  • 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).

  • Draft List of Terms for Supplemental Unit and Activities Unit
    Further Research for Turkish Music The modern Republic of Turkey is in a part of the world that has been home to many groups of people. Coastal Anatolia was home to the ancient city of Troy, the Greek colonies in Ionia, and the Byzantine Empire, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire. At its largest, the Ottoman Empire included parts of North Africa, Eastern Europe, Anatolia, and a large area of the Middle East, including Mecca and Medina in the Arabian Peninsula. Because the Ottomans allowed the different peoples living under the Sultan to keep their culture and Religion, they kept their identities. Because of this, people from all of these areas are still living in modern Turkey. Istanbul, the largest and most cosmopolitan city, has populations of Turks, Greeks, Kurds, Arabs, Armenians, Persians, Roma, and Bulgarians, just to name a few. Music is an excellent window into the culture and society of a particular people, or in this case a particular area. We can use many of the topics that come up in talking about music to expand our knowledge of the people who play the music in addition to the music itself. Here, we will explore some of the important terms that came up when we looked at a few of the instruments in Turkey. Some important questions to ask about music and music making: This list is far from complete. It is a good example of the kinds of questions we can ask about music to learn more about it. What: What is the music for? What does the music sound like? What do the players and audiences find important about the music? Who:

IAS34.com• The science of music called the Gandharva Veda is an Upaveda of the Sama Veda. • Sarangadeva, a 13th century musicologist wrote the classic text on music, the Sangeet Ratnakara. The Sangeet Ratnakara defined about 264 ragas including some from the North Indian and the Dravidian repertoires. Its greatest contribuCon was to idenCfy and describe the various ‘microtones’ and classify them into different categories. • Dhrupad and Khayal are the two forms of classical singing that are popular today. Out of them, Dhrupad is certainly older, which took proper shape in medieval era, replacing the ancient Prabandha. It is really not sure about the beginning of the Khayal. The word is alien and means 'imaginaCon'. It is more lyrical than the dhrupad.

  • Script Listening Program 3
    Non-Directed Music Listening Program Series III Non-Directed Music Listening Program Script Series III Week 1 Composer: Ludwig von Beethoven (1770 – 1827) Composition: Minuet in G, No. 2 Performance: Philadelphia Orchestra, Eugene Ormandy Recording: CBS Masterworks Dinner Classics: The Viennese Album CBS MFK 45545 Day 1: This week’s listening selection is “Minuet in G, No. 2” by Ludwig von Beethoven. A minuet is a graceful dance. A man greets his partner with a bow then, hand-in- hand, leads her through a series of smooth and delicate movements. It is the small steps and gestures that give the dance its name – minuet which comes from a word that means small or minute. This is quite a contrast to the popular dances of today – such as Texas Line Dancing. Day 2: This week we are listening to Ludwig von Beethoven’s “Minuet in G, No. 2”. Between the 1600’s and the 1800’s, the minuet was the most popular dance in which ladies and gentlemen of the court gracefully moved through a series of small but intricate steps. You were not allowed membership in the king or queen’s court unless you had memorized the steps and patterns to the many different minuets. Today as you listen, think about all the dance moves you know. Would they fit with the music? Can you imagine how the men and women looked as they glided effortlessly across the polished floors? Day 3: This week’s listening excerpt is “Minuet in G, No. 2” written by the famous German composer, Ludwig von Beethoven.
