Abstract:
The paper presents an analysis of songbooks used in kindergarten. It outlines the need for renewal of the existing kindergarten curriculum from the perspective of preserving the Slovenian music tradition, and within this context, the indispensable role of children’s folk songs in the preservation of Slovenian folk music. Furthermore, it tackles the following three issues: (i) the disproportionate representation of children’s folk songs and author songs in songbooks; (ii) the information provided about children’s folk songs in songbooks, and (iii) the representation of children’s folk songs in kindergarten.

Abstract:
The Slovenian philologist and folk song researcher Karel Strekelj (1859-1812) was one of the first researchers in Slovenia to recognise the importance and usefulness of a new sound recording method. Based on a detailed study of archival documents and relevant literature, in this article I examine Strekelj?s contribution to folk music research using a new technical device and introducing a new method of sound documentation to field research. By placing his plans and efforts in a broader context of folk song research, one concludes that Strekelj was more ambitious and forward-thinking than many other researchers at the time.

Prispevek je nastal kot etnografski oris delovanja kantorjev in pogrebnih pevcev na območju Prekmurja in Porabja ter z njimi povezanih vsebinskih in kontekstualnih vprašanj. V središču zanimanja so nosilci glasbenih aktivnosti, povezanih z bogoslužjem in pogrebnim obredjem, zato se osrednja vprašanja nanašajo na glasbeni repertoar, kulturnozgodovinsko umestitev delovanja kantorja in pogrebnih pevcev ter na njihovo vlogo in pomen v skupnosti. Prispevek temelji na opazovanju tako v madžarskih kot slovenskih skupnostih v Prekmurju in Porabju, in sicer v okviru protestantske kot tudi katoliške cerkve.***The paper is an ethnographic outline of the activities of cantors and funeral singers in the Prekmurje region in Slovenia and the Raba Valley in western Hungary related to textual and contextual questions. The research focuses on music performers at liturgies and funeral rituals, so the main issue addresses the music repertoire, the cultural and historical status of the cantor and funeral singers, and their role in the community. The paper is based on the observation in both Hungarian and Slovenian communities in Prekmurje region and in the Raba Valley, both within Protestant and Catholic churches.

Abstract:
Although a significant proportion of folk knowledge of nature concerns knowledge of invertebrates and vertebrates living in the wild, very little ethnozoological research has been carried out in Central Europe focusing on the whole fauna. In writing the present paper, our aim was to contribute to filling this gap by interviewing 40 local farmers who are particularly knowledgeable on this topic, half of them from the Őrség region of Hungary, and half from the neighboring villages in Slovenia, and by recording their knowledge with respect to non-domesticated animals.Our research identified the second highest number of taxa (242 species-level folk taxa) in terms of investigations carried out in the Hungarian language area in relation to the entire fauna. These included 129 invertebrate folk taxa, 73% of which were called by a species-specific name. They also included 109 vertebrate folk taxa, 103 of which had a separate species-level local name. In the case of two groups (butterflies and mammals), we also investigated attributes that were important and salient from the point of view of species knowledge: morphology and size were of particular relevance in relation to mammal species; while salient habitat features and frequency were relevant in relation to butterfly species. In the case of both groups, usefulness was the least important factor.Despite the general erosion of traditional ecological knowledge in Europe, these recently collected data indicate that a rich, vibrant knowledge is still to be found among the Hungarians whom we interviewed in the Őrség region and the neighboring villages in Slovenia. The especially large number of recorded folk taxa, and the accurate knowledge required to differentiate between them confirm, that even today it is worth carrying out investigations on this topic in East Central Europe in the interests of obtaining knowledge of, and conserving cultural and natural values.

Abstract:
The paper examines the views of professionals in primary schools with a special education program in relation to folkloric activities and content. The research involved 240 professionals from all 28 Slovenian educational institutions implementing the program. Respondents rated their agreement on statements related to formal education and folklore activities, inclusion of folklore content and activities, attitudes towards folklore and classroom work, and use of folklore content for therapeutic purposes on a 5-point scale. The main findings relate to the fact that during institutional training, professionals did not acquire sufficient knowledge to teach folkloric content when working with students with special needs, suggesting that there are still many opportunities for progress in the integration of folkloric content and activities, with a focus on folk dances, folk songs, folk games and customs and habits, in institutions that implement the special education program of education. This is confirmed by the fact that the professionals have a very positive attitude towards folklore in general. The results can represent a starting point for future research, which would confirm the need for an interdisciplinary approach in different scientific fields (special and rehabilitation education, music didactics, folklore, ethnochoreology, music therapy, psychology and kinesiology).

Iz pisnih virov in pogovorov z glasbeniki, ki na pogrebih nastopajo več desetletij, izvemo, da je bila na pogrebih v preteklosti ljudska glasba v izvedbi moških pevskih skupin tradicionalna glasbena praksa. Terenska raziskava je pokazala, da se danes ta tradicija dopolnjuje z uporabo različnih zvrsti glasbe od klasične do popularne v izvedbi vokalnih ali inštrumentalnih skupin in solistov.***The field research of funeral music in today's Slovenia indicates that traditional songs are often employed to accompany the process of bidding farewell to a deceased person. From written sources and in conversations with musicians performing at funerals for decades, we find out that traditional music performed by male vocal groups was a traditional musical practice at funerals in the past. Field research revealed that this tradition is complemented by the use of various types of music from classical to popular, performed by vocal and instrumental soloists and groups.

Full text
Abstract:
It is worth noting that the important journal of the history of Serbian literature and music, the Serbian Literary Magazine (1901 - 1914, 1920 1941), became more Yugoslav-oriented within a relatively short period following its inception. From its early beginning to 1906, the Magazine?s musical critics did not actively express its Yugoslav ideology. But from 1907 there was an increase of interest in both the music and the musicians from Croatia and Slovenia. In 1911 the Croatian Opera spent almost two weeks in Belgrade performing; the composer and musicologist, Miloje Milojevic began to develop the idea of union with Slavs from the South in a critical analysis he rendered of their performance. Until the end of the first/old series, SLM highlighted a noticeable number of texts about Croatians and Slovenians: critical reviews of Croatian musical books, concerts of Slovenian artists in Belgrade, score editions of Slovenian music performances of instrument soloists from Zagreb in Belgrade - as well as notes about the musical work of Croatian Academy (Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts, Zagreb). Echoes of rare tours of Serbian musicians in South Slavs cultural centers did not go unheard, either. In the older series of the journal, lasting and two-fold relations had already begun to lean towards Yugoslav ideology. From one side, even before World War I, Yugoslav ideology in the Magazine was accepted as a program objective of Serbian political and cultural elite. On the other, the journal does not appear to have negotiated any of its aesthetic criterion when estimating musical events that came from Zagreb and Ljubljana to Belgrade - at least not "in the name of Yugoslav ideology". In later series of SLM, the Yugoslav platform was being represented as official ideological statehood of newly created Kingdoms of Serbs, Croats and Slovenians (1918), i.e., the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1929). At that time, the Magazine had occasional literary cooperation from Croatian musical writers such as Lujo Safranek-Kavic, Bozidar Sirola and Antun Dobronic. Their articles described activities of the Croatian National Theatre and evaluated new works of Croatian composers. But they were not at all remiss about acknowledging great masterpieces of European music being performed in Zagreb in their day, either. The works of Claude Debussy, Pell?as et M?lisande; Ludwig van Beethoven, Missa solemnis Richard Wagner, Lohengrin were also followed through reviews, albeit within a curious Croatian-paradigm of musical history which included musical and dramatic theatre from Ljubljana, Zagreb, Split, Sarajevo, Skoplje, Osijek. In other words, they seem to have been aware of the cultural differences without ignoring what from them were shared in common. Before the First World War, SLM classified Bulgarians together with Serbs, Croats and Slovenians, as the future "Yugoslav nation". When the reality of politics clouded their vision, the Magazine?s musical critics nevertheless pursued a troupe of Bulgarian performers to visit Belgrade, and thus added to their repertoire from works of Bulgarian composers. Among musical contributors to the journal were the eminently known "Yugoslavs", Dr Miloje Milojevic (1884 - 1946) and Dr Viktor Novak (1889 - 1977). From Croatia and Slovenia musicians Juro Tkalcic and Ciril Licar, Milojevic spoke about "our national artists" and praised musicians who, in their program, included compositions of "all Yugoslav nations". Dr Novak demanded that Belgrade become the musical capital of South Slavs, and invited Belgrade Opera to show on its scene the best Serbian, Croatian and Slovenian operas and ballets. From its onset, the Kingdom of Yugoslavia was burdened by heavy political and economical problems. That would also lead to bitter dispute about Yugoslavian ideology. Nevertheless, SLM did not renounce the system of its objectives and values upon which it was built. But there is one particular section where the Magazine?s inconsistency can be noticed - when seen from a Yugoslav dimension of the journal - is the necrology column. Magazine did not publish even one obituary of Croatian musicians, and wrote fragmentary unclear and unconvincing criterion about Slovenians. However, it would be neither appropriate, nor real, to interpret incompleteness of the Magazine?s musical necrological texts in purely ideological light. Namely an insufficient number of musical contributors from all Yugoslav provinces - with the exception of Serbia - was probably the main reason for these omissions. After all, SLM was a literary journal and, as such, entertained numerous literary problems and questions. At some point, the editors must have agreed that the information in the field of musical posthumous articles was insufficient. The obvious absence of said would indicate that they did.

Abstract:
Музыкальная культура Резии (территория Итальянской Славии) сохраняется на протяжении сотен лет благодаря изоляции в альпийских предгорьях. Статья посвящена берущей начало в середине ХIХ века истории изучения резианского фольклора, а также современным тенденциям, связанным с сохранением нематериального культурного наследия. Научный интерес исследователей разных специальностей нашел отражение как в публикациях (И. И. Срезневский, И. А. Бодуэн де Куртенэ, Элла фон Шульц), так и в экспедиционных (А. Ломакс, Д. Наталетти, Ю. Страйнар, М. Матичетов) и иных коллекциях звукозаписей. Собрание звуковых материалов нашего современника Габриэле Керубини в мае 2018 года было передано в дар Санкт-Петербургской государственной консерватории в память о выпускнице консерватории, основоположнице изучения резианского музыкального фольклора Элле фон Шульц (Адаевски); первые нотации народных мелодий и теоретическое исследование, выполненные ею в 1883 году, свидетельствуют о своеобразных чертах резианской музыкальной культуры. Экспедиционные звукозаписи итальянских (1954 год) и словенских (1962–1986 годы) этномузыкологов зафиксировали многообразие микролокальных традиций бытования различных жанров фольклора и богатство индивидуальных стилей музыкантов-инструменталистов. Коллекция Г. Керубини демонстрирует эффективное сочетание традиционных и современных (с использованием цифровых технологий) подходов к фиксации образцов народной музыки; данные подходы направлены на сохранение фольклорного наследия и включение его в современную культурную практику. On the territory of Italian Slavia, Resia’s musical culture has survived due to isolation in the Alpine foothills for hundreds of years. The article is devoted to the history of the study of Resian folklore, which dates back to the middle of the 19th century, as well as to modern trends related to the preservation of intangible cultural heritage. The scientific interest of researchers of various specialties was reflected in publications and sound recordings of different years (I. I. Sreznevsky, J. N. I. Baudouin de Courtenay, Ella von Schulz, Ju. Strainar, M. Matichetov). The collection of sound materials of our contemporary Gabriele Cherubini was donated to the St. Petersburg State Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory in May 2018 in memory of Ella von Schultz (Adaïewsky) — a graduate of the Conservatory, founder of Resian musical folklore studies. Her first notations of folk melodies and a theoretical research carried out in 1883 testify to the peculiar features of the Resian musical culture. Sound recordings made by Italian (1954) and Slovenian (1962–1986) ethnomusicologists during the expeditions recorded the diversity of micro-local traditions of existence of various genres of folklore and richness of the individual styles of instrumental musicians. G. Cherubini’s collection demonstrates both traditional and modern (using digital technologies) approaches to fixing folk music samples, aimed at preserving the folklore heritage and including it in the modern cultural practice.

Folk dance ensembles within minority ethnic communities (Albanian, Bosniak, Montenegrin, Croatian, Macedonian and Serbian) in Slovenia were formed in the 1990s, after the breakup of Yugoslavia. The authors present the key reasons for the folklore activities that contributed to the emergence of the so-called minority folk dance ensembles, describe their beginnings and how they eventually became organized, institutionalized, and integrated into the amateur culture system in Slovenia. The goal of minority folk dance ensembles is to dance for ethnic roots, but at the same time, the desire to enrich the cultural space in their new county and to integrate into society in which they live.

The aim of this study was to find out in what ways music is used in homes for the elderly in Slovenia and what kind of effects it has on the psychophysical well-being of the elderly. The basis is the analysis of conversations with music therapists and occupational therapists. There are fundamental differences between different music activities, special music activities and music therapy. Some seniors are able to talk about what music means to them. Older people prefer to sing, especially folk songs or songs from their youth, as well as playing and listening to music. An important area is the use of music in people with dementia. With transitions to higher stages of dementia, it is crucial that the elderly’s responses to music is monitored by a therapist.

Abstract:
Traditional ecological knowledge of plants is an important aspect of scholarship in relation to land use and contributes to the sustainable use and management of natural resources as well as to the monitoring of changes in the natural environment. The aim of the present paper was to examine traditional ecological knowledge in Hungarian communities in Slovenia in connection with knowledge of the plants growing in the region, their local names, and their uses. We quantified the earlier role of the utilized plant species in order to determine the former significance of certain species. We carried out structured interviews with a total of 20 individuals in three studied settlements. In the Hungarian communities in Slovenia, we uncovered knowledge of a total of 130 folk taxa. Of these, 123 taxa have local names. The majority of the folk taxa can be correlated with a single biological species. A significant proportion of the known species were utilized in some way, most of them as medicinal plants, wild edible plants, or ornamental plants. As in other farming communities, the most important species are mainly woody plants, which include the common hornbeam, the common juniper, and the silver birch. Among the herbaceous plants, utilization of the dandelion, nettle, and bulrush was significant. Members of the older generations living in the Hungarian communities in Slovenia still retain knowledge of plants that were once used on a daily basis, along with their local names and the traditional ecological knowledge connected with their earlier use.

Abstract:
Slovenian folk pop is one of the most under-researched music genres in Slovenia. To learn more about it, we conducted research about the demographics of those who listen to it. The results show that this genre is popular principally among older, less-educated, religious, politically right-leaning people in the countryside, while it is also listened to by other segments of society, albeit to a smaller degree. We also found that there is no significant correlation between listening to folk pop and economic class and gender. This suggests that Slovenian society is stratified into various cultural formations, primarily with respect to education, religiosity, age, political affiliations and place of residence rather than economic class.

Abstract:
Until recently, the inhabitants of the Val Canale (Sln. Kanalska dolina, Ger. Kanaltal, Fur. Val Cjanâl) spoke Slovenian, German, Italian, and Friulian, but today Italian predominates. The article presents the folk customs of the village patron’s feast and New Year’s caroling and greetings in the village of Ugovizza (Slo. Ukve, Ger. Uggowitz, Fur. Ugovitse), where the Slovenian dialect and multilingualism, intertwined thoroughly in the ritual events, have been preserved for the longest time. The collaborators of the Institute of Slovenian Ethnology and the Audiovisual Laboratory ZRC SAZU from Ljubljana participated in these events for several years and filmed customs, the stories of the locals, and scenes from the life in the village and the mountains. The author focuses on singing, songs, and linguistic communication, pointing out the great importance of multilingualism for preserving traditional culture and vice versa. Especially where the population does not receive education in the mother tongue, which is otherwise suppressed from public life, traditional culture offers people a rare opportunity to speak their mother tongue or the native dialect in public in a relaxed manner. It is because it expresses the meaning of the entire ritual.
