Traditional Japanese Music and Musical Instruments: The New Edition by William P. Malm,

Traditional Japanese Music and Musical Instruments: The New Edition by William P. Malm,
When William Malm published his wide-ranging study of traditional Japanese music in 1959, it was the first time in the twentieth century that such work had been carried out in a Western language. Malm's book has still not been replaced as the single most interesting and authoritative text on the subject. But until now it was never revised or updated, nor were its illustrations ever changed. With the present publication, however, an extensively improved edition that includes a CD of sample music has been made available. Professor Malm's aim has always been to attract the layman reader as well as the musicologist, which has given this book its strength and durability. The writing is lively and personal, and is accompanied by a generous number of drawings and photos of players and their instruments. The book opens with a historical outline of Japan's musical life, then moves on to its religious music, Shinto and Buddhist; its court music; the music of the Noh drama; and the music of specific instruments: biwa, shakuhachi, koto, and shamisen. After examining the components of Kabuki music, it closes with a chapter on folk music and the music of other cultures in Japan. And to put all this in a practical context, a CD is provided, giving examples of these different forms. Whether your interest is in a particular form of Japanese music -- the marvelous sonority of the bamboo flute, for example -- or in music in general, Malm's book will more than satisfy your curiosity.



Traditional African and Oriental Music
Traditional African and Oriental Music
People are stimulated and entertained by the fascinating sounds and rhythms of non-Western music yet they generally know little about its underlying principles. This detailed and hugely informative reference book examines the musical traditions of these very diverse cultures and explains how each one is affected by the native philosophies, religions and social structures. In African music, for example, music is dominated by trance-inducing rhythm and largely percussive instruments. In Islamic countries, music is primarily vocal and is often ideologically viewed with suspicion. Indian music, on the other hand, balances melodic and rhythmical expressions both in its secular and sacred contexts and, unlike Western music, its rhythmic thinking is additive rather than divisionist. In contrast, Chinese music is rhythmically 'square', that is predictably in two or four beats. Japanese music reflects the highly sophisticated styles of the courts, whereas the music of Bali and Java shows an ingenious amalgamation of Indian, Chinese and Islamic influences with its native traditions. This comprehensive introduction includes sections on the rhythm, melody, harmony and traditional instruments of the different regions. 'Having travelled throughout the world as a performing musician, it is clear that music is not only a universal language but also a medicine to us all. Through his publication Otto Karolyi has stirred our curiousity to delve further into the music and culture of the different continents.
