Oct. 2021 Writing Music in Nineteenth-Century Istanbul Ottoman Armenians and the Invention of Hampartsum Notation Jacob Olley PhD in Music King’s College London 2017 1 2 Abstract This thesis describes the invention and adoption of a new notation system, known today as ‘Hamparsum notası’ or ‘Hay ardi jaynagrut‘iwn’ (‘modern Armenian notation’), in nineteenth- century Istanbul. The first part focuses on a small group of Catholic Armenians who developed the notation system in around 1812, including the musician Hambarjum Limōnčean (1768– 1839), the Mxit‘arist scholar Minas Bžškean (1777–1851), and their patrons the Tiwzean family. I argue that the notational reform was an aspect of a larger cultural and intellectual revival led by the monastery of San Lazzaro in Venice. Based on Bžškean’s treatise on music and excerpts from Limōnčean’s memoir, I show how discussions about notational reform were linked to broader concerns about the cultural and educational situation of the Armenians in the Ottoman Empire. Furthermore, drawing on a ‘connected’ historiographical model, I argue that the reform can be read as a translation of Enlightenment thought into local musical contexts, and that it should be seen in relation to the simultaneous reform of Byzantine notation by Chrysanthos of Madytos (ca. 1770–1846) and his collaborators. At the same time, I demonstrate that the reformers were deeply embedded in the urban and musical environment of Istanbul, and that the development of Hampartsum notation cannot be understood without reference to the history and practices of secular Ottoman music. In the second part of the thesis, drawing on manuscript collections of Hampartsum notation as well as theoretical treatises, Ottoman court histories and accounts by European observers, I show how shifting relations between different confessional communities led to the adoption of Hampartsum notation by Muslim musicians. Finally, I discuss polemical debates about notation in Turkish and Armenian during the late nineteenth century, showing how institutionalisation, print technology and nationalist ideologies shaped attitudes towards writing music. 3 4 Table of Contents List of Tables 7 List of Figures 7 Acknowledgements 9 Note on Transliteration, Dates and Terminology 15 Introduction 19 Previous Scholarship on Hampartsum Notation 20 Enlightenment, Nationalism and Connected History: Armenian Perspectives 26 Cultural History and Musicology in Ottoman Studies 32 History and (Ethno)Musicology 38 Key Sources and Structure of the Thesis 42 PART ONE: THE INVENTION OF HAMPARTSUM NOTATION 1.

Special thanks are due to my primary supervisor, Martin Stokes, whose invaluable encouragement, suggestions and friendship have profoundly shaped the final form of the thesis. I would also like to thank Katherine Butler Schofield, whose research and teaching inspired me to explore new historiographical directions, and who provided valuable practical advice. Alexander Lingas and Laurent Mignon both helped me to make important clarifications and corrections following their examination of the thesis in September 2017. The revised thesis was submitted in February 2018. My interest in the musical histories of the Middle East began while I was an undergraduate at the School of Oriental and African Studies. Owen Wright introduced me to many of the sources and issues in the field of Ottoman music studies, and has been an excellent mentor as well as providing crucial feedback on several chapters in the thesis. Other staff members at SOAS music department encouraged me to pursue my academic career further and taught me much about music and scholarship. I would particularly like to thank Rachel Harris and Richard Widdess for their encouragement, teaching and advice. My first practical encounter with the musics of the Middle East was facilitated by the SOAS Middle Eastern Music Ensemble, with whom I shared many valuable and enjoyable learning experiences. I would like to thank all the other members of the ensemble in 2007–2011 for introducing me to a new world of musical knowledge and experience. I owe a special debt of gratitude to Mehmet Uğur Ekinci, who originally suggested doing postgraduate research on manuscript collections of Hampartsum notation. Laudan Nooshin provided valuable encouragement and advice in the early stages of my research. Yorgos Dedes was an inspiring teacher of Ottoman Turkish and much besides. I would like to acknowledge Emine Çakır Sürmeli

Oral Traditions of Italo-Albanian Communities in Sicily and Calabria1 Oliver Gerlach Abstract: The main difference with respect to the Balkans is that Italo-Greek as well as Arbëresh communities had been rural throughout the centuries. Hence, the community itself did the job of the choir during Orthodox celebrations, which became only possible in certain communities belonging to two Archdioceses of the Byzantine rite: Lungro in Calabria and Piana degli Albanesi on Sicily. Within the catholic church they were allowed to celebrate the Greek rite, but this became possible due to a new law in church administration which existed since the 18th century. The question if there did really exist a continuous oral transmission since the arrival of Albanian emigrants during the last decades of the 15th century, and in as far they adapted to local customs of the Italo-Byzantine tradition which had survived around the Archimandritates in Italy, has not been an issue of historical research yet.

  • National Inventory of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Greece
    NATIONAL INVENTORY OF INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE OF GREECE I. BRIEF PRESENTATION OF THE ELEMENT OF INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE (ICH) 1. Name : Chant. Other names : Byzantine Music, Eastern Orthodox Church Music, Art of Chanting, Chant of Constantinople, Psaltic Art, Psalmody, Hymnody 2. Identification : The mnemotechnics of the rendering of chants in Church services (practitioners, Liturgical Typikon, planning of concerts, resources, manuals, training and its characteristic cultural constitutive elements and idioms). 3. Domain represented by the element • Oral traditions and expressions. The fundamental subject of chanting is bound by specific techniques and theoretical knowledge on many levels provided exclusively in church staged rites. These components require long studies and systematic exercise in church choirs, where trainees specialize in specific levels and areas of expertise (rising from the lower roles of Anagnostis [Reader], Canonarch [who intones the verses of the hymns], Isokratis [who holds the fundamental note of a given melodic section] or Melodist, to the higher offices of Domestikos B and Domestikos A [Assistants to the Leaders of the Left and Right Choirs, respectively], Lampadarios [Leader of the Left Choir] or Protopsaltis [First Cantor, Leader of the Right Choir]). In this manner, the knowledge of chanting is transmitted orally from the older masters to the younger. Moreover, mnemonic, practical methods and insignificant phrases or words or even mnemonic verses capture and summarize the basic practical knowledge (interpretations, “ananes” for an intonation, or “neanes”, “nana”, “agia” etc.). • Liturgical arts as cultural means of self-determination. In conjunction with church poetry (psalms, hymns), chant is the liturgical art par excellence within the framework of Holy Services in Orthodox churches.

    Dimitrie Cantemir y Miguel de Cervantes. Retratos en espejo / Amelia Sandu-Andrie ș Nexo , nº11, año 2014 DIMITRIE CANTEMIR Y MIGUEL DE CERVANTES. RETRATOS EN ESPEJO Amelia Sandu-Andrie ș Liceo Dimitre Cantemir (Ia și, Rumanía) Resumen: Los dos protagonistas, el principe-literato rumano Dimitrie Cantemir y el escritor español Miguel de Cervantes, representan figuras de primera importancia en sus respectivos países. Las autoridades se encargan, de forma más o menos sentida, de rendirles homenaje en fechas señaladas. El presente ensayo se aleja del mito oficial construido en torno a los personajes vistos como símbolos nacionales o como temas de estudio académico y se acerca a ellos en tanto que seres humanos, en un intento de destacar las coincidencias entre las dos biografías. Una empresa arriesgada, puesto que a priori, todo parece separar a nuestros escritores: la época, el país de nacimiento, la educación, el recorrido vital, la fama que les ha reservado la posteridad. A pesar de ello, un hilo común surge con fuerza, uniéndolos indefectiblemente: su profundo humanismo, su mirada compasiva hacia un mundo autodestructivo, su capacidad de superación, su tolerancia y su deseo de tender puentes de conocimiento y comprensión entre personas, culturas, sociedades y costumbres divergentes. A partir de ahí, nace y se va construyendo tímidamente esta breve presentación en espejo de Cantemir (al que pocos conocen, en España) y Cervantes (al que bastantes aún leen, en Rumanía). Entrar en las vidas excepcionales de estos dos modelos humanos ha constituido una experiencia interior apasionante. Espero que los lectores compartan conmigo la alegría de este viaje especial.
