Abstracts

EN

During the period 1940 – 1943 Jozef Kresánek worked as an official of the Musical Section of Matica slovenská in Martin. Here he had the opportunity to make acquaintance, among other sources, with the extensive manuscript collection of Slovak folk songs by Karol Plicka. Kresánek, when processing this collection for the first time, gained knowledge which he afterwards put to use in his synthetic work Slovenská ľudová pieseň zo stanoviska hudobného (Slovak folk song from the musical standpoint) (1951, 21997). Here he used Plicka’s manuscript records of Slovak folk songs to illustrate individual styles in Slovak folk singing. Apart from adopting selected extracts, Kresánek relies in this work on the various studies by Plicka, establishing continuity and simultaneously revaluating them in the light of his own knowledge.
