Music Tradition

Ethiopia upholds unique cultural heritage and diverse music history in entire African continent. The traditional music heritage of Ethiopia has been globally recognized with its distinct music culture and symbolic manifestation. The traditional songs and music of the country revolves around core chord of their life and culture. The modern music of Ethiopia has been blended with combination of elements from traditional Ethiopian music and western music which has created a new trend in the music world. The music tradition of the country not only maintains the cultural identity but also maintains social cohesion through cultural expression at different social occasions and resists cultural changes infused through globalization. The globalization has brought a series of transformation and changes in the world of Ethiopian music through commercialization, commodification and digitalization of cultural expressions apart from hijacking the cultural rights of traditional musicians. The younger generations have been attracted towards western music undermining the aesthetic and cultural value of music tradition of the country. The international enactments relating to protection and safeguarding of cultural rights of people are yet to be appropriately translated into reality. The emergence of culture industries and entertainment houses has posed serious threats to local culture and led to disappearance of local traditions, musical heritage and their replacement by popular global music. The cultural homogeneity and commodification has replaced the multiplicity of cultures in this globalized era. This paper based on review of published articles and content analysis critically unfolds sensitive areas of cultural shock and violation of cultural rights exposed to traditional musicians and traditional singers of Ethiopia during last couple of decades.Int.

Insight Into

Introduction: Adolescents and young adults have been shown to be the age group most at risk of music-induced hearing loss (MIHL), which is already evident and increasing among this group. Objective: The purpose of this review is to provide further insight into the effectiveness of education programmes on attitude and behaviour towards loud music exposure in adolescents and young adults, and to suggest positive and influential ways of delivering hearing health education. Methods: Literature searches were conducted using various databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL). Authors went through the abstracts of these articles to identify those which were potentially relevant; subsequently the full articles were retrieved. Results: This review highlights the dangers of significant exposure to music on hearing mechanics in adolescents and young adults, and shows that this danger continues to increase with modern music culture. Because the consequences are not immediate, it is difficult for the young to perceive the seriousness of a problem that may not present itself for many years. Conventional education may go a little way in helping to raise awareness but a raised awareness of consequences does not, in itself, change behaviour. There is a significant gap in literature regarding effective methods of education that will inspire attitude change, and have a bearing on actions. Conclusion: This review has concluded that there is a lack of understanding of how to best influence and educate adolescents and young adults in a way that will motivate and encourage a change in listening habits. It is of vital importance that these groups are made aware of the immediate and future dangers, and how changes in listening behaviour do not necessarily lower their enjoyment.

Issues related to the classical samples of Uzbek classical music heritage occupy one of the leading places in the modern music culture. In this regard, among the Bukhara Shashmakomi, Fergana-Tashkent status roads, Khorezm status categories, Dutor status, in our opinion, are of great interest. In particular, the study of the generality and differences in the interpretation of their old rare and diverse new performance, in full case or in the recording of parts into a note, is of paramount importance. This article is about the status of Khorezm

The present article, developing a comprehensive approach to the classification of instrumental ensembles with a domra, aims at detecting the principles which can serve as a basis for the creation of various models of such objects. The author suggests analyzing the aspects of existence of the phenomenon under study from various positions: as music groups, and from the viewpoint of music compositions created for such groups. The article considers and compares the models of concert groups according to the number of their members and instrumental components, as well as according to the genre and style peculiarities of the repertoire of instrumental ensembles with a domra and their cooperation with composers. This classification method helps to comprehensively cover the work of a large number of musicians, both the members of ensembles and composers. The modeling of various systems of the creation of methods of classification of instrumental ensembles helps to study the peculiarities of the existence of such groups in modern music culture. The author arrives at the conclusion that at present, the music performance spectrum of Russia contains a vast range of ensembles with various instrumental contents and different numbers of members. The diversity of genre and style models of such groups is reflected in their repertoire - from folklore, classical music and modern composers schools to jazz, rock, pop-music and performance.

The aim of the article is to determine the theoretical value of verbal composer’s texts for musical research of the style phenomenon of “new simplicity” as an actual direction of composer’s practice at the turn of the XX–XXI centuries. The research methodology lies in the complex use of the musical-historical and cultural approach to the musical art of our time and individual composer’s styles, the systemic, structural-functional method and comparative studies in the study of verbal composer’s texts. Results. The main place of development of the composer’s reflections on the ideological-philo-sophical, artistic-aesthetic and linguistic-stylistic features of the “new simplicity” is the space of chamber communication (numerous interviews and conversations that exist both orally and in writing), which captures immediacy of the author’s statement and preserves its vivid intonation. Exceptional cases of the existence of the author’s voice in “large form” are represented by the verbal work of V. Martynov — the author of famous studies of modern music, which were understood as conceptual principles of composition in modern music culture in a broad semantic context that arises at the intersection of musicology, sociology and philosophy. In each of these areas of composer’s verbal self-representation we can find thoughts and concepts that are directly related to the phenomenon of “new simplicity”, the meaning of which is built as a result of deep personal understanding of the essence of musical art by each composer. Scientific novelty refers to the theoretical development of the style concept of “new simplicity” on the material of verbal composer’s discourse as a premise of musicological research. The practical significance lies in the use of research materials in special courses in musical-historical and musical-theoretical disciplines in higher educational institutions, as well as in musical performing practice.

The purpose of the article is to consider the genesis of the classical crossover and traces its path of development in the Ukrainian cultural and artistic space. The methodology involves a combination of historical and cultural, analytical, and comparative methods, which clarified the place of the classical crossover in modern music culture. The scientific novelty of the study is that for the first time in Ukrainian science, Ukrainian representatives of the classical crossover are considered. Conclusions. At the turn of the 20th – 21st centuries one of the areas that synthesize the achievements of academic and variety (rock, pop, electronic music) art has become a classic crossover. The origins of this trend are more ancient and go back to the 1960s when the first attempts were made to synthesize academic and variety performance. Famous Ukrainian singers of the academic school D. Hnatiuk, Yu. Gulyaev, A. Mokrenko, D. Petrinenko, L. Ostapenko performed both classical and variety works. Today, a striking example of the synthesis of academic and variety vocal art is the duets of F. Mustafayev – T. Samaya and V. Stepova – V. Sinchuk. Ukrainian singer, soprano of the new generation Arina Domski is the only representative of the Ukrainian scene, which consistently turns to the direction of the classical crossover, synthesizing in its performance variety and academic vocal repertoire.

The article presents the results of the analysis of musical art history in the context of the relationship between its emotional and rational constituents. The author traces the overall evolution of the world music, which in itself is a process of a complex dialectical relationship of the emotional and the rational, and which has been conditioned by the dominant philosophical worldview of a specific historical epoch, that determined the variability of artistic priorities, their emotional and intellectual balance or otherwise demarcating them by the dominating rational-mediated or emotional-sensory constituent. The research has established that the primitive culture is characterized by a syncretism of mythological and ideological ideas of the primitive human, which was reflected in the folk tradition; in the era of Ancient art, the Greek philosophers gave preference to reason while comprehending art, which went in line with the rational, philosophical and ideological orientation of the society at that time; in the Middle Ages era, this tendency fixed itself in the theological-rationalist search of the «fathers of the church», which was reflected in various genres of church music, that was religious, ascetically oriented, strictly regulated, as well as emotionally limited; the musical art of the Renaissance with its faith in the unlimited possibilities of harmonious human development is characterized by the unity and balance of the emotional and the intellectual; the New Age art was marked by new artistic trends, including Baroque and Classicism. The Baroque concept of musical art was consonant with the Renaissance tradition in terms of defining the main purpose of art as the need to reflect the sensuality of the real world; the art of the Classicism is subject to strict regulations, appealing to the human mind, instead of the senses, it is based on «rationalism», the prevailing philosophical worldview at the time; a harmonious combination of both emotional and personal experiences together with a deep intellectual comprehension of life is the leading feature of the art of the Romantic era; the modern music culture demonstrates the tendency to strengthen the rational constituent.

Under the background of the current era, comprehensively deepening the implementation of teaching reform is a key consideration for schools at all levels, especially for colleges and universities. In order to carry out quality education and improve students' comprehensive literacy and professional ability, some colleges and universities have integrated traditional music culture into the vocal music teaching, and combined it with modern music art, which provides a brand-new development for vocal music teaching. At the same time, it also provides opportunities for the inheritance and promotion of traditional music culture. This article briefly expounds the significance of integrating traditional music culture into college vocal music teaching, summarizes the current problems in the process of integrating traditional music culture with college vocal music teaching, and proposes a positive and effective specific path, hoping to provide certain help and reference for the development of the vocal teaching activities in colleges and universities.

Symphonic Work

The subject of this research is the period of Russian symphonic music of the 1960s – a new generation of composers, the “Sixtiers”, who brought remarkable artistic achievements and modern musical language. The author dwells on several key symphonic works by R. Shchedrin, S. Slonimsky, E. Denisov, Y. Falik, A. Schnittke, N. Karetnikov, and L. Prigozhin, who made an immense contribution to the revival of the Russian music culture. Special attention is given to Boris Tishchenko’s Symphony No.3, which encompasses the key trends of modern music into its stylistic orbit and opened new musical horizons. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that this article is first to examine the outstanding composition Symphony No.3 by B. Tishchenko in the context of stylistic and linguistic novelties of the 1960s. Detailed analysis is conducted on the role and place of the youngest out of the “Sixtiers” – the prominent Russian symphonist of the XX century Boris Ivanovich Tishchenko (1939–2010) – in the struggle for “new music”. The conclusion is made that Tishchenko became one of the leaders in the revival of the Russian symphonic style of the late XX century, and his Symphony No.3 fully reflected the rigorous pursuits of the entire generation of Soviet composers.

The purpose of the article is to identify the main trends in the influence of jazz and music forms on pop culture. The research methodology involves recourse to an interdisciplinary approach, as well as the use of comparative, historical, and logical methods of analysis and culturological approach in the study of these issues. The scientific novelty of the work is to generalize the problems of interaction and influence of jazz features of vocals on the development of pop vocals, expanding knowledge about the development of pop and song culture in general. Conclusions. The formation of pop singing is inextricably linked with the widespread of music halls, variety shows, cabaret, pop theaters, and more. By the end of the twentieth century, the media, the Internet, and screen culture led to the spread of pop vocals on a new level and pop singing became an integral part of everyday life. All these aspects and features of the jazz genre-style system had an indirect impact on the work of composers who turned to songwriting in the pop sphere, considered jazz as a mediator between "serious" and light musical forms while giving jazz techniques creative and methodological potential. Understanding the music culture of specific pop-jazz types (genres) of modern music influences the understanding of pop, pop vocals, and pop-jazz music as a phenomenon of art. Keywords: jazz musical forms, pop vocals, pop-song culture.
