Secara kualitas, banyak perajin Dambus tersebar di seluruh Provinsi Kepulauan Bangka Belitung yang memproduksi instrumen ini hingga dipasarkan ke luar negeri. Sementara itu, secara kuantitas, jumlah pembuat, pemain, komunitas, dan penikmat musik Dambus juga terus meningkat. Namun, perkembangan ini belum diimbangi dengan sistem pelestarian yang memadai. Selama ini, pembelajaran Dambus dilakukan secara lisan, seperti halnya tradisi musik tradisional pada umumnya, sehingga berpotensi punah seiring waktu.

In terms of quality, numerous Dambus craftsmen are spread across the Bangka Belitung Province, producing instruments that are even marketed internationally. Quantitatively, the number of makers, performers, communities, and enthusiasts of Dambus music continues to grow. However, this progress has not been matched by an adequate preservation system. Until now, Dambus learning has been conducted orally, as is common in traditional music practices, making it vulnerable to extinction over time. This study aims to design a written notation–based learning system for Dambus as a means of preservation and documentation. The model developed adapts guitar teaching methods but is modified to suit the distinctive characteristics of the Dambus instrument. The instructional framework is structured gradually, beginning with basic techniques, notation, and fundamental exercises. It is expected that this notation-based learning system will help strengthen the existence of Dambus music and encourage the creation of new, well-documented musical works.\n\nKeywords:  Traditional music of Bangka; instrumental music pedagogy; music notation system; Dambus","source":"DOAJ","year":2024,"language":"","subjects":["Music","Musical instruction and study"],"doi":"10.24821/promusika.v12i2.15682","url":"https://journal.isi.ac.id/index.php/promusika/article/view/15682","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":68},{"id":"doaj_10.32782/art/2024.3.25","title":"СТРУКТУРНО-СЕМАНТИЧНИЙ ІНВАРІАНТ МУЗИЧНОГО ТЕКСТУ ЯК ТЕКСТУ КУЛЬТУРИ: ПРАКТИЧНИЙ АСПЕКТ","authors":[{"name":"Олег Степанович Смоляк"},{"name":"Богдан Остапович Водяний"},{"name":"Ірина Вікторівна Романюк"}],"abstract":"\nУ статті представлено новітні аналітичні алгоритми щодо реального музичного тексту як Тексту культури, що розглядається в ролі його структурно-семантичного інваріанту як засобу комунікації. Методи дослідження – структурно-герменевтичний, моделювання, функціональний. Результати дослідження формулюються на основі доведення того, що конструкти цього інваріанту володіють синергічною природою – тісною взаємодією та наскрізністю вияву. Задля унаочнення цієї взаємодії пропонується модель архітектоніки Світу музики як звукоінтонаційного середовища та мистецтва інтонованого смислу. Це – концентрично розташовані площини, які є рівнями його побудови. А саме: музичні лексеми (осереддя моделі); інтонаційний рельєф тематичного матеріалу; тип композиційно-драматургічної логіки; інваріант жанрової форми; інваріант стилю; історичний тип культури у вимірах «духовної ситуації часу»; історично актуальна світоглядна парадигма; інтонаційний континуум. Наголосимо, що поміж названими конструктами моделі існують взаємозумовлюючі звʼязки, у яких щоразу «просвічує» слід інших конструктів. Тому велике значення має як доцентровий, так і відцентровий рух від осереддя моделі до її замикаючого «поля», який фактично пронизує усю модель ідеєю щодо інтонаційної природи Світу музики в цілому. Практичну доцільність розробленої моделі забезпечено новітніми поняттями та категоріями сучасного систематичного музикознавства зразка «інтонаційна модель» (В. Москаленко), «інтонаційний образ світу» (Ю. Чекан), «типологія композиційно-драматургічного структурування» (Н. Горюхіна), «семантика жанрової форми» (М. Арановський, Т. Симонова); «металогіка стилю» (О. Завʼялова, М. Ярко), «психоаналітичні виміри індивідуального композиторського стилю» (М. Ярко), «національно-культурна ідентичність у матрицях етнічної та національної форм ідентичності» (М. Ярко), «алюзійний спосіб розвитку національного стилю» (М. Ярко), «українська академічна пісня» (Б. Водяний, Т. Задорожна) та ін. Висновкові судження щодо проведеного дослідження та його практичне значення тісно повʼязані з музикознавчою та музично-освітньою практикою: відомості щодо архітектоніки Світу музики та структурно-семантичного інваріанту музичного тексту як Тексту культури здатні забезпечувати високу міру праксеологічного (раціонально-логічного й ефективного) та евристичного (творчого) потенціалу як дослідницької, так і навчально-освітньої практики. Зокрема, перспективи подальших досліджень в обраному напрямі бачаться у звʼязку з проекціями розвитку когнітивної експансії свідомості в намірі глибокого пізнання духовного світу мистецької творчості.\n","source":"DOAJ","year":2024,"language":"","subjects":["Music"],"doi":"10.32782/art/2024.3.25","url":"https://journals.spu.sumy.ua/index.php/art/article/view/423","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":68},{"id":"doaj_10.56620/2587-9731-2024-4-112-134","title":"Interpretive Restoration: Othmar Schoeck’s Das Schloß Dürande in a New Edition","authors":[{"name":"Yulia S. Veksler"}],"abstract":"\n    The article highlights a high-profile project by the Bern Academy of Arts to bring back into musical life one of the key works in the history of 20th-century Swiss music — Othmar Schoeck’s opera Das Schloß Dürande (1941). For many decades, despite its manifest musical merits, the performance of this composition seemed absolutely impossible due to the political overtones with which it is associated. Various “interpretive restoration” strategies were aimed at creating a new version of the opera. In the first place, the libretto, which was created by the Nazi writer Hermann Burte and based on the novella of the same name by the 19th-century German romantic author Joseph Eichendorff, underwent significant revision. The rather low literary level of the original libretto, which employed a large number of ideological clichés ad slogans, required the replacement of more than half of the text, essentially involving its rewriting based on the appropriate verse texts written by Eichendorff. The changes also affected the vocal part. In addition, a careful study of historical documents made it possible to clarify the circumstances of the opera’s premiere, which took place in Nazi Berlin in 1943. After a mere four performances, the opera was removed at the request of the Third Reich ideologist, Hermann Göring. New biographical information has also more fully revealed the position of Schoeck, who was not a supporter of National Socialism. Considering that “being Swiss” meant adopting a scrupulous attitude of “neutrality”, the composer collaborated with the Nazis for career reasons. The result of many years of work on the project was the performance of the updated opera Daß Schloß Dürande at the Meiningen Theatre in 2019. It didn’t convince everyone. However, the determining factor in assessing the opera was not so much the quality of the music and libretto, but rather the problematic history of its creation and reception in an ideological context. Thus, even in its new “denazified” version, Das Schloß Dürande remains closely connected with the past.","source":"DOAJ","year":2024,"language":"","subjects":["Music"],"doi":"10.56620/2587-9731-2024-4-112-134","url":"https://gnesinsjournal.ru/index.php/CM/article/view/182","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":68},{"id":"ss_ab4040787d59d53ff2b096b39e3678cf9677bd26","title":"Music Recommendation Based on Literary Preferences in Artificial Intelligence","authors":[{"name":"Bogdan-Sorin Ilies"},{"name":"Camelia-Florina Andor"}],"abstract":"While being different forms of art, literature and music are similar in being able to convey symbolism, narrative and emotion.

However, the topic of music recommendations based on other arts or abstract human interests using artificial intelligence remains only briefly touched. This research aims to explore and extend this field, by employing techniques meant to provide relevant music suggestions stemming from literary tastes and to demonstrate the capacity of an artificial intelligence model to make accurate recommendations, by establishing connections between the semantic meanings and conveyed feelings of book snippets and song lyrics. Lastly, this work intends to contribute to the field of natural language processing in artificial intelligence, by bridging the gap between two prominent cultural arts in this day and age, by building an exploration base for correlating music with other forms of art.","source":"Semantic Scholar","year":2024,"language":"en","subjects":null,"doi":"10.1109/ICECCME62383.2024.10796874","url":"https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/ab4040787d59d53ff2b096b39e3678cf9677bd26","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":68},{"id":"doaj_10.5206/notabene.v16i1.16612","title":"\"An Airy Spirit\": Developing Identity Through Music, Performance, and Perception","authors":[{"name":"Kiara Hosie"}],"abstract":"\nHow do audiences come to understand a character who appears to lack a discrete performed identity?

To facilitate this exploration, I outline Ariel’s characterisation across six productions from the Renaissance, Restoration, and modern-day on two levels: textual (concerning how culturally-bound theories of magic and gender affect interpretations of the play’s script), and performed (concerning practical decisions such gender casting, voice type, and visual design). Across both the textual and performed levels, I emphasise the roles of socio-cultural contexts and resultant audience perceptions in informing Ariel’s identity in each production, ultimately proposing that while Ariel’s textual identity as a genderless spirit remains relatively stable from the Renaissance to the modern-day, each production of The Tempest creates a new performed identity for the character through dynamic interactions between culture, history, directors, performers, and audiences.\n","source":"DOAJ","year":2023,"language":"","subjects":["Music"],"doi":"10.5206/notabene.v16i1.16612","url":"https://ojs.lib.uwo.ca/index.php/notabene/article/view/16612","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":67},{"id":"doaj_10.26650/CONS2023-1365545","title":"Use of the DoctorVox Device for Basic Vocal Exercises Contribution to Performance","authors":[{"name":"Seta Kürkçüoğlu"},{"name":"Nesibe Özgül Turgay"},{"name":"M.

Who would be the recipient of the „musical message” in this case – one, many, all of humanity, as in the IV parts of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony? Or maybe just Captain Grant’s children? And how pertinent is the extrapolation of notional-discursive schema and logic to music as Mattheson did in Der Vollkommene Kapellmeister? Because this phrase – the message of music – immediately refers to both the „suggestive” neutrality of musical sounds and the „emotional” irrelevance of the relationships between them. Sounds are just sounds. Is a chord the analogy of the word, the melody the analogy of the phrase, and a whole articulation the substitute of a speech? Is music a language? Or, indeed, being both sonorous, but also processual and symbolic, just like spoken language, music does not connote in the same way. And if the language has prescribed references, then music does not. A chord, a melody, let alone a counterpoint, have no predetermined meaning, not even one resembling a notional one, even after the performance is over.

Яковчука: параметри художньої цілісності","authors":[{"name":"O. P. Kushniruk"}],"abstract":"Актуальність. Притаманна сучасному етапу історії музики модифікація парадигми жанру симфонії зумовила вивчення її нових інваріантів в аспекті досягнення художньої цілісності. Вагомий симфонічний доробок О. Яковчука, що представляє цілий спектр різноманітних рішень ідеї симфонізму, є перспективною темою для такого дослідження.\nМета дослідження — висвітлити параметри художньої цілісності Симфонії № 7 «Майдан» (2015) О. Яковчука в контексті інноваційного підходу митця до жанру симфонії, зокрема акцентування монологічності як суттєвого засобу оновлення жанру.\nМетодологія. Дослідження основане на застосуванні культурологічного підходу, джерелознавчого, текстологічного методів, а також методів цілісного аналізу та інтерв’ювання. \nРезультати. Дослідження засвідчило тенденцію до концентрації авторського вислову, що відбилася в одночастинності твору. Значну роль у становленні цілісності відіграє детально продуманий тематизм на основі інтонаційних зв’язків. Роздуми автора про особистість у революції окреслили увагу до монологічного чинника у вигляді численних соло. Трагедійний задум спричинив впровадження хоралу мідних духових, авторського стильового прийому.\nНовизна. У статті вперше проаналізовано і надано оцінку художнім якостям симфонії № 7 «Майдан» О. Яковчука зважаючи на належність її до неканонічного типу жанру.\nПрактичне значення. Матеріали і висновки дослідження можна використовувати в процесі викладання курсів історії сучасної української музики, аналізу музичних форм, у класі симфонічного диригування, а також у наступних розвідках щодо шляхів розвитку жанру симфонії.\n","source":"DOAJ","year":2019,"language":"","subjects":["Fine Arts","Music and books on Music"],"doi":"10.31516/2410-5325.065.13","url":"http://ku-khsac.in.ua/article/view/185468","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":63}],"total":888445,"page":1,"page_size":20,"sources":["DOAJ","Semantic Scholar","CrossRef"],"query":"Music and books on Music"}
