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. The foreign institutions most important for GNI's work are the Phonogrammarchiv of the Österreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften, the Institut für Volksmusikforchung and the Österreichische Volksliedwerk, all in Vienna, the Slowenisches Volkskundeinstitut 'Urban Jarnik'/Slovenski narodopisni inštitut 'Urban Jarnik' in Klagenfurt-Celovec, the Magyar Tudományos Akademia in Budapest and the Golda Meir Library in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The Institute incorporates a Sound Archive and Studio which houses extensive recordings of the folk music of Slovenia, other South Slavic nations and other European and non-European nations.
