Through Music, FSU Professor Escapes to Brazil 4D » SUNDAY, JULY 30, 2017 » TALLAHASSEE DEMOCRAT Tallahassee Democrat - 07/30/2017 Copy Reduced to 60% from original to fit letter page Page : D04 TLH LOCAL Through music, FSU professor escapes to Brazil AMANDA SIERADZKI COUNCIL ON CULTURE & ARTS Music sits somewhere within the realms of escape and transcendence for Dr. Michael Bakan, a professor of ethnomusicology at Florida State University. When he sits to play, he feels himself go into a heightened state where the groove of the music moves his head in circles, lurching his body along with its rhythms, eyes closed, face turned upwards. “Sometimes I get teased about how funny I look, and I agree when I see it on video,” laughed Bakan, who’s become particularly transported by Brazilian music and artists. “It has this incredibly deep, rich rhythm and these lush harmonies that go on and on. Where western music revolves around three or four chords, Brazilian composers are able to make har- monic progressions that are ridiculously complex, but are put together in a way that touches you in a basic, emotional place.” Every Tuesday evening at The Blue Tavern, Bakan comes together with a cohort of musicians in the hopes of giving Tallahassee a similarly full experi- ence via their weekly performance: Roda Vibe! Roda, pronounced ‘hoda’ as per its Portuguese origins, translates to circle in the phrase “roda de choro.” Choro is the genre of Brazilian music, often heard in the bars, clubs, or late night venues in Rio de Janiero. As a drummer, Bakan plays a specific role, keeping the beat while letting the music unfold and the other musicians improvise around him. “You’ve heard it if you listened to old American cartoons like Bugs Bunny or Road Runner because they would hire these musicians,” elaborates Bakan. “It combines elements of Brazilian samba with west- ern classical music and jazz. Some of the songs are much more sentimental and dark sounding, but over- all it’s an uplifting music, enjoyable to listen to, and accessible.” As head of the World Music Ensembles Program at FSU, and director of the Sekaa Gong Hanuman Agung Balinese Gamelan and Omnimusica Intercultural ensembles, Bakan’s knowledge and appetite for world music is vast. Recently forming the Bakan-Margut- Hall World Trio, he has also published the textbook “World Music: Traditions and Transformations” that is taught in universities worldwide, and crafted his own definition of the field that focuses on how “peo- ple make and experience music, and why it matters to them that they do.” LEAH BAKAN “Culture has become so complex and hard to pin Bakan, right, stands with pianist Mason Margut and bassist Brian Hall. Together, the three make up the Bakan-Margut-Hall down that it makes a lot more sense to locate the in- World Trio. vestigation on individual people and how they make and experience music,” says Bakan. “I think we al- ways want the primary voice to be the voice of the person who the study is about.” His earliest musical awakening occurred at age three while listening to The Beatles’ “Eight Days a Week,” as the song’s crescendo sent shivers up his spine. A year later his parent’s found a disassembled drum in a local thrift shop. They brought it home and a neighborhood friend helped put it back together. From that point on, Bakan could always be found in his family’s basement, festooned in his Sergeant Pep- If you go per’s suit playing on his first drum kit to whatever Beatles record happened to be on the turntable.

  • Philippine Music Instruments CORAZON CANAVE-DIOQUINO Music Instruments, Mechanisms That Produce Sounds, Have Been Used for Various Purposes
    Philippine Music Instruments CORAZON CANAVE-DIOQUINO Music instruments, mechanisms that produce sounds, have been used for various purposes. In earlier times they were also used as an adjunct to dance or to labor. In later civilizations, instrumental music was used for entertainment. Present day musicological studies, following the Hornbostel-Sachs classification, divide instruments into the following categories: idiophones, aerophones, chordophones, and membranophones. Idiophones Instruments that produce sound from the substance of the instrument itself (wood or metal) are classified as idiophones. They are further subdivided into those that are struck, scraped, plucked, shaken, or rubbed. In the Philippines there are metal and wooden (principally bamboo) idiophones. Metal idiophonse are of two categories: flat gongs and bossed gongs. Flat gongs made of bronze, brass, or iron, are found principally in the north among the Isneg, Tingguian, Kalinga, Bontok, Ibaloi, Kankanai, Gaddang, Ifugao, and Ilonggot. They are most commonly referred to as gangsa . The gongs vary in sized, the average are struck with wooden sticks, padded wooden sticks, or slapped with the palm of the hand. Gong playing among the Cordillera highlanders is an integral part of peace pact gatherings, marriages, prestige ceremonies, feasts, or rituals. In southern Philippines, gongs have a central profusion or knot, hence the term bossed gongs. They are three of types: (1) sets of graduated gongs laid in a row called the kulintang ; (2) larger, deep-rimmed gongs with sides that are turned in called agung , and (3) gongs with narrower rims and less prominent bosses called gandingan . These gongs may be played alone but are often combined with other instruments to form various types of ensembles.

  • Post-9/11 Brown and the Politics of Intercultural Improvisation A
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE “Sound Come-Unity”: Post-9/11 Brown and the Politics of Intercultural Improvisation A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music by Dhirendra Mikhail Panikker September 2019 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Deborah Wong, Chairperson Dr. Robin D.G. Kelley Dr. René T.A. Lysloff Dr. Liz Przybylski Copyright by Dhirendra Mikhail Panikker 2019 The Dissertation of Dhirendra Mikhail Panikker is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments Writing can feel like a solitary pursuit. It is a form of intellectual labor that demands individual willpower and sheer mental grit. But like improvisation, it is also a fundamentally social act. Writing this dissertation has been a collaborative process emerging through countless interactions across musical, academic, and familial circles. This work exceeds my role as individual author. It is the creative product of many voices. First and foremost, I want to thank my advisor, Professor Deborah Wong. I can’t possibly express how much she has done for me. Deborah has helped deepen my critical and ethnographic chops through thoughtful guidance and collaborative study. She models the kind of engaged and political work we all should be doing as scholars. But it all of the unseen moments of selfless labor that defines her commitment as a mentor: countless letters of recommendations, conference paper coachings, last minute grant reminders. Deborah’s voice can be found across every page. I am indebted to the musicians without whom my dissertation would not be possible. Priya Gopal, Vijay Iyer, Amir ElSaffar, and Hafez Modirzadeh gave so much of their time and energy to this project.

  • East Java – Bali Power Distribution Strengthening Project
    *OFFICIAL USE ONLY PT PLN (Persero) East Java – Bali Power Distribution Strengthening Project Environmental & Social Management Planning Framework (Version for Disclosure) January 2020 *OFFICIAL USE ONLY BASIC INFORMATION 1. Country and Project Name: Indonesia – East Java & Bali Power Distribution Strengthening Project 2. Project Development Objective: The expansion of the distribution network comprises erection of new poles, cable stringing, and installation of distribution transformers. 3. Expected Project Benefits: Construction of about 17,000 km distribution lines and installation of distribution transformers in East Java and Bali 4. Identified Project Environmental and Social Risks: Social Risks. It is envisaged that this project will require (i) use of no more than 0.2 m2 of land for installation of concrete poles and approximately 4m2 for installation of transformers (either in cabinet of between two concrete poles or on one pole); limited directional drilling (approx. 200-300m) to run cables under major roads and limited trenching (usually less than 500m) in urban environments, and (iii) possible removal of non-land assets (primarily trimming or felling of trees) for stringing of conductors. While restrictions on land use within the existing right of way apply, the land requirements for the distribution network (lines and transformers) are considered manageable with normal mitigation measures. Project activities will not (i) require land acquisition, (ii) cause physical or economic displacement; and/or (ii) result in adverse impacts to Indigenous Peoples groups and/or members of ethnic minorities. Environmental risks are principally induced by the establishment of the network across natural habitats and potential impact on fauna (in particular avifauna and terrestrial fauna susceptible to access the distribution lines or transformers such as monkeys or other tree dwelling scavenging animals that frequent semi urban environments), and the management of waste (e.g.

  • Relationship with Percussion Instruments
    Multimedia Figure X. Building a Relationship with Percussion Instruments Bill Matney, Kalani Das, & Michael Marcionetti Materials used with permission by Sarsen Publishing and Kalani Das, 2017 Building a relationship with percussion instruments Going somewhere new can be exciting; it might also be a little intimidating or cause some anxiety. If I go to a party where I don’t know anybody except the person who invited me, how do I get to know anyone else? My host will probably be gracious enough to introduce me to others at the party. I will get to know their name, where they are from, and what they commonly do for work and play. In turn, they will get to know the same about me. We may decide to continue our relationship by learning more about each other and doing things together. As music therapy students, we develop relationships with music instruments. We begin by learning instrument names, and by getting to know a little about the instrument. We continue our relationship by learning technique and by playing music with them! Through our experiences and growth, we will be able to help clients develop their own relationships with instruments and music, and therefore be able to 1 strengthen the therapeutic process.

  • HUMAN GAMELAN LESSON ONE ] May 26, 2011
    [HUMAN GAMELAN LESSON ONE ] May 26, 2011 Lesson by: Vera H. Flaig B.Mus. B.Ed. Ph.D. Description: This lesson explores the concepts of Frequency (speed of a vibration commonly known as pitch) and Duration (length of vibration) through movement and sound. Curricular Outcomes: This lesson is best for older Primary and younger Junior students (grades 3-5). At the conclusion of this lesson, students will be able to understand the various layers that make up the texture of gamelan music. Given that these layers are based upon the duration and frequency of the vibration of each instrument, they will then be able to apply their knowledge to more complex problem solving related to the physics of sound production. Materials: large room with plenty of space for movement plus the following items: a frame-drum, a xylophone (with wooden bars) and a metalophone; a white board with different-colored dry-erase markers; and a CD or MP3 player. You will also need: the notation and a recording of “Bubaran Kembang Pacar,” and the Introduction to Javanese Gamelan power-point slides (in the resources folder), plus a projector. Getting Ready Write out the notation for “Bubaran Kembang Pacar” on the white board. Just write out the numbers for the balungan without any extra symbols for the structural parts; these will be added later. Set up the xylophone (the one with wooden bars) and the metalophone in the following manner: take off the E key, put the F key in its place and add an F# key. Put stickers on the instrument with number 1 being a B, 2 = C; 3 = D; 4 = F; 5 = F#; and 6 = G.

  • Sunan Kali Jaga
    Sunan Kali Jaga Sunan Kali Jaga is one of the Wali Sanga,1 and remains an important figure for ​ ​ Muslims in Java because of his work in spreading Islam and integrating its teachings into the Javanese tradition. Throughout his time proselytizing, he used art forms that, at the time, were both amenable to and treasured by the people of Java. Sunan Kali Jaga is thought to have been born in 1455, with the name Raden Syahid (Raden Sahid) or Raden Abdurrahman. He was the son of Aria Wilatikta, an official in Tuban,2 East Java, who was descended from Ranggalawe, an official of the Majapahit Kingdom during the time of Queen Tri Buwana Tungga Dewi and King Hayam Wuruk. Sunan Kali Jaga’s childhood coincided with the collapse of the Majapahit Kingdom recorded in the sengkalan “Sirna Ilang Kertaning Bhumi,”3 referring to the year 1400 Caka4 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (1478). Seeing the desperate situation of the people of Majapahit, Raden Syahid decided to become a bandit who would rob the kingdom’s stores of crops and the rich people of Majapahit, and give his plunder to the poor. He became well known as Brandal5 Lokajaya. One day when Raden Syahid was in the forest, he accosted an old man with a cane, which he stole, thinking it was made from gold. He said that he would sell the cane and give the money to the poor. The old man was Sunan Bonang,6 and he did not approve of Raden Syahid’s actions. Sunan Bonang advised Raden Syahid that God would not accept such bad deeds; even though his intentions were good, his actions were wrong.

  • Elementos Músicos…
    REVISTA FILIPINA • VERANO 2018 • VOLUMEN 5, NÚMERO 1 ELEMENTOS MÚSICOS EN LA EXPOSICIÓN REGIONAL DE FILIPINAS DE 1895 ANTONIO GARCÍA MONTALBÁN a Exposición Regional de Filipinas de 1895 supuso un esfuerzo colectivo que, por Ldesgracia, llegó tarde en muchos aspectos. Aproximarse a lo que fue proporciona hoy una interesante plataforma desde la que observar la realidad musical de las Islas, las vivencias y percepciones sonoras de sus habitantes. Para la incipiente etnomusicología española supuso una magnífica oportunidad de mostrar al mundo sus avances y hubiera podido ser el primer paso de un horizonte investigador enormemente fértil. Pero, como es sabido, las circunstancias no fueron favorables y poco tiempo después, en la primavera de 1898, se dio fin a la administración española en aquellos territorios, con el consiguiente debilitamiento de las relaciones económicas y culturales. Entre otras cosas, la Exposición vino a poner de manifiesto la manera en que la musicología hispano-filipina concebía sus investigaciones, métodos de observación y criterios de clasificación. También evidenció las debilidades de sus análisis y la inmensidad de sus retos apasionantes. I. UNA APROXIMACIÓN A LA VIDA MUSICAL DE LA PROVINCIA MÁS REMOTA DE ULTRAMAR En relación con las Filipinas escasean las fuentes directas que nos informen sobre la música en aquella sociedad multicultural1. Al margen de los estudios básicos de los fondos de archivos catedralicios, parroquias y conventos, se ha de recurrir a una variada documentación indirecta para reconstruir la experiencia musical en aquellos territorios2. Sin menoscabo de 1 El espléndido trabajo bibliográfico de Trinidad H. Pardo de Tavera, Biblioteca Filipina o sea Catálogo razonado de todos los impresos, tanto insulares como extranjeros, relativos a la Historia,…etc., de las Islas Filipinas, de Joló y Marianas, Washington, Government Printing Office, 1903, daba ya noticia de algunos textos que habían intentado profundizar en el hecho musical concreto.
