What three things does this CD example tell us about Podhale in the late 20th and early 21st century?
What will be an ideal response?
- (A) Podhale is no longer an isolated cultural region (if it ever was).
- (B) Ancient stories and legends "from Slovokia and Poland can be reinterpreted and given modern meaning."
- (C) Themes such as the human desire for independence are probably universal, but no single music is universal. The theme was common in both the reggae and Górale cultures, but the respective musical practices were different and quite distinct. The successful fusion of the two music-cultures came later when the two bands learned to play together live.
