  • Cradle of Drone-Overtone and Timbre-Centered Music

    Carole PeggARTICLEAsian Music2021

    This paper argues that the cultural politics of drone-overtone music ("throatsinging," or "overtone-singing") should more often consider the voices of its heritage bearers, formerly nomadic peoples of the international Altai Mountain range and its adjacent areas, also referred to here as Greater Altai. Drawing on fieldwork in the Mongolian Altai and Russian Altai, it presents a series of mutually implicated local cultural landscapes into which In…

  • Performing Ethnic Personhood in Contemporary Khakassia

    Carole Pegg, Stanislav UgdezhekovARTICLEInner Asia2005Cited by: 1

    This paper looks at how ethnicity as an aspect of personhood is 'performed' among academics and musicians in the contemporary southern Siberian Republic of Khakassia, which is a member of the Russian Federation. It gives a nineteenth-century assessment of musical ethnicity among the Abakan Tatars (i.e. Kachins, Sagais, Bel'tirs, Kyzyls and Koibals), describes the introduction during the Soviet period of the ethnonym 'Khakas' through the academic …

  • Ritual, religion and magic in West Mongolian (Oirad) heroic epic performance

    Carole PeggARTICLEBritish Journal of Ethnomusicology1995Cited by: 2

    This paper is based on the multiple voices of bards of different ethnic groups, visited during fieldwork in West Mongolia in 1989 and 1990. It looks briefly at the brutal demise of heroic epic performance under the Soviet regime (1921–90) and questions Vladimirtsov's contention that the steppe aristocracy was the creator, bearer, preserver and disseminator of Oirad epics. It suggests instead that epic performance was a ritual and magical activity…

  • Mongolian conceptualizations of overtone singing(xöömii)

    Carole PeggARTICLEBritish Journal of Ethnomusicology1992Cited by: 2References: 8

    Based on field work in western Mongolia during 1989 and 1990, this paper relates Mongolian xöömii or overtone singing to its social context and to the cognitive world of the performers. It looks at secular performance contexts, theories of origin, legendary/historical development, recent transformation into an art form, traditional training methods and transmission, Mongolian classification of xöömii, and its relationship with nature and shamanis…

  • Factors affecting the musical choices of audiences in East Suffolk, England

    Open AccessCarole PeggARTICLEPopular Music1984References: 4

    In discussing humanly organised sound in How Musical is Man? , John Blacking points out that musical ability is not only the prerogative of those who make music. Without the capacity of an audience for structured listening, he says, there would be no music and no musical communication (Blacking 1973, p. 9). The construction of a sound-ideal, that is the acceptance or rejection of patterns of sound as music or non-music, is part of the musical pro…
