Abstract

This study investigates the connection between folklore and music, emphasizing the impact of folk songs on professional musical composition. It explores how traditional melodies, rhythms, and thematic material have inspired composers across various periods and genres, helping to shape national musical identities and drive artistic innovation. The research examines how elements of folk music are adapted, stylized, and incorporated into both classical and contemporary works, reflecting the cultural heritage and collective memory of different communities. By examining key examples from global and regional musical traditions, the paper demonstrates how the integration of folklore into professional music aids in preserving, reinterpreting, and evolving cultural traditions within modern artistic practice.
