Contemplating Music and the Boundaries of Identity: Attitudes and Opinions Regarding the Effect of Ottoman Turkish Contact on Bulgarian and Macedonian Folk Musics	2021	21	.pdf	application/pdf	8151	406	52	Nevertheless, between 1952 and 1966, the eminent Bulgarian scholar Nikolai Kaufman managed to take time from his engagement with the collection and study of Bulgarian village song to research and write a book about Bulgarian urban song. Even if such editorial bowdlerizing was practiced, however, it apparently was not enough to “redeem” urban song in Kaufman’s eyes: as expressed in his book, Kaufman’s opinion is that Bulgarian urban song is on the whole poorer than Bulgarian village song, exhibiting as it does less musical and textual diversity, less amenability to flexible treatment, and ultimately less polish as a result of not undergoing continual communal re-creation.	cache/folklorica-3767.pdf	txt/folklorica-3767.txt
