Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2013 APPROVED: Adam Wodnicki, Major Professor Elvia Puccinelli, Committee Member Joseph Banowetz, Committee Member Steven Harlos, Chair of the Division of Keyboard Studies John Murphy, Interim Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Kim, Jin. Exploring Aspects of Korean Traditional Music in Young Jo Lee’s Piano Honza Nori. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2013, 29 pp., 4 tables, 9 figures, 13 musical examples, bibliography, 32 titles. Since the 1960s, several gifted Korean composers, including perhaps most notably Young Jo Lee (b. 1943), have been internationally acclaimed for their work. In Western countries, however, there has been a scarcity of academic studies examining the artistry of the music of these Korean composers. Nonetheless, as one of today’s most recognized composers in Korea, Young Jo Lee has been invited to numerous international concerts, conferences, and festivals where his works have been played and discussed. A salient feature of his compositions is the fusion of Korean traditional music and the elements of Western compositions, such as in, for one distinctive example, his piano composition, Piano Honza Nori. This musical study describes and analyzes how Lee integrates Korean traditional elements with Western musical ideas in Piano Honza Nori. Results of this study will contribute to the limited literature on the analysis of contemporary piano composition that integrates Korean traditional elements.

  • Korean Dance and Pansori in D.C.: Interactions with Others, the Body, and Collective Memory at a Korean Performing Arts Studio
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: KOREAN DANCE AND PANSORI IN D.C.: INTERACTIONS WITH OTHERS, THE BODY, AND COLLECTIVE MEMORY AT A KOREAN PERFORMING ARTS STUDIO Lauren Rebecca Ash-Morgan, M.A., 2009 Directed By: Professor Robert C. Provine School of Music This thesis is the result of seventeen months’ field work as a dance and pansori student at the Washington Korean Dance Company studio. It examines the studio experience, focusing on three levels of interaction. First, I describe participants’ interactions with each other, which create a strong studio community and a women’s “Korean space” at the intersection of culturally hybrid lives. Second, I examine interactions with the physical challenges presented by these arts and explain the satisfaction that these challenges can generate using Csikszentmihalyi’s theory of “optimal experience” or “flow.” Third, I examine interactions with discourse on the meanings and histories of these arts. I suggest that participants can find deeper significance in performing these arts as a result of this discourse, forming intellectual and emotional bonds to imagined people of the past and present. Finally, I explain how all these levels of interaction can foster in the participant an increasingly rich and complex identity.

  • No. 22 How Did North Korean Dance Notation Make Its Way to South
    School of Oriental and African Studies University of London SOAS-AKS Working Papers in Korean Studies No. 22 How did North Korean dance notation make its way to South Korea’s bastion of traditional arts, the National Gugak Center? Keith Howard http://www.soas.ac.uk/japankorea/research/soas-aks-papers/ How did North Korean dance notation make its way to South Korea’s bastion of traditional arts, the National Gugak Center? Keith Howard (SOAS, University of London) © 2012 In December 2009, the National Gugak Center published a notation for the dance for court sacrificial rites (aak ilmu). As the thirteenth volume in a series of dance notations begun back in 1988 this seems, at first glance, innocuous. The dance had been discussed in relation to the music and dance at the Rite to Confucius (Munmyo cheryeak) in the 1493 treatise, Akhak kwebŏm (Guide to the Study of Music), and had also, as part of Chongmyo cheryeak, been used in the Rite to Royal Ancestors. Revived in 1923 during the Japanese colonial period by members of the court music institute, then known as the Yiwangjik Aakpu (Yi Kings’ Court Music Institute), the memories and practice of former members of that institute ensured that the music and dance to both rites would be recognised as intangible cultural heritage within the post-liberation Republic of Korea (South Korea), with Chongymo cheryeak appointed Important Intangible Cultural Property (Chungyo muhyŏng munhwajae)1 1 in December 1964 and a UNESCO Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage in 2001, and the entire Confucian rite (Sŏkchŏn taeje) as Intangible Cultural Property 85 in November 1986.2 In fact, the director general of the National Gugak Center, Pak Ilhun, in a preface to volume thirteen, notes how Sŏng Kyŏngnin (1911–2008), Kim Kisu (1917–1986) and others who had been members of the former institute, and who in the 1960s were appointed ‘holders’ (poyuja) for Intangible Cultural Property 1, taught the dance for sacrificial rites to students at the National Traditional Music High School in 1980.

  • 3. Concept , Practice and Repertoires of Traditional Improvisatory Music Of
    - 21- Concept, Practice and Repertoires of Traditional Improvisatory Music of Korea co Byong Won Lee* The concept of improvisation, opposed to composition, has largely been developed in the Western art music tradition. Developed from a small fraction of materials of the world's music, it could hardly be universally applicable. The Harvard Dictionary of Music, for example, defines improvisation as "the art of performing music spontaneously, wilhout the manuscript, sketches, or memory ... the art of introducing improvised details into written compositions ... (1969:404),» and it goes on to state that "the great art of improvisation has been lost, since it is no longer practiced by composers and survives chiefly among organ viJtuosos (Ibid.).» What the dictionary's definition concerns is doubtlessly the Western art tradition up to the late 19th century, and the definition is inoperative in other culture's improvisatory music, such as Indian raga, Korean sinawi and American jazz. While recognizing different degrees of performer's creativity in composition and improvisation, Nett! asserts that juxtaposing them "as fundamentally different process is false, and that the two are instead part of the same idea (1974: 6). » Following a comparative study on the nature of improvisation of American Indian, Arabic, Iranian and, Indian musics, he arrives at a conclusion which rejects the dichotomy of composition-improvisation by saying that "we must abandon the idea of improvisation as a process separate from composition and adopt the view that all performers improvise to some extent (Ibid.: 1~).» The objective of this paper is neither to rebut Nettl's denial of dichotomy of composition- (1) This is a modified and enlarged version of "Improvisation in Korean Musics," Music Educators Journal 66(5): 137-45, January, 1980.

  • Playing Janggu (Korean Drum)
    2011 EPIK Episode 1 Playing Janggu (Korean drum) Written by: Jennifer Arzadon Cheongju Technical High School The most impressive moment that has happened to me at my school would have to be when I accidentally joined the samul nori teacher’s group. I was invited to be a spectator at a samul nori practice session during lunchtime. The moment I entered their practice room, a janggu was placed in front of me and I was shown how to beat the drum-like instrument. Samul nori is the Korean traditional percussion music. The word samul means "four objects" and nori means "play" which is performed with four traditional Korean musical instruments: kkwaenggwari (a small gong), jing (a larger gong), janggu (an hourglass-shaped drum), and buk (a barrel drum similar to the bass drum). The traditional Korean instruments are called pungmul. Every Monday during lunchtime is our regular practices. Our leader kindly gave me my own gungchae and yeolchae so I can practice playing janggu on my own. One month later, we were told that the samul nori team was to perform for the official opening of the school’s new building. The week before the performance, we met and practiced every day during lunch along with the students who were going to perform with us. The day finally came for our first performance and I was pretty nervous. We got dressed in the traditional samul nori outfits and practiced one last time before heading out. The performance went great. We performed in front and all around the building to bless, to ensure good fortune and of course to celebrate.

    Health Practitioners’ Understanding and Use of Relaxation Techniques (RTs), Mindfulness Meditation (MM) and Relaxation Music (RM) in the UK and South Korea: a Qualitative Case Study Approach Mi hyang Hwang A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Health and Social Sciences University of the West of England, Bristol November 2017 Abstract Background: The information exchange between healthcare practitioners in South Korea and the UK has so far been limited and cross-cultural comparisons of Relaxation techniques (RTs) and Mindfulness meditation (MM) and Relaxation music (RM) within the healthcare context of Korea and the UK have previously been unexplored. This has been the inspiration for this qualitative case study focussing on understanding and use of RTs, MM and RM within the respective healthcare contexts. Methods: Data were collected through qualitative semi-structured interviews with six Korean and six UK healthcare practitioners in three professional areas: medical practice, meditation, and music therapy. Approval from the Ethics Committee was granted (Application number: HLS/13/05/68). The interviews were transcribed and a thematic analysis was undertaken. The topics explored include: a) the value and use of RTs, MM and RM; b) approaches and methods; c) practitioners’ concerns; d) responses of interventions; e) cultural similarities and differences; and f) the integration of RTs, MM and RM within healthcare. Underlying cultural factors have been considered, including education systems and approaches, practitioner-client relationships and religious influences alongside the background of cultural change and changing perspectives within healthcare in the UK and Korea.
