Rather than academic research papers, T the students’ articles are works of well-informed investigative journalism. Topics are cho- sen in consultation with Prof. Lamas and Begoña Calatrava, and involve demanding fi rst-hand fi eld- work in Granada. A number of interviews with locals are required to have the project approved. Students are requested to fi nd their own sources and to create an adequate network of contacts to fully understand the chosen subject matter. The articles are the result of a thoughtful teamwork and have been originally written in Spanish. The opinions expressed in this publication fall under the exclusive responsibility of their respective authors, and do not necessarily refl ect the views of the course, the faculty member, or the team of editors.

  • A Look at the History of Instrumental Performance
    Turkish Journal of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation; 32(3) ISSN 2651-4451 | e-ISSN 2651-446X A LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF INSTRUMENTAL PERFORMANCE Haydarov Azizbek1, Talaboyev Azizjon2, Madaminov Siddiqjon3, Mamatov Jalolxon4 1,2,3,4Fergana Regional Branch of Uzbekistan State Institute of Arts and Culture [email protected], [email protected]. [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT This article tells about the emergence and development of Uzbek folk music and instrumental performance in Central Asia. There are many legends about the creation of musical instruments. One of such legends is cited by musicologist B.Matyokubov. According to the narrations, the instruments of Tanbur, Dutor, Nay, and Gijjak are the four angels may be due to their efforts, namely, the messenger angel Gabriel, the angel Michael who moves the world, the angel Isrofil who blows the trumpet in the Hereafter, and the angel of death in the body of Adam. According to musicians and craftsmen, they took mulberry wood from heaven to make instruments. From the above it can be concluded that our national instruments were formed before and during our era, and some of them still retain their appearance, albeit partially. Keywords: music, instrument, circle, tanbur, rubob, ud, melody. In the book of President Islam Karimov "High spirituality is an invincible force" The book proudly acknowledges the discovery of a bone flute along with gold and bronze objects in a woman's grave in the village of Muminabad near Samarkand, which has a unique musical culture in the Bronze Age. The circular circle-shaped instrument found in the Saymalitosh rock drawings on the Fergana mountain range and depicted among the participants of the ceremony is also believed to date back to the 2nd century BC.

    ENGLISH P. 2 DEUTSCH S. 5 DISCOVER MUSIC FROM Turkey with ARC Music Largely due to Turkey’s situation at the crossroads of Europe, North Africa, The Middle East and Central Asia, its traditional music has influenced – and been influenced by – numerous cultures throughout the ages. Turkey’s strong musical traditions range from its folk and classical repertoire to mosque music and Sufi, among others. Perhaps most famously, the spectacular Whirling Dervishes of the Mevlevi order brought worldwide attention to Turkish Sufi since the 1970s when they began to tour outside of Turkey. This collection highlights various forms of traditional Turkish music. Details of the albums from which these songs are taken follow.

  • • Ud (Also Spelled Oud)
    Oud • Ud (also spelled Oud) [ Picture of Ud ] Description The Ud (Arabic Lute) is the central symbol of Arabic traditional and classical music. It appeared in Central Asia and the Middle East more than 2000 years ago. Its rounded body gives a full, warm sound and its fretless neck allows for quarter tones and sliding effects. It can have a biting staccato attack. The European Lute derives directly from it; in fact, the word Lute is derived from El Ud (the Ud). Tuning The basic Ud has four courses of double strings tuned as follows (concert pitches): (high) string # 1 - c (piano notation: C28) string # 2 - G (G23) string # 3 - D (D18) string # 4 - AA (A13) They will be written an octave higher than their sounding pitches. Scordaturas and Extensions There are several kinds of Uds with different numbers of strings. Other than the 4 basic courses which can be taken as a rule of thumb, stringings and tunings vary, and the composer needs to inquire of the performer as to the tuning and range of his specific instrument. • The 4 string type we take as the basic or 'classical' Ud. • The contemporary 5 string Ud is very common. The fifth string is added below the lowest AA, and is normally tuned to GG (G11); sometimes it is tuned a 4th below the 4th string to EE (E8). Often this fifth string is a single string. Here is the tuning (the basic Ud is in bold): (high) string # 1 - c (C28) string # 2 - G (G23) string # 3 - D (D18) string # 4 - AA (A13) string # 5 - GG (G11) or EE (E8) • There is a 6 string Ud which is tuned in 5 courses of 2 plus one single in the bass end, thus: (high) string # 1 - c (C28) string # 2 - G (G23) string # 3 - D (D18) string # 4 - AA (A13) string # 5 - FF (F9) string # 6 - CC (C4) Oud • There are Uds of 6, 7, and 8, strings which take as their basis the contemporary 5 string Ud, and add strings above the 1st string c (C28).

  • A Geometrical Method for Sound-Hole Size and Location Enhancement in Lute Family Musical Instruments: the Golden Method
    arts Article A Geometrical Method for Sound-Hole Size and Location Enhancement in Lute Family Musical Instruments: The Golden Method Soheil Jafari 1,* and Mohammad Mahdi Karbasbaf 2 1 Department of Engineering and Informatics, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton BN1 9QT, UK 2 Edinburgh College of Art, The University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, EH3 9DF, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-7459-16-14-12 Academic Editor: Ellen Fallowfield Received: 5 May 2017; Accepted: 20 November 2017; Published: 28 November 2017 Abstract: This paper presents a new analytical approach, the Golden Method, to enhance sound-hole size and location in musical instruments of the lute family in order to obtain better sound damping characteristics based on the concept of the golden ratio and the instrument geometry. The main objective of the paper is to increase the capability of lute family musical instruments in keeping a note for a certain time at a certain level to enhance the instruments’ orchestral characteristics. For this purpose, a geometry-based analytical method, the Golden Method is first described in detail in an itemized feature. A new musical instrument is then developed and tested to confirm the ability of the Golden Method in optimizing the acoustical characteristics of musical instruments from a damping point of view by designing the modified sound-hole. Finally, the new-developed instrument is tested, and the obtained results are compared with those of two well-known instruments to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the suggested method is able to increase the sound damping time by at least 2.4% without affecting the frequency response function and other acoustic characteristics of the instrument.

  • Mr. Ho's Orchestrotica (Quintet)
    Mr. Ho’s Orchestrotica Why Present the Quintet Formation? Are you wondering "why this, now"? Do you need teaching artists who offer a unique array of unique educational Are you looking for innovative music, programs and the talent to deliver them but also need to make the show in an engaging way? accessible to your audience? Do you appreciate artists who are Have you sat through too many "heady" responsive, communicate clearly from chamber or jazz concerts where the booking to backstage, and can provide artists don’t connect with your you with the marketing support the community or even speak to them? concert needs to be successful? If so, here are (4) reasons the Quintet might be great! A Story-Driven Method for Audience Connection Storytelling is one of the oldest traditions, and the brain literally lights up and responds differently to stories. As such, the Orchestrotica elegantly weaves narratives into the concert, enabling deeper connections between the artist, audience, and music. Storytelling removes unnecessary barriers and is probably the number one thing audiences repeatedly say they love about the Quintet’s performances. New Sounds, but Accessible If you're looking for "traditional," this is not the group for your series. This is for presenters looking to present "what's new." In fact, the music is so unique in its blending that it has been presented in chamber, contemporary/new music, jazz, and world music series, and the instrumentation is completely unique Seasoned Musicians and Reliable Professionals The performers are all professionally trained musicians who have performed with ensembles ranging from the LA Philharmonic and Boston Symphony Orchestra to Donna Summer, and national Broadway tours.
