Summary/Abstract: Bartók’s research on Slovak folk music and its relationship with Hungarian folk music is accessible today. The present article aims to provide an overview of Kodály’s work, findings, views and some of questions he posed regarding these topics. The majority of the relevant data can be found in the Kodály Archives in the form of manuscripts, but the processing work is yet to be completed. Along with a few academic statements, several relevant comments are included in Kodály’s handwritten notes, which were subsequently published by Lajos Vargyas.
