Yama, Hoko, Yatai, Float Festivals in Japan
Yama, Hoko, Yatai, float festivals in Japan UNESCO inscribed “Yama, Hoko, Yatai, float festivals in Japan” on the representative list of intangible cultural heritage of humanity. A total of 33 float festivals from around Japan are included as a single entry on the UNESCO list, among them two previously inscribed festivals, the Gion Festival yamahoko parade and the Hitachi Furyumono, now part of the new listing. The Japanese government proposed the 33 float festivals not just because they are centuries-old traditions, but also for the role they play bringing together many members of the community and preserving the traditional crafts of carpentry, lacquer work and fabric dyeing. Much work by many people goes into making and maintaining, and preparing and parading the floats. Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida expressed his hope that more people would be interested in the various regions of Japan thanks to the inscription, explaining that while the 33 festivals of “Yama, Hoko, Yatai, float festivals in Japan” share common features, they have their own character, displaying many kinds of attractions of their region. © JNTO© Q.

Dietrich School of Arts & Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Dietrich School of Arts & Sciences This dissertation was presented by Benjamin Pachter It was defended on April 8, 2013 and approved by Adriana Helbig Brenda Jordan Andrew Weintraub Deborah Wong Dissertation Advisor: Bell Yung ii Copyright © by Benjamin Pachter 2013 iii Wadaiko in Japan and the United States: The Intercultural History of a Musical Genre Benjamin Pachter, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2013 This dissertation is a musical history of wadaiko, a genre that emerged in the mid-1950s featuring Japanese taiko drums as the main instruments. Through the analysis of compositions and performances by artists in Japan and the United States, I reveal how Japanese musical forms like hōgaku and matsuri-bayashi have been melded with non-Japanese styles such as jazz. I also demonstrate how the art form first appeared as performed by large ensembles, but later developed into a wide variety of other modes of performance that included small ensembles and soloists. Additionally, I discuss the spread of wadaiko from Japan to the United States, examining the effect of interactions between artists in the two countries on the creation of repertoire; in this way, I reveal how a musical genre develops in an intercultural environment. -
