Stepping in the Madang
Memory, Knowledge, and Experience
This article reflects on the knowledge and experience of North Korean music and dance among North Koreans who now reside in Britain. In particular, we explore their memories from before they escaped the isolated so-called socialist paradise. North Koreans mostly arrived in Britain between 2004 and 2008; they arrived as refugees and applied for asylum. Although the last four decades has seen much ethnomusicological research on music and migration,…
Dance and Ideology in North Korea
Ch’oe Sŭnghŭi (J. Sai Shōki) was the most celebrated Korean dancer of the twentieth century. In the 1930s, she developed a set of dances for the new stages of urban Korea, Japan, and beyond that showcased elements taken from Korean tradition, particularly from “folk” dances (minsok muyong). In 1946, after Korea’s division at the end of the Pacific War, she moved to Pyongyang, where her dances became the foundations of North Korea’s “national” dan…
Musical instruments as tangible cultural heritage and as/for intangible cultural heritage
Musical instruments are central components of both the tangible and intangible heritage. However, discourse about music as intangible cultural heritage frequently overlooks the importance of instruments in conserving traditions inherited from the past and making live performance possible in the present, while curating instruments as tangible heritage often neglects their function for making music. This article explores two interrelated research q…
Songs for "Great Leaders"
North Korea is often said to be unknown: a reclusive and secretive state. It behaves as if the whole country is a theater that projects itself through performance. Song, together with other music and dance production, forms the soundtrack to the theater of daily life, embedding messages that tell the official history, the exploits of leaders, and the socialist utopia yet-to-come. Songs form the foundation stones of revolutionary operas, of instru…

K-Pop as a Means to an End among Thai Youth
Assessments of the impact of K-pop beyond Korea, and of other aspects within the broader Korean Wave, often focus on groups of fans. The research reported here began from an intention to move beyond fandom, encouraged by a challenge to demonstrate that members of the British Thai community, aware of their heritage in Southeast Asia but growing up in the eclectic cultural mix of contemporary Britain, were interested in K-pop. We respond to academi…
Performing Nostalgia
Migration studies is an area of increasing significance in musicology as in other disciplines. How do migrants express and imagine themselves through musical practice? How does music help them to construct social imaginaries and to cope with longings and belongings? In this study of migration music in postsocialist Albania, Eckehard Pistrick identifies links between sound, space, emotionality and mobility in performance, provides new insights int…
Amber Liu, K-Pop Tomboy
South Korean mainstream pop music, known simply as K-Pop, has become such a huge phenomenon in recent years that it is playing a decisive role in reshaping Korean culture and identity. Indeed, the K-Pop phenomenon is much more than just something musical, intertwining a complexity of sound, performance, ethnicity and gender. A contextual analysis needs therefore to take all these elements into consideration. This paper aims to show how K-Pop play…
SamulNori
SamulNori is a quartet of Korean percussionists that first performed together on stage in February 1978. The quartet’s name, coined a few months later by the Korean folklorist Shim Usŏng, means ‘four things play’. SamulNori rapidly gained considerable popularity, so much so that many additional groups emerged, and the distinct repertory and style of performance fostered by SamulNori spawned a genre, samulnori. Today, samulnori is, arguably, Korea…

Korean music before and after the West
It is argued that a historically informed approach to the study of Oceania facilitates the understanding of how Oceanian and European cultures were both respectively and mutually shaped by centuries of cross-cultural contact and exchange. Recent scholarship on Oceania's networks of knowledge and culture obviates the need to reconstruct forgotten forms of musical practice or trace strands of musical dissemination and appropriation. Encounter music…
Fadrique Furió Ceriol's Machiavellian vocabulary of contingency
Over two decades ago Helena Puigdomenech demonstrated that Niccolò Machiavelli's political treatises circulated openly in Spain for roughly thirty years in the second half of the sixteenth century. Despite the Roman Index of 1559, Machiavelli was not prohibited in Spain until Quiroga's Index of 1583. Soon after this date, Machiavelli's fortune in Spain would become inevitably linked to the Spanish anti‐Machiavellian tradition, which Pedro de Riba…
Music as Intangible Cultural Heritage

John Blacking
For the Venda people of Southern Africa, and for many other African peoples, musical communication in general, and the particular bodily experiences that could be generated by polyphonic performance, were linked to other experiences and ideas. Music can be profoundly moving by means of the resonance that people can establish between the tone-stress and ideal motion of music and the nervous tension and motor impulse of their bodies. But no music h…

Introduction Les mouvements de sauvegarde et de conservation suivent des voies similaires dans divers pays, comme l’atteste une comparaison des travaux de Turino (1984), El Shawan (1984) et Henry (1989). Lorsqu’ils se superposent a l’elan nationaliste, la tradition est redefinie ou reinventee (Hobsbawm 1983 : 7), comme Kim Kwang-ŏk (1988) l’a demontre pour la Coree. Dans bien des cas, l’appel initial a la preservation s’avere donc etre un stratag…

Paper Symbols in Chindo "Ssikkim Kut"
Le rituel (kut) appelé ssikim kut, — ssikkim signifiant 'laver [autrui]" — est sans doute l'une des cérémonies chamaniques les plus complexes de la Corée. Ce rituel est, encore de nos jours, exécuté pour les morts dans les régions rurales de la province du Chôlla du Sud, dans le sud-ouest de la Corée. L'île de Chindo (65.000 habitants en 1988) en conserve probablement le meilleur exemple, comme le montre la promotion d'un groupe d'exécutants de C…

Why Do It That Way? Rhythmic Models and Motifs in Korean Percussion Bands
examination of Chindo bands demonstrates rhythmic modelling in local village rituals. Rhythmic models are usually described in terms of shibi ch'ae, but I make a distinction between these simple patterns and the more complex marches and dances that typify musicians who today play primarily for entertainment. Professional musicians do retain root models, as changdan (rhythmic cycles), which underpin most Korean court and folk music, but their piec…

Bands, Songs, and Shamanistic Rituals
An ethnography of music making on Chindo Island, South Korea, based on fieldwork conducted between 1982 and 1984. A division is made between percussion bands (nongak or p'ungmul), songs (for work, entertainment and death) and shaman rituals (in particular Ssikkim kut), their history, current state and preservation. Each genre is considered in its national perspective, tracing histories and uses
