Throughout this territory, you can trace the presence of several. common types of melodies in decomp. options; the songs of Hungarians, Mari, Chuvash, Khanty and Mansi peoples, Kalmyks and Mongols are characterized by the same rhythmic structure, sometimes the same number of syllables in the text;common is the repetition of the same melody in a lower register, etc. Another type of nar. melodies, more complex in form, are connected partly with the musical folklore of the Finno-Ugric peoples, and partly with the old European. musical traditions (they are typical for children's, playing folk. songs, etc.). This “European” group of melodies differs from the first - pentatonic - in structure (the prevalence of the pentachordal scale) and in the harmonic relation (major-minor). The first information about Hung. Nar storytellers, the so-called tossica, date back to the 10th century. (the name "Igrits" refers to the ancient Hungarian. connection with the glorious culture). They performed epic songs. With the adoption of Christianity (10th c.) And the spread of Gregorian singing in Hungary, the influence of church frets (Phrygian, Aeolian, Mixolidian) on V. increased.
