Zmiany endogenne i egzogenne repertuaru pieśniowego Beskidu Śląskiego : wybrane przykłady

Abstract

The article deals with folk music culture in the Silesian Beskid. Endogenous and exogenous transformations in the Beskid repertoire are related to various factors, therefore taking a definite attitude towards them may bring an ambivalent result. In the first case, according to the author, the changes may move in two directions, depending on the repertoire awareness of folk musicians. The transformation process may be conscious when it is based on an authentic, well-known repertoire. In the case of the absence of a solid repertoire basis or being not aware of them (it is mostly true for young musicians), unreflective repeating of musical material occurs, which may result in “musical impoverishment” and even in the “loss of musical tradition”.
