Summary/Abstract: The field investigation of musical folklore represents the preoccupation of any ethnomusicologist in the course of time. The ethnomusicological research involves a rather difficult task because it has to follow a rather complex path to the end point, starting from field collections, music transcription, selection and classification. The attention of ethnomusicologists is always focused on collecting and researching authentic and unaltered musical material. In order to carry out a correct folklore research, over time, there were used various methods of research and selection of musical creations.
