Zunächst einmal: wir hatten eine erfolgreiche Sommerschule in Vejle in Dänemark im Juli und haben so die nördliche Grenze erweitert, die wir bis zu diesem Jahr hatten. Es hat funktioniert, und wir hatten mehr als 50 Teilnehmer. Danke an alle, die die Sommerschule zu einem unvergesslichen Ereignis gemacht haben. Zweitens, waren ESS Komitee und Berater hinter den Kulissen mit den Vorbereitungen für das Welt Shakuhachi Festival (WSF) beschäftigt, das nächstes Jahr stattfindet. Es ist eine Riesenaufgabe and sehr spannend. Es wird eine wunderbare Shakuhachi Veranstaltung auf einem Niveau, das wir in Europa noch nicht gesehen haben. Ich hoffe, dass viele von euch kommen können und das WSF erleben können; denn es wird erheblich anders sein als die Sommerschulen. Viele der besten Spieler aus Japan und dem Rest der Welt werden dort sein, zusammen mit allen Teilnehmern – und sie werden ihr Wissen und ihre Hingabe an die Shakuhachi durch Meisterklassen, Vorträge und Konzerte mit allen teilen. Veranstaltungsort ist Goldsmiths, University of London vom 1. bis 4. August 2018. Vor dem Festival veranstalten wir ein akademisches Symposium am SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies) University of London am 30. Juli 2018. Bis dahin! Viele Grüße, Kiku Day ESS Vorsitzende Español ESS Newsletter 2017-2, multi-lingual edition From: Letter from the editors, English edition page 4 Carta de los editores Estimados aficionados al shakuhachi: Ya llegó el Otoño. Nuestros bambúes dejaron de romperse, y pronto tendremos que ponerles a cubierto, después de un verano lleno de alegres encuentros con el shakuhachi. Hemos tenido cambios en la oficina de la revista. Desde la última reunión de la ESS en el verano, Philip Horan ha salido del equipo, es un editor con experiencia y un buen amigo, le echaremos de menos, y le agradecemos el excelente trabajo realizado. Véronique Piron se a incorporado a la redacción , y desde aquí manda saludos para todos, No necesita mucha presentación, porque la mayoría de vosotros la conocéis, está muy contenta de volver a estar más activa en la directiva de la ESS. Aquí estamos con otro número de la newsletter de la ESS, esperando que os sea interesante e informativo. Estaremos encantados de recibir vuestros comentarios, así que, por favor, acordaros de dejar de tocar vuestros shakuhachi de vez en cuando, y tomaros un minuto o dos, para contarnos vuestras opiniones, deseos, secretos, etc. Estamos intentando facilitar el acceso a los contenidos al mayor número de personas posible, lo que significa mucho trabajo de traducción, necesitamos ayuda. Agradeceríamos voluntarios para traducir al Francés, Alemán y Español, también intentaremos incluir traducciones al Italiano y Portugués. Necesitamos también expertos en el idioma Inglés. Aquellos de vosotros con capacidades lingüísticas, aquí tenéis la oportunidad de mostrarlas, y ayudarnos a convertir la newsletter en una auténtica revista internacional. Además, hemos ampliado el plazo de admisión de traducciones, para quien quiera traducir cualquier contenido a cualquier lengua europea. Ahora damos un mes, a partir de la fecha de publicación de la Newsletter en Inglés, como plazo para el envío de traducciones, y publicaremos otro documento incluyendo todas las traducciones recibidas, a pesar de que no podemos garantizar, ni hacernos responsables de su calidad. Desde la oficina de la newsletter, intentamos hacer una revista que valga la pena leer, y aporte un espacio con puertas abiertas para que nos encontremos , y continuar dibujando el mapa del mundo de nuestro querido, intrincado, shakuhachi. Los editores Véronique Piron y Jose Vargas-Zuñiga Español ESS Newsletter 2017-2, multi-lingual edition From: Letter from the president, English edition page 5 Carta de la Presidenta Es un placer escribir esta carta para el nuevo número de la ESS (European Shakuhachi Society) Newsletter. En primer lugar decir que la Escuela de Verano de junio en la ciudad de Vejle, Dinamarca, tuvo un gran éxito. Ha sido la vez que nos hemos ido más lejos hacia el Norte. Funcionó bien y tuvimos más de 50 participantes. Gracias a todos los que hicisteis de la Escuela de Verano un evento inolvidable. En segundo lugar y detrás del escenario, tanto el comité de la ESS como los consejeros estuvimos muy ocupados en la preparación del Festival Mundial de Shakuhachi que tendrá lugar el año próximo. Es una empresa inmensa y muy excitante. Será un maravilloso acontecimiento alrededor del shakuhachi de los que no se han visto antes en Europa. Espero que muchos de vosotros podáis venir y vivir la experiencia del Festival Mundial ya que será sustancialmente diferente de las Escuelas de Verano. Habrá muchos de los principales intérpretes de Japón y otros lugares, todos en el mismo espacio como cualquier otro, compartiendo su conocimiento y amor por el shakuhachi a través de clases maestras, charlas y conciertos. El Festival Mundial de Shakuhachi tendrá lugar en la Universidad Goldsmiths de Londres, del 1 al 4 de agosto del 2018. Antes del Festival también acogeremos un simposium académico en el SOAS (Sociedad de Estudios Orientales y Africanos), Universidad de Londres el 30 de julio del 2018. ¡Nos vemos allí!

Español ESS Newsletter 2017-2, multi-lingual edition FESTIVAL El Festival Mundial de Shakuhachi 2018 continúa la tradición establecida en 1994 de reunir intérpretes profesionales y aficionados, académicos y entusiastas del shakuhachi de todo el globo para un festival al estilo de un congreso musical internacional. Este evento ha sido desde sus inicios una oportunidad única en la que la mayoría de los mejores músicos de diversos campos, estilos y escuelas de shakuhachi, koto y shamisen se reúnen para tocar, discutir, dar clases magistrales y pasar el tiempo con aficionados del shakuhachi de todos los niveles, de muchas escuelas y países. El FMS se ha convertido en un probado acontecimiento para escuchar y aprender de los músicos líderes en el mundo. Conciertos, talleres, clases maestras, conferencias, simposia, exhibiciones, sesiones de estudio y encuentros informales tendrán lugar durante cuatro días del 1 al 4 de agosto de 2018. El principal objetivo de este festival es promover la concienciación y comprensión internacional del shakuhachi (así como del koto y shamisen), ambos en un contexto tradicional y en su amplia gama de aplicaciones en la música contemporánea tales como nuevas composiciones para intérpretes y público en general. Los principales estilos de interpretación serán representados para ofrecer una visión amplia de los distintos linajes y escuelas, incluyendo los estilos Kinko, Tozan, KSK y Myôan para shakuhachi e Ikuta, Yamada y Miyagi-kai para koto y shamisen.

  • Playing the Sound of Silence Immersion, Loneliness, and Analysis of Multimodal Intertextuality in 21St Century Video Game Music
    Playing the Sound of Silence Immersion, Loneliness, and Analysis of Multimodal Intertextuality in 21st Century Video Game Music Even Ågrimsønn Næss Tekrø Master Thesis Department of Musicology Faculty of Humanities University of Oslo 2018 © Even Ågrimsønn Næss Tekrø 2018 ‘Playing the Sound of Silence’ http://www.duo.uio.no Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo ii Abstract This thesis seeks to investigate how music helps the player be immersed in video games. I do this through a multimodal and intertextual analysis, where I consider gameplay, visuals, sound design and music. The goal is to uncover what connotations and associations I bring in to the experience that influences the creating of meaning in the music. I use a methodology built on the emerging musicological sub-discipline ludomusicology, popular musicology and game studies, which give me a holistic approach for the hermeneutics of the video game music. I have used the lens of loneliness to give myself a framework to work within. For this thesis I have separated loneliness into three different categories: solitude, loneliness and isolation. I do this to better explore different facets of the experience of being alone in a video game, and how the music affects that experience specifically. This main part of this thesis is split into three chapters related to discussion around my interpretations. I examine The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017), No Man’s Sky (2016) and Bloodborne (2015) iii iv Acknowledgments First, I need to thank the Department of Musicology, University of Oslo, for giving this popular music student a chance at musicology proper when they accepted me into their master’s programme.

  • T I the Systemisation of the Musical Language
    Ti TheSystemisation of the Musical Language of the Fukezen SfzakufzacfziHonkyoku VlastislavMatoušek 1. Su1zEN - 'BLOWINCZEN': SPIRITUALITY AS Mus1c, AND Mus1c AS SPIRITUAL PRACTICE Until the middle of the 19th century theshakuhachi bamboo flute,nowadays something of a symbol of the Japanese musical tradition, functioned not as a musical instrument (gakki)but primarily as a religious tool (hóki) exclusive to the Zen Buddhist Fuke sect. Whilst the secť s komusó - or "monks of nothingness" - spent most of their time playing, they did not regard themselves as musicians, for the musical activity which they engaged in, and which the uninitiated observer would surely term "playing the flute", was actually just a form of Zen meditation in which esoteri­ cally transmitted pieces of music now referred to collectively as honkyoku (lit. "basic pieces"), were performedon the instrument. This manner of playing the shakuhachi (known as the fakestyle), as has come down to us primarily through the traditions of the Myóanji ('Light and Dark­ ness') Temple in Kyoto, is first and foremost a manifestation of the Zen, of its emphasis on the real and true, its focus on the essence, its rejection of that which is external and superficial. Its ideal in sound is 'the murmuring of the wind through the bamboo grove', and its basic princip al is that of ichi on jobutsu, or one-sound Buddhahood. Kurosawa Kinko I (1710-1771), the founder of the KinkoRyú is said to have verbalised the concept of suizen with such laconic kóan­ like pronouncements.1 ("The members ofthe Fuke sect have le.ftus with very little writ­ ten materialelucidating the philosophy which underlaytheir playingshakuhachi as suiz.en, the blowing Zen, the honkyokupresumably speakingfor themselves".
