Traditional music in regional education from the perspective of historical and contemporary teaching concepts

Journal Title: "Konteksty Kształcenia Muzycznego" - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

The article discusses issues concerning the role and place of traditional folk music in school and extracurricular regional education of children and young people. The idea of valorization and cultivation of folk music culture in education developed significantly as early as the interwar period. In the 1930s, in particular, the issues of music folklore and traditional music started to be placed in the context of then widespread idea of regionalism. It was reflected, inter alia, in enriching school syllabuses with elements of a regional culture, in enlivening young people’s interest in local music traditions. Over the last decades, one has been able to observe a return to those ideas, to the values of indigenous local cultures, which is manifested through, for instance, pedagogical and ethno-musicological research, educational activities, as well as new trends and musical phenomena (such as folk) promoting traditional components of the given region’s culture.
