diffi culty in reading the musical text in old keys did not become an obstacle to mastering this musical literature. Of particular note are Georg Benda’s Six Sonatas for Clavier. Interest is aroused not only by the comprehension of this work, but also by the personality of the composer, the era and the style of interpretation. The author strongly recommends including the composition of G. Benda Six Sonatas for Clavier into the educational repertoire of musical educational institutions

Les personnes ayant un trouble du spectre de l’autisme (TSA) ont fréquemment des problèmes graphomoteurs. Ces difficultés ont à leur tour des répercussions sur de nombreuses occupations, le rendement scolaire et le développement de la personne. Dans cette situation, l’écriture avec un clavier peut s’avérer une alternative pertinente. Cette étude vise à décrire le rendement des enfants ayant un TSA dans leur réalisation de tâches avec le clavier d’ordinateur et de le comparer à celui des enfants à développement typique. Le Test du rendement dans l’utilisation de l’ordinateur a été administré à un échantillon de 53 enfants âgés entre six et 15 ans ayant un TSA. Les résultats suggèrent qu’ils peuvent avoir un rendement équivalent, supérieur ou inférieur en fonction de leurs caractéristiques et du type de tâche. Le test permet également d’observer plusieurs particularités de leurs processus d’apprentissage. Des suggestions pour l’amélioration des connaissances et des pratiques en découlent. Persons with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) frequently have graphomotor problems. These difficulties in turn have repercussions on numerous tasks, on academic performance and on personal development. In this situation, writing using a keyboard can be a relevant alternative. This study aims to describe the performance of children with an ASD in performing tasks using a computer keyboard and to compare it with that of children whose development is typical. The Performance using a computer test was administered to a sample of 53 children with an ASD, aged 6 to 15. Findings suggest that they can offer an equal, superior or inferior performance depending on their characteristics and on the type of task performed. The test also allows the observation of several characteristics in their learning processes. Suggestions for the improvement of the knowledge base and practices follow.
