U fokusu ove prezentacije su etnomuzikolozi starije generacije koji su djelovali u vremenu od šezdesetih do devedesetih godina prošlog stoljeća, dok ćemo umjesto zaključka na kraju predstaviti ono što je vidljivo u polju aplikativne etnomuzikologije od devedesetih godina do danas.

This paper should not be understood as the promotion of a new direction, new ideas, but rather as a kind of reading on what has happened and what is happening in field of the traditional/folk musical opinion in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The focus of our interest is on ethnomusicologists of the older generation, active in the period from 1960s to 1990s, although in the end, instead of the conclusion, we will present what is visible in field of applied ethnomusicology for period from the 1990s to this day.

Traditional folk music of Bosnia and Herzegovina can be best understood in light of the multicultural heritage of Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats, as well as many ethnic minority groups. But in the period 1878–1918, traditional music became open to Western European influences. Openness, as well as exposure, to the “new” becomes one of the characteristic signs of the Austro-Hungarian empire, whose new system of governance brought the unknown Western European cultural spirit to the population of Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the mentioned period, new musical instruments appeared, which were previously unknown (e.g. clarinet, accordion), as well as professional musical ensembles which were not common in Bosnian tradition. These and similar appearances made the period of Austro-Hungarian empire a unique turning point in the development of urban traditional music which was developed within the Bosnian and Herzegovinian cafes.

Singing to accompaniment of the gusle is a very important form of vocal-instrumental performance in the musical tradition of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This paper will present historic sources and research on singing to gusle accompaniment, and the methods by which songs are created, transmitted and performed by guslars.

The article deals with the bugarija [bugaria], a chordophone instrument of the long-necked lute type, which occupied an important place in the lives and customs of the Bosnia-Hercegovinian village population throughout the 20th century. Particular attention is paid to the classification of this instrument, the terminology, ergology, instrument building technology, characteristics of the tone relations, playing techniques, repertoire and performance occasions, and the instrument's diffusion on the territory of Bosnia-Herzegovina. There are very few bugarija musicians and builders active today, so that it is probably only a question of time that the instrument will become merely a part of the past, similarly to many other folk instruments. http://www.google.ba/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fhrcak.srce.hr%2Ffile%2F36662&ei=c-7vUuOfOIHoywOej4CACw&usg=AFQjCNEj5mOuih_9CeNRpQkM_JJpgeqx6w&bvm=bv.60444564,d.bGQ

Bosnian-Herzegovinian ethnomusicology started to develop in the early 1930s. The first Bosnian ethnomusicologist, Friar Branko Marić, began to research the traditional folk music of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 1920s and presented the results of his research in the doctoral dissertation Volkmusik Bosnien und der Herzegovina (1936). The first systematic ethnomusicological research was initiated by Cvjetko Rihtman in 1947 within the Institute of Folklore Research. The main goal of his fieldwork was the collection of old, traditional “untouched”, and therefore locally colored music forms. Thus, the concept of “authentic” was for a long time dominant in collecting, and when associated with “old” it worked well. However, this one-sided approach had to be overcome, since rigid approach to modern processes was a threat to the development of Bosnian ethnomusicological thought.

In July 2015, Oxford University Press published a substantial volume titled The Oxford Handbook of Applied Ethnomusicology, co-edited by two eminent ethnomusicologists, Svanibor Pettan and Jeff Todd Titon. The book is an impressive collection of different approaches in applied ethnomusicology, developed through a combination of ethnographic research (personal experiences and fieldwork in different parts of the world) and contemporary scholarship.

ABSTRACT Folk Musical Instruments in Bosnia and Herzegovina gives a complex and complete overview of traditional practice, for the first time, concerning traditional folk instruments on the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The first part of the book describes historical sources and the research of folk musical instruments in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The research of history is one of the starting points in the process of organological research and covers careful research of historical documents, photographs, sketches, audio recordings and works based on historical data. In the next four parts of the book, traditional folk instruments in Bosnia and Herzegovina are presented. The book is divided into several parts according to instrumental groups: Idiophones (Part 2), Membranophones (Part 3), Chordophones (Part 4) and Aerophones (Part 5). In each of these sections, the instruments are described separately with special attention given to terminology, ergology, the technology of instrument-making, techniques of playing and musical capabilities and repertoire. http://www.cambridgescholars.com/download/sample/58829

This edited volume is the result of the 8th Symposium of the ICTM Study Group Maqām in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, which brought together scholars from Germany, Turkey, Tunisia, Serbia, Malaysia, Finland and Bosnia and Herzegovina. In order to open up minds and to widen the horizons of discussions on historical traces and present music practices related to the maqām principle in Southern Europe and neighbouring regions, the general topic of the symposium, namely “Maqām: Historical Traces and Present Practice in South European Music Traditions”, was substructured into three special topics: “Between maqām and mode: the intermediate realms”; “Historical traces of Ottoman music in the Mediterranean Region”; and “Role and revival of religious genres in the Balkans”. The contributions included in this volume offer new insights and knowledge on various aspects of the Ottoman music culture and their stimuli in the Mediterranean region and especially in parts of the Balkans, as well as...
