About article:
In the course of the 20th century many writers attempted to define the distinctive cultural code of the Slovaks in Vojvodina, the historical Slovak enclave in Serbia. The musicologist, music teacher, composer and performer Martin Kmeť (1926 – 2011), who came from this enclave, produced work in ethnomusicology especially which surpassed those local limits and won him a place in the broader context of ethnomusicology in Central Europe. He documented, analysed, classified, and comparatively studied the Slovak folk songs of Vojvodina, and based on this, he defined the specific qualities of the music and musical imagination of those belonging to that enclave. The aim of this study is to elucidate the ethnomusicological achievement of Martin Kmeť and, using the knowledge that he attained in his works, to point to some specific aspects of the musical culture of Slovaks in Vojvodina in the area of traditional folk music.
