Outline of Research at the Start

This project is devoted to finding more effective educational methods of Japanese Traditional Music through the case study of Hanawa-bayashi. The results will include book publications, creation of interactive websites, and creation of new local musics in places music traditions have been lost.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements

今年度の研究成果の中心としては、秋田県鹿角市花輪での花輪ばやしと千葉県松戸市での万作踊りについては、フィールドワークや直接のパフォーマンス、関係者との直接の交流を通して研究を続けました。花輪ばやしの場合は、三味線、篠笛及び太鼓の音楽パートがどのように作られ、表現されるかをより明らかにするために、私は秋田県でフィールドワークし、全12曲を太棹三味線で演奏するとともに、代表的な曲である「本ばやし」の太鼓と篠笛の演奏をより深く研究しました。松戸の万作踊りの場合では、三味線、太鼓及び踊りのパートがどのように作られ、表現されるかをより明らかにするために、千葉県でフィールドワークし、万作踊りの三つの曲を三味線で演奏するとともに、10月と12月に、松戸市の舞台で四つの演奏会にも万作踊りの伴奏者として一人で三味線を演奏しました。以上のような活動の成果と、昨年度の三味線の「時間」や「場所」とのつながりや表現力についての成果を理論的・音楽的な構造として、今年度は五つの曲の新作を作曲・演奏しました。これらの成果と結論から、次年度には、松戸市内のコミュニティが新しい音楽体験に参加し、教育と地域的つながりの両方を促進することによって、私の理論をさらに推し進めたいと考えています

2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.

Reason

This past year I was able to take the theoretical framework created from the fieldwork on shamisen and start putting it into action through creating new compositions, performing those compositions, and gaining direct feedback from educators, musicians, and listeners. These activities revealed how the music was being received, and giving me guidance for the next issues I needed to solve musically. Also, from these activities, I was able to connect with more community members excited about supporting this project. Therefore, all of this has laid the foundation for the research and activities that need to move forward this next research year. This next year, I have begun working more deeply with community members within Matsudo city and Kazuno city to create new traditional music for the communities there as well as promotion opportunities for the traditional music that is being overlooked. In short, due to what I was able to accomplish through my research so far, I look forward to moving forward and putting all of my theories and activities to the test.

Strategy for Future Research Activity

This year I plan on working on a new traditional piece with members of the Matsudo city community. This will include working with the hayashi taiko group Tsuzumi-ren as well as the tsugaru shamisen group Enjyu-kumi. I have also been in touch with organizers of local festivals and educational board for possible presentation locations. On top of this, I became a member of Matsudo's Mansaku-odori Preservation Society. Through this, I hope to not only support and promote each group individually, but create more cross connections of mutual support for the promotion of both traditional and new activities for the Matsudo community at large.
Furthermore, my findings will be presented and further deepen at three difference academic conferences, both abroad and within Japan. I will work closely with other scholars and experts on the topic of community music making and musical analysis of instruments outside the western tradition to create not only more awareness of the activities going on in these small communities, but bring a foundation framework for the appreciation for these types of musics as a whole.
