Possibility of using folklore examples from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro in solfeggio teaching: A comparative review
There is no doubt that examples from folklore have useful, functional and aesthetic value in music teaching, and that it is preferable to use them for educational purposes. Selected examples of folk songs from Montenegro have their own frame and way of musical thinking, which is not always adaptable to musical didactics in terms of notation standards. However, they are adapted and still show that folk songs can be interpolated into the system of music education. From the selected examples of folk songs from Bosnia and Herzegovina, only a small number of examples can be used for illustration, but not for solving specific elements. The notation of Bosnian sevdalinka often contains a series of passing tones that are the result of freedom of interpretation, as well as unresolved metro-rhythmic elements that are not compatible with elementary notation standards.
