The paper presents fndings regarding the role of music in the community
and teachings of the Slovak contemporary Pagan leader Žiarislav, based
on ethnographic research carried out between 2016 and 2018. The paper
discusses three inter-related themes: (a) the role of music in the community
of Žiarislav’s followers, (b) the role of Žiarislav’s music in the process of
shaping modern Pagan identity, and (c) music as an instrument for the
spreading of alternative or dissenting ideas. The conclusions are based on
an anthropological investigation into the lives and music-related customs
of Žiarislav’s followers. The paper also explores the signifcance of music
in Žiarislav’s spiritual teachings. Research into modern Pagan music is
a thriving feld, and all such research assists with an understanding of
a living form of modern Slovak Paganism. It also represents an ideal
research space for the study of strategies regarding the (re-)actualization
of Slovak national identity among modern Pagans in Slovakia, one pillar
of which is traditional Slovak folk culture, including music.
