Music and Time Annotation << Back «Song Сalendar» in the Oral Traditional Culture of Polesye and Ponemanye Frontier (Locus of White, Black and Sporovskoye Lakes) A.I. Danilovich (Viktorchik) In the paper the «song calendar» of the locus of White, Black and Sporovskoye lakes is considered. Genre morphology and melogeography of the agricultural cycle songs are covered, the song calendar tradition’s originality which is caused by the frontier nature of this area is defined. There are features which detach and mark out the calendar song traditions of Lakes White, Black and Sporovskoje territories as a special style locus (independent coexistance of the genre, typological, musical and stylistical characteristics, typical of the Ponemon on the one hand, and on the other ‑ of the Polesje). The author describes a new quality and cultural generalization in the zone of two ethnocultural formations crossing which allows the calendar song traditions of Lakes White, Black and Sporovskoje to be considered as a deep and self-dependent.
