Music in the Contemporary Social Context: A Fieldwork in the Delnice District

Summary/Abstract: The topic of this paper is everyday music performances in Delnice, that is, music that can be heard in contemporary local parties and festivities. The subject matter is, therefore, an attempt to identify a local community through its everyday musical expression. The informers did not necessarily have to be musicians, so that, for example, Antun Majnarić and Marija Rački, talk about dances and songs that used to be performed in Delnice. Comparing music from the past with the contemporary music, one is lead to conclude that the folk music from the Delnice Disctrict is a mixture of different influences. It matches with the mentality and lifestyle of the people who create, perform, learn and adopt it, as well as pass it on by oral narration.
