Singing is a part of human life; its roots go back to the distant past. Over the course of the twentieth century, the purposes, and functions of singing in the life of the societies have undergone considerable modification. The transmission of traditional values and phenomena involves the preservation of original functions of folk songs. In the field of vocal music culture, the transmission of values, takes place in self-education circles, in the systemic framework of education and public education, or with personal intellectual motivation. Such transmission however cannot lead to the continuation of traditional functions of folk songs, since in these contexts we can usually expect a modification of the functions of singing. We analyse in detail the functions of singing as a form of behaviour that have been developed in traditional folk culture. Through the paper we draw attention to the issue of preserving the content and aesthetic values of folk song in contemporary societies and in the context of various forms of education.
