Abstract
Qualitative methodology as a relatively new methodological paradigm
seeks to skillfully construct some more complex methodological
approaches, within which researchers from various scientific
fields are prolific. These include ethnomusicologists, whose methodological
aspirations were often inspired by musical phenomena
that have been most often explored within ethnographic fields.
Already established and standardized research methods (of the
qualitative type) are used, such as content analyzes, interviews,
then eminent research strategies such as case studies, etc. On the
example of a realized and published monographic study on Nikola
Buble, a well-known Croatian ethnomusicologist, the authors
present an authentic analytical model (within the cultural and
anthropological authorial approach) constructed in the function
of researching more complex musical phenomena, but mostly in
the contexts of ethnomusicological or broader unique monographic
material (which contains numerous heterogeneous data from
a number of different types of archives, documentations, newspapers,
personalized diaries written, audio, visual and similar specific
types). It is the qualitative methodology that critically and
pluralistically considers research phenomena, and enables ethnomusicologists
to more successfully integrate those interdisciplinary
moments that are affirmed in various biographical, historical and
similar studies, as well as numerous other cultural dimensions by
which musical phenomena can be more adequately understand
and interpreted, and thanks to which scientific knowledge about
musical phenomena can be enriched.
