Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The primary objective of this research was to quantitatively analyze traditional Japanese children's songs (warabeuta) to understand their regional musical characteristics. The study digitized a vast collection of songs, providing a comprehensive dataset for analysis. Using machine learning and GIS, the research identified significant regional differences in melodic types, particularly between Tokyo and Kyoto. This analysis demonstrated how musical expressions are culturally intertwined and formed. The findings contribute to musicology, linguistics, and cultural anthropology, offering new insights into the relationship between music and culture. This research lays the foundation for future studies and aids in the preservation and education of traditional Japanese music.
