When asked Which songs in the dialect of the County of Istria do you know (if you do not
know the title of the song name a verse or a chorus line), the examinees named songs
familiar to them which they, as in the previous question, classified to entertainment or art
songs. The survey results show a disproportion in the knowledge of Istrian composers and
Istrian songs. Thus, for instance, a lower number of students knew the composer Slavko
Zlatiæ (1.6 %), but more were familiar with his song Bi i, bi i maglina (4 %). Students
from Istria (21.6 %) named some of the songs from the book of songs Èakavsko-
primorska pjevanka: 128 dvoglasnih èakavskih melodija za omladinu za sviju vrsti škola
(2005)5 by Ivan Matetiæ Ronjgov, but a smaller number of examinees (5.6 %) were
familiar with the composer. Students from other counties (35.7 %) showed a better
knowledge of songs from the mentioned book of songs, while half of them mentioned the
composer (19.1 %). Their statements about the knowledge of the mentioned songs are not
surprising since they are studied at the course Music Methodology. Only 4 % of
questioned examinees from Istria mentioned songs of the Italian national minority
repertoire like, for example, La mula de Parenzo and Da Trieste fino a Zara, which belong
both to the Italian tradition and to the Istrian regional heritage.
In their answers to the third question Which traditional customs in your county do you
know (for students from Istria) and Which traditional customs of the county you study in do
you know (for students from other counties), students from Istria named balun (33.6 %),
carnivals (16.8 %), folklore festivals (10.4 %), characteristic folk costumes (7.2 %),
traditional crafts in general (6.4 %), instruments (4 %), the festival Melodies from Istria
and Kvarner (3.2 %), while folk songs and playing traditional instruments were named by
only a few students (1.6 %). Regarding Istrian traditions, students from other counties
mostly named balun (13.9 %), Istrian folk dances in general (12 %) and carnivals (8.7 %),
while folk songs were named by 2.2 % of students or 0.6 % more than students from the
County of Istria. Except for the music customs, examinees also mentioned holiday
traditions, life customs, various folk festivities and the enogastronomic tradition.
In the last open-ended question, examinees had to name Istrian instruments they were
familiar with.
