  • A History of Siamese Music Reconstructed from Western Documents 1505-1932
    A HISTORY OF SIAMESE MUSIC RECONSTRUCTED FROM WESTERN DOCUMENTS 1505-1932 This content downloaded from 96.9.90.37 on Thu, 04 Feb 2021 07:36:11 UTC All use subject to https://about.jstor.org/terms Introduction The writing of music history, the chief activity of the musicologist, depends almost entirely on the existence of written documents. Historical studies of various musics of the world have appeared wherever there are such documents: Europe, China, Japan, Korea, India, and in the Islamic cultural area of Western Asia and North Africa. Mainland Southeast Asia, however, has remained much of a musico-historical void since little has remained besides oral traditions and a few stone carvings, although Vietnamese music is an exception to this statement. The fact that these countries have so few trained musicologists also contributes to the lack of research. In the case of the Kingdom of Thailand, known before 1932 as Siam, little has been attempted in the way of music history in languages other than Thai, and those in Thai, also not plentiful, remain unknown to the outside world.l Only the European-trained Prince Damrong has attempted a comprehensive history, but it is based as much on tradition and conjecture as on concrete evidence and is besides quite brief. David Morton's classic study of Thai traditional music, The Traditional Music of Thailand, includes some eighteen pages of history, mostly based on oral traditions, conjecture, circumstantial evidence from neighboring musical cultures (Cambodia, China, and India), and some from the same documents used in this study. At least three reasons can be given for the lack of historical materials originating in Thailand.

  • Narong Prangcharoen and Thai Cross-Cultural Fusion in Contemporary Composition
    NARONG PRANGCHAROEN AND THAI CROSS-CULTURAL FUSION IN CONTEMPORARY COMPOSITION A THESIS IN Musicology Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF MUSIC by NATHINEE CHUCHERDWATANASAK B.A.(Music), Mahidol University, 2007 M.M., Eastern Michigan University, 2009 Kansas City, Missouri 2014 NARONG PRANGCHAROEN AND THAI CROSS-CULTURAL FUSION IN CONTEMPORARY COMPOSITION Nathinee Chucherdwatanasak, Candidate for Master of Music Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2014 ABSTRACT Narong Prangcharoen (b.1973) has become one of the leading Asian classical composers since he won a number of international awards and received numerous commissions from major orchestras and individual distinguished musicians. His compositions, most of which include distinct Thai musical elements and Thai cultural influences within the guise of Western art music, are emblematic of a trend in contemporary composition that embraces worldwide influences. This thesis is a first step toward the literature of this compositional trend of Thai/Western musical fusion. It begins with a survey to different approaches of applying exotic elements into Western compositions, focusing on the fusion of Western and Far Eastern musical/non-musical elements of China and Indonesia. The focus then shifts to the cross-cultural interplay between Thai and Western elements that has appeared throughout Thai music history. The main topic of thesis ensues, with the presentation of Prangcharoen’s musical background, his creative process, and his synthesis of Thai influences and Western compositional techniques in his orchestral music. The purpose of this thesis is to be not only a principal source in iii apprehending Prangcharoen’s life and works, but also a foundation for any future study relating to Prangcharoen or other Thai composers and their compositions.

    Abstract This study was conducted by means of the qualitative research methodology and ethnomusicology with the aims to 1) investigate the history of Mark-Kub-Kab, and 2) explore the roles of Mark-Kub-Kab in Isan cultural performing arts. The findings revealed the following: 1) “Mark-Kub-Kab” is a percussion instrument made of hardwood and featured in 2 varieties: short and long. Its history has not been evidently documented. The performance has no fixed pattern, depending more on occasions and the performers’ wits and improvisation. Mark-Kub-Kab is played in traditional local festivals and has been integrated into Isan cultural performing arts such as Mor Lam Klon, Nang Pramothai (Isan shadow play), Mor Lam Plern, and Pong Lang bands. 2) Mark-Kub-Kab features in 5 types of performances: 1) Local performances, 2) Mor Lam Klon performances, 3) Nang Pramothai performances, 4) Lam Plern performances, and 5) Pong Lang performances. Keywords: Mark-Kub-Kab, folk performance Introduction Isan musical instruments can be divided into plucked string instruments, bowed string instruments, percussion instruments and woodwind instruments. These instruments are played for entertainment as well as in rituals according to the beliefs of the local people in different areas. Percussion instruments, in particular, have played a role that is closely connected to the lives of Isan people from the olden days. For example, an instrument in the shape of a wooden stick (Kroh) was drummed as a call for a meeting or a signal for news, and a drum was used as a military signal to call for an army before a battle, as a signal of a meeting, and as an announcement of news.

  • The Myth of Equidistance in Thai Tuning
    The Myth of Equidistance in Thai Tuning John Garzoli INTRODUCTION ESTERN and Thai Scholars of Thai music generally accept that Thai classical Wmusic (phleng Thai doem) is based on a seven-tone equidistant tuning system which is sometimes called 7-tet (7-tone equal tempered). According to this theory, Thai tuning is defined by an ideal interval of 171.429 cents. This understanding stems from an encounter in London in 1885 between the noted mathematician Alexander J. Ellis, and a senior Siamese diplomat, Prince Prisdang. Despite persistent doubts about this theory, it has not been seriously questioned and no alternative explanations have been put forward to challenge the assumption that Ellis’s theory is accurate and comprehensive. This article identifies problems with the theory of equidistance and shows that the widespread acceptance of the theory and its ideal interval is misplaced because it is incorrect to say that Thai music is based on the equidistant division of the harmonic octave into seven intervals. I will point out problems with the theory that stem from its formulation. I will draw attention to empirical research that shows instruments are not tuned to 171.429.1 I will show that tuners do not consider the theoretical interval when tuning, and show that the theory overlooks certain tuning concepts and practices that are central to Thai music. Although I will discuss the mathematical formulations that have been used to describe Thai tuning, the theoretical orientation of this article is primarily informed by concepts that circulate within the discipline of ethnomusicology. These aim to describe and explain the details of musical systems in terms that reflect the concepts and practices of those who perform and listen to the music.
