Iranian Traditional Music Dastgah Classification
12th International Society for Music Information Retrieval Conference (ISMIR 2011) IRANIAN TRADITIONAL MUSIC DASTGAH CLASSIFICATION SajjadAbdoli Computer Department, Islamic Azad University, Central Tehran Branch, Tehran, Iran [email protected] ABSTRACT logic to integrate music tuning theory and practice. After feature extraction, the proposed system assumes In this study, a system for Iranian traditional music Dastgah each performed note as an IT2FS, so each musical piece is a classification is presented. Persian music is based upon a set set of IT2FSs.The maximum similarity between this set and of seven major Dastgahs. The Dastgah in Persian music is theoretical Dastgah prototypes, which are also sets of similar to western musical scales and also Maqams in IT2FSs, indicates the desirable Dastgah. Gedik et al. [10] Turkish and Arabic music. Fuzzy logic type 2 as the basic used the songs of the dataset to construct the patterns, part of our system has been used for modeling the whereas in this study, the system makes no assumption about uncertainty of tuning the scale steps of each Dastgah. The the data except that different Dastgahs have different pitch method assumes each performed note as a Fuzzy Set (FS), so intervals. Figure 1 shows the schematic diagram of the each musical piece is a set of FSs. The maximum similarity system. We also show that the system can recognize the between this set and theoretical data indicates the desirable Dastgah of the songs of the proposed dataset with overall Dastgah. In this study, a collection of small-sized dataset for accuracy of 85%. Persian music is also given. -
Knee-Fiddles in Poland: Multidimensional Bridging of Paradigms
Knee-Fiddles in Poland: Multidimensional Bridging of Paradigms Ewa Dahlig-Turek Abstract: Knee-fiddles, i.e., bowed chordophones played in the vertical position, are an extinct group of musical instruments existing in the past in the Polish territory, known only from the few iconographic sources from the 17th and 19th century. Their peculiarity lies in the technique of shortening the strings – with the fingernails, and not with the fingertips. Modern attempts to reactivate the extinct tradition by introducing knee-fiddles to musical practice required several steps, from the reconstruction of the instruments to proposing a performance technique and repertoire. The process of reconstructing knee-fiddles and their respective performance practice turned out to be a multi-dimensional fusion of paradigms leading to the bridging of seemingly unconnected phenomena of different times (instrument), cultures (performance technique) or genres (repertoire): (1) historical fiddle-making paradigms have been converted into present-day folk fiddle construction for more effective playing (in terms of ergonomy and sound), (2) playing technique has been based on paradigms borrowed from distant cultures (in the absence of the local ones), (3) the repertoire has been created by overlapping paradigms of folk music and popular music in order to produce a repertoire acceptable for today’s listeners. Key words: chordophones, knee-fiddles, Polish folk music, fingernail technique. For more than a decade, we have been witnessing in Poland a strong activity of the “folky”1 music scene. By this term I understand music located at the intersection of folk music (usually Polish or from neighboring countries) and various genres of popular music. -
SILK ROAD: the Silk Road
SILK ROAD: The Silk Road (or Silk Routes) is an extensive interconnected network of trade routes across the Asian continent connecting East, South, and Western Asia with the Mediterranean world, as well as North and Northeast Africa and Europe. FIDDLE/VIOLIN: Turkic and Mongolian horsemen from Inner Asia were probably the world’s earliest fiddlers (see below). Their two-stringed upright fiddles called morin khuur were strung with horsehair strings, played with horsehair bows, and often feature a carved horse’s head at the end of the neck. The morin khuur produces a sound that is poetically described as “expansive and unrestrained”, like a wild horse neighing, or like a breeze in the grasslands. It is believed that these instruments eventually spread to China, India, the Byzantine Empire and the Middle East, where they developed into instruments such as the Erhu, the Chinese violin or 2-stringed fiddle, was introduced to China over a thousand years ago and probably came to China from Asia to the west along the silk road. The sound box of the Ehru is covered with python skin. The erhu is almost always tuned to the interval of a fifth. The inside string (nearest to player) is generally tuned to D4 and the outside string to A4. This is the same as the two middle strings of the violin. The violin in its present form emerged in early 16th-Century Northern Italy, where the port towns of Venice and Genoa maintained extensive ties to central Asia through the trade routes of the silk road. The violin family developed during the Renaissance period in Europe (16th century) when all arts flourished. -

ACET Junior Academies'
ACET Junior Academies’ Scheme of Work for music Year 5 Unit 1.1: A Musical Masque About this unit: This unit of work is linked to the History scheme of work HT 1.1 Post 1066 Study: The Tudors. It is a starting point for exploration into Tudor music. In it children will begin to learn about Tudor Dance music, in particular the Pavan as a popular Tudor dance. Children will identify its characteristic musical features and rhythms before attempting to dance the Pavan and performing their own Pavan melody over a drone accompaniment. Children will then move on to learn about traditional Tudor musical instruments before exploring Tudor songs and madrigal-style songs with a ‘fa, la, la, la’ refrain. Where they will compose their own lyrics to a madrigal melody. Fanfares are explored briefly before children work towards putting on a Tudor style banquet/concert combining elements of all the musical learning in to a class performance. Unit structure National Curriculum objectives: This unit is structured around six sequential music enquiries: 1. What is a Pavan? Links to previous and future National Curriculum 2. How do we perform a Pavan? units/objectives 3. What do Tudor instruments sound like? KS2 4. What is a Madrigal? ● Listen with attention to detail and recall sound with 5. What is a Fanfare? increasing aural memory. BBC Ten Pieces 6. A musical masque – banquet/concert. ● Appreciate and understand a wide range of high-quality live and recorded music drawn from different traditions and from great composers and musicians. ● Play and perform in solo ensemble contexts, using their voices and playing musical instruments with increasing accuracy, fluency, control and expression. -

Note the four strings clearly detailed by the artist. Other parts are sketchy, such as bridge, tail piece and finger board. There appears to be a hint of a finger board but these details are again, sketchy. The nut is suggested in sketchy form like the fingerboard. Elevation of the bridge and other setup details are not determinable. The form of the body and the sound holes are clear in this picture. The same picture, full view. It is important to get the best picture one can find of the original or wrong conclusions can be make – this picture looks to have only three strings, yet the more detailed reproduction of the same manuscript – from another source – clearly shows more detail including four strings and a hint of a finger board. Page 1 Southern English, "Tiberius" Psalter, c.1050 ("Musician from King David's suite" in British Museum, London, Cotton MS.Tib.C.VI, fol. 30v). Other period icons of similar instruments are worth examining before starting the final work on the above recreation of the English (Canterbury), Passionale of Augustine c.1100 fyddle French, Gradual of Nevers c.1060 ("Musician dancing, with legend Consonancia cuncta musica" from Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris, MS. lat.9449 The artist has shown us a line hinting at a finger board. Later instruments have longer fingerboards of two shades – the half closer to the nut being dark and the other half, closer to the bridge, being light and colored as the instrument. -
