Summary/Abstract: This summary is closely related to the main topic of my dissertation, namely: „Pazardjik folklore in the works of composers: Stefan Mutafchiev and Milcho Vasilev.“As a basis for my publication I have focused on two songs for solo voice accompanied by an orchestra of folk instruments arranged by Milcho Vasilev. They are a vivid example of the character and specific features of Pazardjik two-part authentic songs. With this in mind, the author of the arrangements did not change the two voices, but on the contrary, harmonizing the songs, he fully complied with them. In the course of my research, I found other features in these two-part songs. This gives me some reason to believe that the Pazardjik folklore area could be considered as an independent folklore area.
