There were four published editions of piano arrangements of Slovak folk songs by domestic (Slovak) composers (M. Sucháň 1830; V. Füredy 1837; M. Francisci 1892, 1893; A. Piťo – J. N. Polášek 1905, 1906) in the period from the 1830s to the early years of the 20th century. The aim was to define typologically the song repertoire which composers’ worked on (models and their selection), to elucidate the editions of arrangements of Slovak folk songs for piano (publishers, authors, compositional processing), and to identify the sociocultural period associations of these editions, from the ethnomusicologist’s point of view. A hypothesis was tested, regarding to what extent the printed editions of piano arrangements of Slovak folk songs influenced the codification of a certain core repertoire in Slovakia and contributed thus towards forming the national identity of Slovaks.
The article deals with Albrecht Duerer's relations to Eastern Europe - direct and indirect dealings of the Nuremberg based artist with artists and patrons from Poland and Prussia to Hungary and Romania. The essay is intended merely as an introduction to the topic and to some of the issues the subject raises, for example Nuremberg's international business ties, direct links to Eastern European patrons (e.g. Johannes Thurzo, bishop of Breslau), influence of Duerer's prints (e.g. on the Apocalyptic Virgin and Child Epitaph, c. 1520 (?), now in the Slovak National Gallery in Bratislava), activities of Nuremberg's artists in Eastern Europe (e.g. Veit Stoss in Krakow) or questions of the collectible Duerer (e.g. Feast of the Rose Garland obtained by the emperor Rudolf II in 1606).
