Abstract

To what use does comparative ethnomusicological research over a vast area be put? It suffices for a nation to realize that it is imperative to know the music of its neighbors and language relatives in order to explore the particular and general features of its own folk music. It holds true in general, too, that a comparative examination is more informative and revelatory than the separate study of the music of the peoples concerned.
