The Institute of Ethnomusicology (GNI) is the oldest institute within the Scientific Research Centre of the Slovene Academy of Sciences and Arts. Founded in 1934, initially as the Folklore Institute, it was affiliated to SAZU in 1972 as a section of the Institute of Slovene Ethnology. Since 1994, the year the Sound Archive was founded, GNI has been an autonomous institute of ZRC SAZU, comprising a Department of Ethnomusicology, a Department of Textology, a Department of Ethnochoreology and a [[Sound Archive and Studio.
