Festivals and the sustainability of the intangible culture, music and dance

Initiated in 1935 as one of the first folklore festivals in Croatia, the Krk Festival has shown itself to be one of the important venues for prominently featuring the identity symbols of the Krk island communities. Since 1966 the International Folklore Festival has been held in Zagreb with the objective to affirm the status of the traditional culture of its numerous participants. It has become part of the global movement led by UNESCO that aims to safeguard intangible cultural heritage. The paradigms of the Festival have been changed through time according to political and social circumstances. Can we speak about the sustainability of music and dance thanks to the festivals through the years? Do thematic concerts offer more possibilities for sustainability of music and dance? What kind of ecosystems do we have today and how do local communities respond in music and dance production?
