Женското и мъжкото във фолклорно-музикалната ни култура
The Feminine and the Masculine in Our Folk Music Culture

Summary/Abstract: Feminine and masculine in Bulgarian music folklore find expression in specifically feminine and masculine performance, feminine and masculine vocal training, feminine and masculine participation in the ritual and custom musical tradition, feminine and masculine repertoire. Series of historical, religious, moral and ethical changes in the Bulgarian folk society seem to be stimulating the development and changes in this musical opposition. The dialect parameters of the opposition masculine-feminine are also interpreted in the inquiry. Modern aspects of relations and mutual infiltration of the masculine repertoire and masculine performance style and the feminine practices and vice versa have been outlined.
