Sažetak
Ojkanje is generic term for the type of archaic singing that characterizes a specific way of voice shaking achieved through a special technique of singing ‘from the throat’. The term ojkanje also reffers to the musical system of archaic (starovinski, starinski), traditional singing and playing of Croatian Dinaric regions – the regions of Dalmatian hinterland (Ravni Kotari, Bukovica, Dalmatinska Zagora, Sinjska Krajina, Imotska krajina). Due to the decreased number of skilled performers some of the genres have disappeared forever, and now we at least have to opportunity to document the current situation on the field in order to enable the new generation of singers to come in contact with the ‘documented’ tradition. This process of documenting the performances of the still living master-singers, and the discussions on the repertoire, singing techniques, the ways of improvisation of music and lyrics as well as different performative situations, are essential for urgent and studious intervention which would momentarily impede the further disappearance of the specific forms of this musical expression.
