Néprajz - Dulainé Madarász Annamária: Zenei hagyaték Szászfenesről. Az 1983-as és 1986-os gyűjtésű szászfenesi zenei hagyaték bemutatása

Zenei hagyaték Szászfenesröl "Keserves" (grievous song), "Hajnali" (dawn song), "Invertita", "Halotti mars" (Funeral march) and "Menyasszonykísérő" (bride's escorting song). As they are typically accompanied by dance, we have to look over the dances as well, which are connected to them and the circumstances associated with them. In Szászfenes the national characteristics became manifest in the dance culture of different peoples in the 18 t h and 19 , h century. Dances followed each other in a determined order that is what we call "dance cycle" or "dance or­der". One dance cycle includes 3 to 5 dances but of course there were breaks between them. Another characteristic of the dance order is that the more archaic dances appear at the beginning, they are followed by the new ones and at the end the older dances appear again. The dances which followed each other often adjusted musically too. The dance cycles of the peoples in the Carpathian Basin are always introduced by a men's dance, which was followed by couple dances. In order to integrate the values of the tradition into the present and future culture and to make them pervade the everyday life of people it is necessary to have the initiatives to preserve and create traditions, which aim on the one hand to safeguard the old traditions and to fill them up with new content on the other hand and by these means to revive the specific tradition. Naturally, these expectations pose a challenge for the musicians, folk musicians as well, since we have to provide help for the progress of scientific research and for the cultivation and continuation of folk tradition. The above concisely presented musical material is a highly valuable part of our spiritual heritage.
