In his collecting activity in Slovakia Karol Plicka (1894 – 1987) gave particular attention to the Záhorie region. Taking the example of the village of Jablonica in the eastern part of this region, we demonstrate the collector’s interest in the local song repertoire, individual singers, and the specific vocal style of ornamentation in Záhorie. Using source criticism, a repertoire was identified to the extent of 187 songs, recorded from 26 singers in this locality. Particularly useful are the written records of songs by the singers Pavol Pinkava and Agneša Pinkavová. Their song repertoire contains principally ballads, wedding, and dance and love songs. In his studies the collector also gave particular attention to Pavol Pinkava as an individual singer: the records of embellished singing as rendered by this singer are comparable to the records of the singing of Eva Studeničová, an outstanding singer from the village of Moravský sv. Ján in the western part of Záhorie. The records of songs performed by other singers are instructive as regards observation of song variants, and they highlight the contemporary condition and preservation of folk singing in local tradition.

Heuristic research thus far conducted on the manuscript collection of Karol Plicka (1894–1987) has focused on the region of central Považie in the north-west of Slovakia. Reconstruction of the song repertoire has shown that this collector documented almost 950 songs in total, in 24 localities of this region. The article completes the identification of the regional song corpus with a treatment of the manuscript and published records from the locality of Vieska-Bezdedov (today part of the town of Púchov). Plicka conducted field work in this locality at the inception of his activity in Slovakia. From Plicka’s written records from this locality, we have been able to identify 79 songs and 17 singers, from all generational strata. Almost half of the song records contain multipart singing in group performance (solo – tutti), as one of the style features of regional musical culture. The analysis of this song repertoire has confirmed that Plicka documented traditional folk singing across the entire span of the song genres.

To the present day, the song repertoire of Slovaks from Stará Pazova has preserved distinctive musical features, which had already attracted the attention of 20th century researchers. Among these is the fact that the pentatonic scale is richly represented in traditional Slovak songs of this locality. In classifying the individual pentatonic groups we proceed from the classification method of Zoltán Kodály, who distinguishes four pentatonic groups of songs. The author of this article describes Kodály’s method and subsequently applies it to the song material from Stará Pazova. Using ethnomusicological analysis, she further specifies the individual pentatonic groups from the area. With the new characterisation of the pentatonic, there is also a new hypothesis on the origin of this specific musical feature in traditional Slovak singing in this locality.
