Introduction 0.1 Overview 1 Gurung ( ग��ु ) , a.k.a. Tamu Kyi (तम ु 啍यी) is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in the higher mountain area in the kingdom of Nepal. It is also spoken by Gurungs living in the eastern part of this country in which Tibetan speakers are dominant. Not merely Gurungs but also other tribes adjacent to the Gurung speaking area use the term Gurung as their surnames, and at times for their nationality. In spite of the fact that Gurung shows diversity in regional variations, it has been used as a lingua franca of the area. Nowadays, most of the younger generation are not active speakers, but passive listeners of this language. The number of those who speak the language with fluency is decreasing year by year. Most teenagers never speak the language, and instead they use Nepali, the official language of the country. Gurung can be divided into three major dialects: eastern, western, and southern. The Syangja dialect belongs to southern Gurung. According to the 2011 census of Nepal, Gurung is spoken by 326,000 people in the middle of the country2.

    Oral Tradition, 30/2 (2016):281-318 The House of Letters: Musical Apprenticeship among the Newar Farmers (Kathmandu Valley, Nepal) Franck Bernède “Etoit-il étonnant que les premiers grammairiens soumissent leur art à la musique, & fussent à la fois professeurs de l’un & de l’autre?” J. J. Rousseau, Essai sur l’origine des langues “Is it surprising that the first grammarians subordinated their art to music and were teachers of both?” J. J. Rousseau, Essay on the Origin of Language This article explores the principles of musical discourse among the Jyāpu farmers of the Kathmandu Valley as revealed through the teaching of the dhimay drum. During this purely ritual apprenticeship, it is through the transmission of a corpus of musical compositions, based on mimetic syllables that are perceived as an expression of the voice of Nāsadyaḥ, the local god of music and dance, that the discourse of authority of the masters is expressed. The instrumental pieces played during religious processions originate from these syllables, which imitate the sounds of the drum. In addition, dhimay drum apprenticeship is inextricably linked to that of acrobatics, which includes the virtuoso handling of a tall bamboo pole. I propose to discuss here the nature of this musical language in its traditional context, as well as its recent transformations in Newar society.1 In 1995 when I embarked on my investigations in Kathmandu Valley, I was looking for a master musician who would be willing to teach me the rudiments. At that time Jyāpu farmers 1 This article was translated from the French by Josephine Marchand.

  • Ritual Movement in the City of Lalitpur
    RITUAL MOVEMENT IN THE CITY OF LALITPUR Mark A. Pickett This article intends to explore the ways that the symbolic organization of space in the Newar city of Lalitpur (J;'atan) is renewed through ritualized movement in the many processions that take place throughout the year. Niels GUlschow (1982: 190-3) has done much 10 delineate the various processions and has constructed a typology of fOUf different forms, I In my analysis I build on this work and propose a somewhat morc sophisticated typology of processions that differentiates the lypes still further. Sets of Deities Space is defined by reference to several sels of deities that are positioned at significant locations in and around the city. Gutschow (ibid.: 165, Map [82) shows a set of four Bhimsen shrines and four Narayana shrines which are all located within the city. 80th sets of four ~hrines encircle the central palace area. Gutschow (ibid.: 65, Map 183) also shows the locations of eight Ganesh shrines that are divided into two sets of four. One of these groups describes a polygon that like those of the shrines of Bhimsen and Narayana, encircles the palace area. It is not clear what significance, if any, that these particular sets of deities have for the life of the city. They do not givc risc to any specific festival, nor are they visited, as far as I am aware in any consecutive manncr. Other sets of deities have very clear meaning, however, and it is to thesc that I shall now turn to first morc on the boundaries which give the city much of its character.

Nepalese Musical Tr a d i t i o n s 233 Until 1951, Nepal had been closed to the rest of the world for s e veral hundred years. The use of the wheel was restricted to ritual purposes. The only school in the country was reserved for members of the ruling Rana aristocracy who pursued a lifestyle similar to the Nawabs of Lucknow. The unique topography of Nepal (with 20 mil- lion inhabitants) helped preserve an extremely rich variety of ethnic g roups (speaking 36 languages) and their musical traditions on a t e rritory half the size of Germany. Despite natural and imposed restrictions on travel, there have been periods of exchange with Indian musical traditions, some of which were modified to local needs and inspired the unique musical culture of the Newar people of the Kathmandu Valley which arguably is the most complex musical tradi- tion in the entire Himalayas.
