About article:
This paper elucidates the findings of an analytical probe into the basic harmonic thinking and technique evidenced in the musical reworking of Slovak folk songs in the first published editions of piano adaptations. The authors of these adaptations were musically educated members of the Slovak intelligentsia and collectors. Martin Sucháň (1792–1841) and Vladislav Füredy (1794– 1850) did creditable work in the 1830s for the promotion of Slovak folk songs by compositional arrangements. Piano arrangements were intended to make the songs accessible to a wide musical and non-musical public, mainly through domestic music-making. The arrangements carry signs of the composers’ musical inventiveness, but they are marked also by a certain measure of amateurism. While they document several procedures typical of the composer, there are also some instances of defective knowledge of the conventional procedures for working on chords and their changes and harmonic functions, the construction and use of cadences, and other established structures and relationships in contemporary art music (composed music). In the published editions one can also find some errors in the notation; these, however, might originally have stemmed from the publisher’s negligence rather than the composer’s ignorance.
