Definition of undefined

The term "folk music" is a relatively recent invention, dating back to the early 20th century. It evolved from the term "folk song," which was used in the 19th century to describe traditional songs passed down orally. The modern use of "folk music" arose from a desire to distinguish this traditional music from the increasingly popular "art music" of the time. It emphasized the community-based origins and oral transmission of the music, often played on simple instruments like guitars and banjos.
