Why Folk Music ?
Music is an eloquent language that allows us to express what is happening around us in many senses, and to reflect the times and the situation in which we live. It is inseparable from our social, political, economic and cultural reality. At an individual level, it also permits us to communicate our emotions, sentiments and life experiences, etc., and it has a relevant role in our process of socialization.
Music is a form of communication different from words, though obviously there are many songs whose lyrics strengthen the message that the author wants to express, emphasizing the sense of the song. On the other hand, in instrumental music, some additional reference is necessary, because the music alone isn't able to offer a unique and unambiguous meaning for what is being expressed.
The Functions of Folk Songs
Folk songs are a means of intergenerational communication that allows us to rethink the world of yesterday, of today and of tomorrow, giving us the opportunity to learn from the past. At the same time, they act as a means of intercultural communication. Folk songs can unite people, permit communication, break down barriers, etc. because they iare a powerful means of participation. They are also a means of education, since playing music together we can learn such values and qualities as knowing how to listen and exchange ideas, learning to respect and work with others, and developing solidarity, emotional communication, empathy, etc. on both a musical and human level. Folk songs can inspire such values as solidarity, non-violence, dialogue and unity, and they strengthens feelings of both self-confidence and confidence in others, as well as developing creativity and imagination. These are important factors when struggling to find a successful resolution to conflicts. At the same time, folk songs are also a means of unification, creating a sense of belonging to some greater whole.
Folk songs are sometimes a means of communication which sensitize people who are facing the challenges of the world. The works and songs become witnesses to experienced or imagined events, and, as a source of knowledge, they permit us to construct our own social reality, allowing us as well to reflect upon our surroundings
