* '''klapa'''/ an a cappella form of music <ref>The traditional '''Klapa''' was composed of up to a dozen male singers (in recent times there are ''female'' Klape groups). Klapa singing dates back centuries. The arrival of the Slavic-Croatians to Dalmatia and their subsequent settlement in the area, began the process of the cultural mixing of Slavic culture with that of the traditions of the Roman-Latin population of Dalmatia. This process was most evident in the coastal and island regions of Dalmatia. In the 19th century a standard form of Klapa singing emerged. Church music heavily influences the arrangements of this music giving it the musical form that exists today.</ref> (Venetian:clapa ''"singing crowd"'')
