This article is devoted to researching and characterising the arrangements (especially in the area of harmony) of the Slovak folk songs which were selected and compositionally processed for vocal and piano by the Russian composer Vladimir Rebikov (1866 – 1920) at the turn of the 20th century. The set of 25 song arrangements confirms that the composer accomplished his creative processing on the lines of his own artistic principles. What this involved was an extension and embellishment of the harmonic course, which despite its modernity remained within the bounds of the tonal or modal thinking typical for extended tonality and for a modality tending towards musical impressionism. The usual connection of the content of songs to the major key in positively attuned songs, with minor solutions where the contents have a negative or sorrowful sound, is purposefully used in Rebikov’s arrangements. Also typical of the harmonic plan is a cadence progression, with a predominance of sevenths, or modal and unfinished harmonic solutions where they reinforce the significance of the text of the songs.

The acoustic layer of Vladimír Holan´s poetry provides its readers and poetologists with a new semantic potential which must be integrated into the total semantics of the work of art itself. That is why we place proportion of instrumentation of sounds into the centre of Holan´s intentional modification of acoustic layer in his poems. Aim of the article is to find relevant repetitions and sound configurations in the spheres of isolated words, lines of poetry, strophes or collection of poems. We proceed from the assumption that every literary work of art consists of words which are artistically stylized and that it always holds a semantic sign. Furthermore, we try to draw attention, on the basis of a detailed analysis of individual collections of poems, to organization of vocals and consonants and their configurations. We aim to describe the way it becomes, more or less, a self-sufficient element of composition. In the collection of poems Záhřmotí published in 1940 the importance of status of sound orchestration is the most serious in comparison with Holan´s other works. Here, the cacophony effects dominate and through their abstract character they fill and substitute semantic gaps in a fictitious space-time of poems in Záhřmotí.
Relying on the monograph of J. Štolc “The Speech of Slovaks in Yugoslavia”, which has become our methodological model and the main source of the study of selected issues, we present the results of our own field research conducted during the past years in the Slovak enclave in Serbia. In this paper, we focus on the vocal system of Slovak dialects in Serbia, by analysing the sound recordings of linguistic expressions, made by autochthonous representatives of dialects of Slovak origin. By comparing the current results of the research with the findings of this linguist, we try to reveal the changes that have occurred in the structure of the studied dialects since the time of his research, as well as to find other features confirming the previous findings.
