Slovenské ľudové piesne, a collection of Slovak folk songs by Béla Bartók (1881–1945) was produced on the basis of field research conducted in the years 1906–1918. The three parts of this collection were published gradually only from the middle of the 20th century (1959, 1970, 2007). The greater part of the song material from the Ponitrie region in this collection comes from the village of Dražovce (109 entries). In the article we address the influence of Bartók’s collecting activity on the development and contemporary state of the song tradition in the village of Dražovce. We trace the memories of local inhabitants of Bartók’s collecting work, handed down in this village as part of local memory. Comparison of the historical entries with the contemporary register highlights not only the long life of part of this repertoire with its variant mutations, but also the powerful awareness among the inhabitants of Bartók’s activity in this village.

Béla Bartók gathered folk songs in Slovakia during the years 1904 – 1918. Based on Bartók’s correspondence from this period as hitherto published in Hungarian, the author has excerpted information about his journeys to Slovakia. In chronological order she elucidates the regions where he conducted fieldwork, the localities of his collecting activity, his contacts with singers, and the situations accompanying his documentation in the field. From the correspondence there is selected citation of Bartók’s commentary, which is valuable as the authentic testimony of an ethnomusicologist from his journeys in search of folk song and folk music.

The oeuvre of Béla Bartók (1881–1945) includes a group of compositions usually labelled as “barbarian”. This study focuses on the delineation of the characteristic structural features and aesthetic ideals of this “barbarism”. It examines the various contexts tied to Bartók’s personality. At the time when his personal style was evolving in around 1910, he was significantly influenced by stylizations of authentic Norwegian folklore in the late works of Edvard Grieg (1843–1907). This study aims to point out that “barbarism”, a term with mostly negative connotations, is not very suitable word for the stylistic orientation in Bartók’s musical oeuvre that was primarily inspired by archaic peasant folk dance music. In addition, it investigates the consequences and impacts of the theory of the “barbarian character” of Bartók’s music on its performance.
