Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This thesis is a contribution towards an historically informed understanding of contemporary music making amongst Roma in Ostrava, Czech Republic. It also challenges, from a theoretical perspective, conceptions of relationships between music and discourses of ‘race’. My research is based on fieldwork conducted in Ostrava, between August 2003 and July 2004 and East Slovakia in July 2004, as well as archival research in Ostrava and Vienna. These fieldwork experiences compelled me to explore music and ideas of ‘race’ through discourses of diaspora in order to assist in conceptualising and interpreting Romani music making in Ostrava. The vast majority of Roma in Ostrava are post-World War II emigres or descendants of emigres from East Slovakia. In contemporary Ostrava, most Roma live on the socio­ economic margins and are most often regarded as a separate ‘race’ with a separate culture from the dominant population.

Abstract “’Perverting the Taste of the People’: Lăutari and the Balkan Question in Ro- mania” considers the term “Balkan” in the context of Romanian Romani mu- sic-making. The expression can be used pejoratively to describe something “bar- baric” or fractured. In the “world music” era, “gypsy-inspired” music from the Balkans has become highly regarded. From this perspective “Balkan” is seen as something desirable. The article uses the case of the Romanian “gypsy” band Taraf de Haïdouks in illustration. Romania’s cultural and physical position with- in Europe can be difficult to locate, a discourse reflected in Romanian society itself, where many reject the description of Romania as a “Balkan” country. This conflict has been contested throughmanele , a Romanian popular musical genre. In contrast, manele is seen by its detractors as too “eastern” in character, an unwel- come reminder of earlier Balkan and Ottoman influences on Romanian culture. Keywords: Balkan(s), Romania, alterity, exotic, oriental, Ottoman, manele, lăutari, “gypsy”, Turkish, Roma, Romani, “world music”, subaltern. 1 [email protected] 86 МУЗИКОЛОГИЈА / MUSICOLOGY 29-2020 Апстракт „’Извитоперење укуса људи’: Lăutari и балканско питање у Румунији“ студија је у којој се разматра појам „Балкан“ у контексту музичке продукције румунских Рома.

  • The Music of the Roma in Hungary
    Data » Music » Countries » The music of the Roma in Hungary http://romani.uni-graz.at/rombase The music of the Roma in Hungary Katalin Kovalcsik Traditionally there are two kinds of music performed by the Roma: one is musical service rendered for non-Romani audiences, the other is music made within the Romani community. The music played for outsiders is labelled "Gypsy music" by Hungarian scientific literature having adopted its colloquial name, and the music they use among themselves is called "folk music". At the same time, the Roma began gradually to develop an ethnic music culture from the 1970s. The process of creating the institutional conditions for the practising, improvement and presentation of their own culture picked up momentum when after the great political turn they obtained national minority status. In the following, I first give a sketchy summary of the two traditional cultural modes, before listing the main tendencies asserted in today's Romani music life in Hungary. The table below shows the Romani ethnic groups in Hungary and their traditional occupations (after Kemény 1974). The major ethnic groupings of the Roma living in Hungary The name of the First language Proportion according to Traditional occupations grouping (in brackets their first language their own name) within the Romani population, in % Hungarian (romungro) Hungarian ca 71 music making in musician dynasties, metal-working, brick-making, agricultural labour etc. Vlach (vlašiko) Romani- Hungarian ca 21 metal-working, sieve-making, horse-dealing, trading etc. Boyash (băiaş) Romanian- Hungarian ca 8 wood-working (tubs, spoons, other wooden household utensils) Slovak (serviko) Romani- Hungarian No data.
