Mary Gottschalk Cultures of the Middle East 220 Professor Abdelrahim Salih Final Paper Music in the Middle East
Gottschalk 1 Mary Gottschalk Cultures of the Middle East 220 Professor Abdelrahim Salih Final Paper Music in the Middle East The “Middle East” is a term to describe the areas of North Africa and East Asia, where there is a deep cultural history and diverse people, commonly grouped in this term for their cultural similarities. As with trade, information, and innovation, music and the arts moved and assimilated throughout the area. Music pervades the culture in aspects of religion, tradition, and entertainment, and differs according to various conceptions of music based within those religious and cultural ideals. This paper will discuss some of the similarities and differences in middle eastern music: in the instruments as they relate to location, conceptions as they are formed by Muslim doctrine, and traditions based in their respective time periods. Instruments / Place Musical instruments in the middle east range in the complexity, skill needed to play, and type. Broad classifications consist of percussion, bowed, plucked, and wind instruments (Touma 1996 109). A predominant stringed instrument is known as the ‟ud, which literally means “wood”, but it has many names and variations throughout the world (Miller and Shahriari 2006 204). The ‟ud, or al‟ud “…is a fretless, plucked short-necked lute with a body shaped like half a pear” (Touma 1996 109). Its history traces back to the eighth century BCE with changes in size and number of strings, and today is commonly seen with “…five „courses‟ of strings, a course being a pair tuned in unison” (Miller and Shahriari 2006 204). The lack of frets allows the musician to articulate fine gradations of tone, strumming with either a plectrum or fingernails over the middle of the „ud‟s body (Miller and Shahriari 2006 205). -
Song, State, Sawa Music and Political Radio Between the US and Syria
Song, State, Sawa Music and Political Radio between the US and Syria Beau Bothwell Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Beau Bothwell All rights reserved ABSTRACT Song, State, Sawa: Music and Political Radio between the US and Syria Beau Bothwell This dissertation is a study of popular music and state-controlled radio broadcasting in the Arabic-speaking world, focusing on Syria and the Syrian radioscape, and a set of American stations named Radio Sawa. I examine American and Syrian politically directed broadcasts as multi-faceted objects around which broadcasters and listeners often differ not only in goals, operating assumptions, and political beliefs, but also in how they fundamentally conceptualize the practice of listening to the radio. Beginning with the history of international broadcasting in the Middle East, I analyze the institutional theories under which music is employed as a tool of American and Syrian policy, the imagined youths to whom the musical messages are addressed, and the actual sonic content tasked with political persuasion. At the reception side of the broadcaster-listener interaction, this dissertation addresses the auditory practices, histories of radio, and theories of music through which listeners in the sonic environment of Damascus, Syria create locally relevant meaning out of music and radio. Drawing on theories of listening and communication developed in historical musicology and ethnomusicology, science and technology studies, and recent transnational ethnographic and media studies, as well as on theories of listening developed in the Arabic public discourse about popular music, my dissertation outlines the intersection of the hypothetical listeners defined by the US and Syrian governments in their efforts to use music for political ends, and the actual people who turn on the radio to hear the music. -

ÇOLAKOĞLU, Gözde-EKEN, Merve-TÜRK MUSİKİSİ İCRASINDA
179 TÜRK MUSİKİSİ İCRASINDA ARMUDÎ KEMENÇE VE GEÇİRDİĞİ TEKNOLOJİK GELİŞMELER* ÇOLAKOĞLU, Gözde-EKEN, Merve TÜRKİYE/ТУРЦИЯ ÖZET Armudî kemençe 18. yüzyıl sonlarında İstanbul’da çalgılı kahvehanelerde ve meyhanelerde icra edilen eğlence musikisinde kullanılan bir “kaba saz”dır. 19. yüzyıl sonlarında Vasilâki ve Tanbûri Cemil Bey’in icra açısından getirdiği yeni ekol ise çalgının kaba sazdan ince saza geçişini sağlamıştır. Bu icracılarla birlikte armudî kemençeye Klasik Türk Musikisi üslubu yerleşmiş, icra ediliş pozisyonu ve icra teknikleri açısından kemençe Türk Musikisi’nin vazgeçilmez bir yaylı çalgısı hâline gelmiştir. İcra tavrının oturması çalgıya birtakım teknik gelişimleri de getirmiştir. Tel boyları eşit olmayan üç telli kemençeye ilk kez Tanburi Cemil Bey ve Vasilaki dördüncü teli eklemişler ve kemençenin ses kapasitesini geliştirmişlerdir. Ancak bu ekleme tel boyları eşitlenmeden ve üst eşik eklenmeden yapılmıştır. İkinci bir gelişme ise Hüseyin Sadettin Arel’in kemençenin tel boylarını eşitlemesi ve çalgıyı soprano, alto, bas ve kontrbastan oluşacak kemençe beşlemesi ile çeşitlendirmesi olmuştur. Bu bildiride armudî kemençenin Türk toplumunda yepyeni bir icra üslubu ile var oluşu ve üç telliden dört telliye geçirdiği teknolojik gelişim irdelenecektir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Armudî kemençe, Türk musikisi icra üslubu, teknik gelişmeler. ABSTRACT At the end of the 18th century the pear shaped kemence mostly accompanied to the Ottoman dance and entertainment music in “Kaba Saz Ensemble” in Istanbul. During the last years of the nineteenth century, the masters of the kemenche Vasilaki and Tanburi Cemil Bey, who carried a new performance style to kemenche, achieved to install the pear shaped kemenche into the fasıl music. The pear shaped kemenche achieved performing type of Classical Music with these performers. -

However, almost no structural research has been performed into the impact this has, or might have in the future, on musicians in training. air#3 That the distinction between composition and performance differs according to culture is also an area of interest. The Amsterdam Conservatory has invited Joël Bons to investi- gate the opportunities arising from the combination of differ- ent music cultures, for both composition and performance prac- tice. Particular attention will be given to bringing these two practices closer to one another. Where possible he will, in response to his findings, advise the Board on the selection of guest tutors and other teaching air#4 staff, the development and reform of the curriculum, and the programming of the Composition Department. In addition, the Amsterdam Conservatory has asked Joël Bons to investigate the feasibility of a Centre of Excellence at the Conservatory devoted to various aspects of non-Western music, namely knowledge, research, composition and performance. air#0 air#1 From the letter of appointment air#2 Joël Bons Joël Bons studied guitar and composition at the Sweelinck Conservatory in 4 5 Amsterdam.
