Abstract
The bag-pipes tradition of the Croats in Baranya, in Hungary and in Croatia appears as a special phenomenon in the national traditional music not only by the Croats but in the whole Carpathian basin. The emergence of three various wind-instruments with bellows, the question of their spread and function in the entire national culture has not been sufficiently researched in ethnographical reference resources of the above-mentioned countries. One of the best pieces of evidence is a book written by Bozidar Sirola about instruments with jacks (1937 Zagreb) where there is not a word about Baranya bag-pipes and bag-pipers and
also no mention of five-voiced bellows bag-pipes among instruments.
Based on long-term field observations, research and the collected data of musical valuable collections (Mohacs, Pecs, Osijek, Budapest, Zagreb) that are stored in the museums we attempt to offer descriptions of various instrument types and create a cultural-ethnographical map as well as a bag-pipe musical culture map, determining centre and peripheries spaces from our point of view and also spread directions of various instrument types.
