Acoustical communication. How the traditional music has become the expression of the minority

The research provides insights into the practice of singing the microtonal songs from the specific part of a Croatian region –Istria. The interpretations are analyzed, taking in account that sound environment creates human acoustic experience. Considering nowadays modern sound environment that is taken up by tonal music (equal-temperament tuning), it is interesting to know if singing of microtonal music suffers from that condition. The research help us to understand today's experience of traditional music providing the results of the analysis of several interpretations of traditional songs, e.g. the interval relationships of two-part singing are expressed in digitally measured frequencies.
