Sayısı için Etnomüzikoloji disiplininin geçmişten bugüne ortaya koyduğu modeller, alan kavramının tanımlanması, etnomüzikolojiye özgü bakış açıla- rının nasıl biçimlendiğine yönelik kritiklerin yapılacağı makalelere ve saha çalışması örneklerine çağrı yaptık. Konu dahilinde tarihsel sürece bakış ve yeni yaklaşımların yeniden değerlendirildiği makalelerin yanı sıra, serbest te- malı çalışmalara da yer verdiğimiz bir sayı oluştu. Etnomüzikoloji alanında referans çalışmalar arasından özellikle seçtiğimiz, farklı dillerde yayınlanan makalelerin çevirilerine de yer vermeyi hedeflemiş olmamızdan dolayı, bu sa- yıda bir çeviri makale ile Türkçe okuyup, konuşan araştırmacılara katkı yapma yolunda ilk adımı atmış olduk. Sayı temasının belirlenmesinde ise, etnomüzikoloji disiplini üzerine yapı- lan bazı tartışmaların rol oynadığını belirtmek isterim. Çünkü, bazı çevre- lerce etnomüzikoloji disiplininin ismi ve kapsamı tartışılırken, disiplinin geç- mişten bugüne yaklaşım biçimleri, günümüz algısı ile yeniden değerlendiril- mesi gerekliydi. Süreci özetlemek gerekirse, halihazırda günümüze kadar et- kisini gösteren bazı çalışmalar sonucu ötekileştirilmiş olan toplum yapıları, toplum yapılarının müzik üretim biçimlerini, kültürel görecelilik bakış açı- sıyla incelemeye tabi tutarak görünür kılan bir disiplinin, etnosentirik olarak değerlendirilmesi çelişkili bir yaklaşım olup, üzerinde fikir tartışması barın- dıran makaleler ile başlangıç niteliğinde de olsa irdelenmeliydi. Zira etnomü- zikolojinin, sosyal bilimlerin genelinde dönem dönem etkisini göstermiş olan post-kolonyal yaklaşım noktasına, önem sırasına koyduğu unsurlar düşünül- düğünde uzak bir tutum sergilediğini görmek mümkündür. Erken dönem ça- lışmalarında, belirttiğim üzere “öteki”leştirilmiş yapıları köy, kırsal v.b. or- tamlardan örneklerken, değişen toplum yapıları paralelinde alan kavramını

  • Traditional Armenian Instrumental Music That Was Lacking Has Finally Arrived!
    GERARD MADILIAN TRADITIONAL ARMENIAN INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC Jan. 2020 GERARD MADILIAN TRADITIONAL ARMENIAN INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC 1 2 FOREWORD Transmitted from generation to generation, and moving away from its rural origins to perpetuate itself in an urban context, Armenian traditional music has not lost its original strength. History has buried many secrets along the way, but we will try to gather together this heritage through the work of passionate musicologists. This work is neither a manual nor an encyclopedia, but instead presents a synthesis of knowledge acquired over time. It is dedicated to all those who wish to discover or better understand this unusual musical universe. Armenian words transcribed into English (phonetic of Eastern Armenian) will be indicated with a capital first letter and will remain in the singular. The author 3 4 PREFACE The long-awaited book on traditional Armenian instrumental music that was lacking has finally arrived! As my long-time friend Gerard Madilian wrote in his foreword: "History has buried many secrets along the way." It was thus urgent to share the fruits of this research with the general public, and that is why this work was deliberately written in French and translated into English, to make it widely available to as many people as possible. This book is a digest including the essential elements needed to form an opinion in this area. The specialized website www.armentrad.org was in fact selected by the author for this purpose of dissemination. I have shared the same passion with Gerard for many years, having myself practiced the Tar within the Sayat Nova ensemble, which was a traditional Armenian ensemble founded in Paris in 1965.

  • INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC in the ROMAN AGE.1 the Cultivation Of
    INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC IN THE ROMAN AGE.1 THE cultivation of instrumental music remained in a backward state among the Greeks in the fifth and fourth centuries, B.C. - This was certainly not due to any want of taste for music.as a whole, for-no race ever valued it higher than did the Greeks. The reasons seem to have been, first, the bondage of-the instrument to the voice, second, the unsettled state of the musical scale, and thirdly, the dislike of the Greeks for over-elaboration in music. • .. • .-..-. ' . These three points are well illustrated in. the Republic of Plato, In opening the discussion on the admissibility of certain modes,-Socrates is made to say that a musical composition is made up of three things, the 'words,' the 'harmony,' and the 'rhythm,' and that the musical "words' are in themselves in no way different from the words of. common speech.2 In another place much scorn is cast by Glaucon on the musicians that sought for the least perceptible interval to make that the unit of sound-measurementr some of the experimenters declaring that they could distinguish an intermed- iate note, where others insisted that the two sounds had passed into unison.3 Socrates answers 'You mean those gentlemen who tease and torture the strings, screwing them up on the pegs.' . • Socrates and Glaucon both speak as amateurs in music, and their feelings must have been shared by many Athenians at the time. Just as with us there are some who long for the return of Handel's 'noble harmonies,' as a relief from the chromatic aberrations of the Wagnerian school, so these two worthy Greeks looked back to the sturdy Dorian airs of Terpander as the true strains of the Hellenic muse, before she had learnt to voice the subtler moods of the heart of man.

  • Projecting MUSIC Across the Silk Road
    Projecting Movement, Union, Synergy, Interplay & Cultural-collaboration across the Silk Road (& beyond) Chuah Aaron global citizen Aim Interplay between culture and globalisation, and in particular the musical connection between the two has been forwarded as an illustrative, hopeful, and harmonious example of how humanity as a global race may enhance mutual understanding and cross-cultural appreciation of its many diverse groups. In particular, this study aims to investigate the global community-building behind the relatively recent Silkroad initiative, and to what degree has its aims been achieved, and how. Introduction The dawn of globalisation (though the term was only coined probably in the 1930s, 1 and popularised in the mid-1980s2), probably began at the confluence of the traditional “East” and “West” thousands of years ago, along what is now popularly known as the “Silk Road” or “Silk Route”, a slight misnomer for it was not a single lengthy road but an ancient network of caravan and maritime routes stretching from Japan and the Korean peninsula in far east Asia to the Mediterranean Sea in the near west, through which it also linked the European and African continents. So named because of its distinct trade of silk amongst other items, particularly horses and spices, the Silk Road has been a channel of exchange between great civilizations from antiquity including the Persians, Syrians, Arabs, Turks, Arabs, Indians and Chinese. The first documented Silk Road crossing3 was led by emissary Zhang Qian (Chang Ch’ien / K’ien) in 139 BCE under the remit of Han Chinese emperor Wu-Di who wished to explore the possibility of alliance with their Central-Asian enemies, which led to deep interest in establishing and defending this trade route.

It Tshaped up as a result of a lengthy historical evolu- tion of aesthetic values and perceptions of the nation, skills of the musical performing art, a fusion of the na- tional and professional musical traditions and the capa- bilities of craftsmen who make musical instruments. Research of the history of development of a nation’s musical culture is impossible without studying, cherish- ing and preserving relevant tangible artifacts, including musical instruments, which are of great importance in this regard. An extensive collection of musical instru- ments is stored at the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan (NMHA). It has been collected throughout the existence of the Museum, i.e. since 1920. The col- lection is kept in two parts at the Museum, namely, the Ethnography Foundation (EF) and the Foundation of Gifts and Memorabilia (FGM). The Ethnography Founda- tion contains Azerbaijani national musical instruments, which were made in the period from the 18th to the na, pipe, harmonica, etc. A total of about 90 musical in- early 20th century.
