Folkloristics would probably have a totally different focus. Although I'm not sure what musicology entails, I assume the folkloristics part would be about the culture - the rituals, clothing, signals, maybe even the verbal folklore of the group... their social interaction - although the music would have to be described as well, in the tradition of classical anthropology.
