COBISS.SI-ID: 33309229This paper presents the research and the importance of early sound recordings of Slovenian folk music, with an emphasis on material recorded on 78-rpm gramophone records. Because the production of 78-rpm records stopped soon after the World War II, and due to the outdated sound format of the medium and the predominance of modern sound formats, audio contents of the old records are almost inaccessible; in addition, often hardly anyone knows of their existence, even though it represents a valuable resource for scholarship.

It brings an aural impression of instrumental folkdance music from northeastern Slovenian ethnic territory in the second half of the 20th century, as can be found in the audio archive at the Institute of Ethnomusicology. CD reflects the interplay between the two ethnic groups (Slovenians and Hungarians), both in content (mixture of dance traditions) as well as geographically (recordings of the Slovenians living in Hungary).
