摘要：Folk music (both traditional and contemporary) is the subject matter of ethnomusicology. It consists of a set of musical facts which ethnomusicology observes and records, classifies, theoretically interprets, and explains in terms of certain conclusions. Since the facts of folk music stand in a very definite relationship with certain social facts — often actually dependent on, or conditioned by, these social facts — ethnomusicology should be joined by sociology in at¬tempting to solve vital issues of relationship between folk music and society. At some point in the future, this whole problem area should form the subject of study by sociology of music. Conversely, some folk music phenomena can stimulate sociological investigations, with ethnomusicological research raising certain sociological issues. Though ethno-musicology (and folkloristics) views the phenomena under observation within the context of social situation (regardless of whether this is done thoroughly or superficially), only sociology of music is capable of their in-depth study and analysis, classification and typological arrangement, starting from a systematic and comparative study of social determinants and musical elements.
