  • The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a New Look at Musical Instrument Classification
    The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a new look at musical instrument classification by Roderic C. Knight, Professor of Ethnomusicology Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, © 2015, Rev. 2017 Introduction The year 2015 marks the beginning of the second century for Hornbostel-Sachs, the venerable classification system for musical instruments, created by Erich M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs as Systematik der Musikinstrumente in 1914. In addition to pursuing their own interest in the subject, the authors were answering a need for museum scientists and musicologists to accurately identify musical instruments that were being brought to museums from around the globe. As a guiding principle for their classification, they focused on the mechanism by which an instrument sets the air in motion. The idea was not new. The Indian sage Bharata, working nearly 2000 years earlier, in compiling the knowledge of his era on dance, drama and music in the treatise Natyashastra, (ca. 200 C.E.) grouped musical instruments into four great classes, or vadya, based on this very idea: sushira, instruments you blow into; tata, instruments with strings to set the air in motion; avanaddha, instruments with membranes (i.e. drums), and ghana, instruments, usually of metal, that you strike. (This itemization and Bharata’s further discussion of the instruments is in Chapter 28 of the Natyashastra, first translated into English in 1961 by Manomohan Ghosh (Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, v.2). The immediate predecessor of the Systematik was a catalog for a newly-acquired collection at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels. The collection included a large number of instruments from India, and the curator, Victor-Charles Mahillon, familiar with the Indian four-part system, decided to apply it in preparing his catalog, published in 1880 (this is best documented by Nazir Jairazbhoy in Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology – see 1990 in the timeline below).

  • Bow in Oxford Music Online
    14.3.2011 BowinOxfordMusicOnline Oxford Music Online Grove Music Online Bow article url: http://www.oxfordmusiconline.com:80/subscriber/article/grove/music/03753 Bow (Fr. archet ; Ger. Streichbogen ; It. arco ). A flexible stick of wood or a tube (bamboo) held under tension by a string or strings, usually of horsehair, used to draw sound from a string instrument. I. History of the bow 1. Origins. The use of the bow can be traced back to the 10th century, when the bow was known throughout Islam and in the Byzantine empire. No evidence has been found either in the parts of Europe not then under Byzantine or Arab rule, or in eastern and south-eastern Asia, of string instruments which were bowed before the year 1000. Theories of a north European or Indian origin for the bow have proved groundless. The bow is frequently mentioned in 10th-century literature and is clearly depicted in a number of illustrations. The majority of references in Arabic literature come from important scholars and competent authorities on music, such as Al-Fārābī, Ibn Sīnā, Ibn Zayla and Ibn Khaldūn. In connection with the classification of chordophones ‘whose strings are made to sound by rubbing them with other strings [ awtār ] or a string-like fabric’, these writers mentioned instruments ‘whose notes can be prolonged [ mumtadd ] and combined [ mutta ṣil ] at will’. The available sources indicate that bowing originated in central Asia. At the time, rods for plucking, beating or rubbing the strings were used as well as the bow to produce sound from chordophones. The hypothesis of the central Asian origin of the bow is supported by a mural in the palace of the governor of Khuttal at Hulbuk (now Kurbanshaid, south Tajikistan).
