Research Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to explore into macrocosmic perspectives for hereby proposed "applicative culturology" by way of observing the musics and sonic culture of Okinawa mainly in viewpoints from outside. Furthermore, it has a secondary objective to raise questions to society at large as to raison d'etre of academia through : 1) researches in sonic culture of Okinawa and its surrounding geographical areas whether nearby or distant ; 2) researches in percussion and string instruments ; 3) understanding the variety of vocal expression ; and 4) comparison of the results of these researches with the other research activities obtained prior to and/or in parallel with this particular grant-in-aid study.
Concretely speaking, the past and present of the sonic world and variety of musical expressions of Okinawa have been compared with those of the adjacent or even distant neigbours (such as the mainland Japan, the Korean peninsular, southern China, Oceania and Australia. An important conclusion may be that the world of the string and percussion instruments was the basics for their humanity and musicality as is the case with other cultures ; however, the minute details may be of more importance.
