  • Protection and Transmission of Chinese Nanyin by Prof
    Protection and Transmission of Chinese Nanyin by Prof. Wang, Yaohua Fujian Normal University, China Intangible cultural heritage is the memory of human historical culture, the root of human culture, the ‘energic origin’ of the spirit of human culture and the footstone for the construction of modern human civilization. Ever since China joined the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2004, it has done a lot not only on cognition but also on action to contribute to the protection and transmission of intangible cultural heritage. Please allow me to expatiate these on the case of Chinese nanyin(南音, southern music). I. The precious multi-values of nanyin decide the necessity of protection and transmission for Chinese nanyin. Nanyin, also known as “nanqu” (南曲), “nanyue” (南乐), “nanguan” (南管), “xianguan” (弦管), is one of the oldest music genres with strong local characteristics. As major musical genre, it prevails in the south of Fujian – both in the cities and countryside of Quanzhou, Xiamen, Zhangzhou – and is also quite popular in Taiwan, Hongkong, Macao and the countries of Southeast Asia inhabited by Chinese immigrants from South Fujian. The music of nanyin is also found in various Fujian local operas such as Liyuan Opera (梨园戏), Gaojia Opera (高甲戏), line-leading puppet show (提线木偶戏), Dacheng Opera (打城戏) and the like, forming an essential part of their vocal melodies and instrumental music. As the intangible cultural heritage, nanyin has such values as follows. I.I. Academic value and historical value Nanyin enjoys a reputation as “a living fossil of the ancient music”, as we can trace its relevance to and inheritance of Chinese ancient music in terms of their musical phenomena and features of musical form.

  • A Japanese Tradition I Want to Share
    A Japanese Tradition I Want To Share Sekioka Maika Hiroshima Prefectural Miyoshi High School The charm of the Sanshin is that it heals and soothes. The Sanshin has been loved in Okinawa for a long time. Nowadays, it is used for celebrations and festivals. The beautiful sound makes you feel nostalgic and gives a sense of security. So, I think the Sanshin is loved not only in Okinawa but also in Japan and around the world. The Sanshin was introduced to Japan from Mainland China in the 14th century. It has been improved over the years to become the present form. It was not a major instrument back then because it was expensive. However, some people made an instrument that imitates the Sanshin, out of cheap materials. After that, it became popular in the whole Okinawa area. That was the beginning of when the Sanshin became a traditional instrument in Okinawa. During World War Ⅱ, only Okinawa experienced ground combat. Many people were injured and killed. At that time, the Sanshin healed the hearts of the Okinawan residents. However, it was difficult for people to get the Sanshin, so they made it out of wood and empty cans. That was called the “Kankara Sanshin.” The Sanshin has been played for a hundred years. Thus, the Sanshin is more special than other instruments for Okinawans. I took a Sanshin class last year. I studied the history of the Sanshin, how to play it, and learned how it differs from the Shamisen. Before that, I did not know the difference between the Sanshin and Shamisen because their shapes are similar.

Miyashiro Thesis Committee: Ricardo D. Trimillos, Chairperson Frederick Lau Christine R. Yano ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author would like to thank, first and foremost, the thesis committee, Dr. Christine Yano, Dr. Frederick Lau, and especially the chairperson Dr. Ricardo Trimillos, for their patience in accepting this long overdue manuscript. Dr. Trimillos deserves extra thanks for initiating this project which began by assisting the author and the thesis subject, Shizuko Akamine, in receiving the Hawai‘i State Foundation on Culture and the Arts Folk & Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Grant with support from Arts Program Specialist Denise Miyahana. Special thanks to Prof. Emeritus Barbara B. Smith and the late Prof. Dr. Robert Günther for their support in helping the author enter the ethnomusicology program. The author would also like to thank the music department graduate studies chair Dr. Katherine McQuiston for her encouragement to follow through, and for scheduling extremely helpful writing sessions where a large part of this thesis was written. This thesis has taken so many years to complete there are far too many supporters (scholarship donors, professors, classmates, students, family, friends, etc.) to thank here, but deep appreciation goes out to each and every one, most of all to wife Mika for being too kind and too patient. Finally, the author would like to thank the late Shizuko Akamine for being the inspiration for this study and for generously sharing so much priceless information.

  • Consolidated List of Abstracts (AAWM
    ABSTRACTS Keynote Addresses Music Analysis and Ethnomusicology: some reflections on rhythmic theory Martin Clayton Durham University, UK If these are interesting times for the relationship between ethnomusicology and music analysis, then this is particularly true in the area of rhythmic and metrical theory. On the one hand, time seems to be more amenable than many other dimensions of music to cross-cultural comparison; indeed, recent work in the (traditionally Western-art-music focused) discipline of ‘music theory’ develops a set of concepts that appear to be generalizable across a wide array of musical traditions. At the same time, ethnomusicology’s history of theorising rhythm, especially in Africa, has acted as a lightning rod for heated criticism of the discipline. Ethnomusicology’s relationship to rhythmic theory appears to be at the same time full of potential and deeply problematic. In this paper I will reflect on some of the issues raised by theorising and analysing musical time cross- culturally, both now and in the past. What principles allow us to continue to develop general theories of rhythm and metre, and what – apart from reflecting on the enormous diversity of musical practice and theory around the world – does a historically self-aware ethnomusicology have to offer that project? Music, Identity Politics, and the Clever Boy from Croydon Nicholas Cook University of Cambridge, UK Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875-1912)—in Elgar’s equivocal term the ‘clever boy’ from Croydon— was discovered by the Royal College of Music set at an early age, and his Hiawatha’s Wedding Feast, completed when the composer was 23, was one of the great commercial successes of its time.
