About the Musical Life of the Island of Silba – Church and Folk Singing
Ivan Bošković
Sažetak
Over the past century, the musical landscape of the island of Silba has garnered the attention of various local experts including ethnologists, folklorists, musicians, writers, and historians. However, numerous aspects are still inadequately explored or completely unexplored. Existing researches have yielded collection of the materials that provided a partial glimpse into the history of the northernmost island of the Zadar archipelago. However, published works so far have focused on providing detailed and comprehensive presentation of the dance life of Silba, and the musical instruments, where we have been able to establish their historical usage on the island. Further research should prioritize the study of vocal traditions as the available archival data, published materials and subsequently collected data failed to provide a comprehensive account of this facet of Silba's musical history. It is crucial to acknowledge that existing research on Silba's musical life has analysed the dance steps of all five preserved ancient Silba dances. Furthermore, no examination has been conducted on the accompanying sheet music examples and the lyrics of the songs sung on Silba. Therefore, as crucial first steps in advancing research on the history of the island's music, a detailed analysis of the aforementioned elements should be undertaken.
