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.
