Modern Folk Music in Slovenia I (KD FS CD 01) Modern Folk Music in Slovenia I 
PrefaceFolk Slovenia Cultural Society Society for Folk Music Tradition in the Slovenian Ethnic Sphere An initiative group comprised of Nenad Firšt, Drago Kunej and Roman Ravnič, publicly promoted in Celje on 1st December 1995 an idea of establishing a society bearing a working name of Folk Slovenia which was to bring together active groups and individuals - folk singers and fiddlers, interpreters of Slovenian folk music and others engaged in conserving, studying, teaching or popularizing Slovenian folk music heritage. Presented at the meeting were also the basic guidelines of the Society's future activities which in the subseqent Statute were shaped into its actual goals, namely: association of vocal-fiddling groups and individuals, care for their qualitative and quantitative growth, assertion and exploitation of folklore sources, of the latter's material and musical instruments in the performing practice, education and formation of new generations of members and listeners through counselling, organization of courses, workshops, lectures and promotions, by collecting acoustic and other material, exchanging opinions and by cultivating a mature, responsible and sincere attitude to folklore heritage, folk song and music in particular. The Society functions as an organization in culture and for the purpose of culture, participates in and organizes festivals and other events. It maintains contact and collaborates with similar societies, organizations and institutions at home and abroad. On the very occasion of the founding convention in Piran in June 1996, the Society started putting its plans into practice; it organized a much publicized concert of folk fiddlers and performers of folk music from Slovenia and the neighbouring countries. The event was quite a success; it has meanwhile developed into an already traditional meeting of the Society members - fiddlers and singers appearing either as soloists or together with similar native or foreign groups at a public concert organized on a yearly basis. Special attention has been dedicated to the organization of discussions, lectures and workshops on folk music. A series of discussions on folk music held by the Society and external collaborators were intended to spotlight different views on folk music, learn about its present andPast, about the ways of its being interpreted and presented on stage, and to call attention to the copyrights of folk music performers. Well received were also instrumental and vocal workshops organized by the Society for the benefit of both its members and the general public. Soon after being established, the Folk Slovenia put into life its ambition for a uniform and complex presentation of the Society to the public. We initially decided on written promotional material that was to be subsequently supported by an acoustic supplement - a musical presentation of those Society members that perform and interpret folk music. Furthermore, our musical activities were to be documented and displayed in a more complex manner - on acoustic carriers - which led to an idea of a series of acoustic publications to illustrate the activities, development and changes in our Society as a whole and of its members as individuals. What we have before us is our first joint acoustic publication. It is comprised of shorter presentations of groups and soloists, i.e. Society members who prepared and recorded, and some even published, their contributions even before the foundation of the Society. Some members are being introduced anew, under a different angle than in the past. The present publication is in fact a sure sign of a lively and successful initial period of the Society, resulting from joint efforts of all members on a voluntary basis, as well as our amateur meetings and collaboration - all of which being sheer enjoyment and need at the same time.
