Abstract

Within their individual solutions and approaches in the relationship between Art Music and Folklore, Croatian composers of second half of 20th century have particularly shown variety and multiplicity. Among them, I will focus in a specific way on those solutions that more strongly moved away from the recognisability of material embracing a more complex interpretation of this relationship. Exploring the relationship between Art Music and Folklore in composers' poetics of second half of 20th century with comparative methodology, contemplating the broadest trends in Western Art, I would like to examine how many elements and attitudes are specific of the Croatian environment and which elements the Croatian composers deal with the most general trends abroad. I chose to address the issue using some of the works of two composers belonging to the same generation: Natko Devčić and Slavko Zlatić.

These Proceedings present a collection of papers delivered at an international scholarly conference held in Zagreb between 27 and 29 October 2011, organized by the Croatian Musicological Society and the Department for History of Croatian Music of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, both from Zagreb, on the occasion of 100th anniversary of the passing away of Franjo Ksaver Kuhač (1834-1911), the outstanding pioneer of historical musicology, ethnomusicology and music historiography in Croatia. The first thematic area of the Symposium was devoted to the issues of understanding, constructing and writing music historiography, exemplified by Kuhač himself in his vast and complex scholarly output dealing with Croatian and South-Slavic music historiography. Taking into account that Kuhač was prevailingly active during the period of „national Romanticism“, in which similar or identical problems were treated by many other European national musicologies, other contributions were welcomed dealing with corresponding ethnic and/or national topics, as well as those elaborating it on theoretical levels. The second proposed thematic area covered questions of conceiving, establishing and creating music identity/identities – at local, regional, national and/or supranational levels – which, again, have been illustrated in a multifold and sometimes controversial manner by Kuhač's own steering between Croatian, South-Slavic and Pan-Slavic identities. This Proceedings consists of 26 articles in all. Their authors are outstanding musicologists, ethnomusicologists, aestheticians of music and university professors from Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Montenegro, Poland, Slovenia, and the USA. In relation to our former understanding of F. Ks. Kuhač's activities and the range of his achievements, this Proceedings offers a series of new data and insights first of all in Kuhač's contemporary and today's presence and importance within the Central-European space. Thus it is well documented that Kuhač used to be and still is a personality and scholar who widely surpasses the national frames within which he has been mostly regarded up to now.
