Remembering the folk music research work of Járdányi Pál (1920–1966) on the 50th anniversary of his death. Born Paulovics Pál, he Hungarianized his name to Járdányi at the age of 18. Járdányi was an Erkel and Kossuth award winning composer, also a music teacher and folk music researcher. There is a music school in Budapest named after him. He is known for his folk music collection work in the Transylvanian village of Kide. His book from 1961, ’Magyar népdaltípusok’ (Hungarian Folk Song Types) is still in use. By Fehér Anikó.
