[+] Vaughan Williams, Ralph. "The Folk Song Movement." In National Music and Other Essays, ed. Michael Kennedy, 234-36. 2nd ed. London and New York: Oxford University Press, 1987.

The use of folk song by Russian and other nationalist composers is nothing new. The music of the Austro-German tradition is just as similar to Teutonic folk song as that of other traditions is to their folk origins, but because of its dominance of the classical music scene, does not sound folklike to the general audience.
