Bosnian root music (izvorna bosanska muzika) is polyphonic type of singing. Now it is the most popular form of rural music in Bosnia only. The singers are usually followed by violin dvojnice and šargija. It is connected to ganga and ravne pjesme which are also characteristic for Bosnia and Herzegovina. The root of the music is unknown but some characteristics like different temperament from the standard music suggest it is an old type of music.
