Abstract

The characteristics of musically or culturally defined virtuosos in diverse music traditions deserve investigation with regard to their connection to music. This study was designed to identify virtuosos within the domain of Korean music (KM) through the lens of current professional performers in KM ( N = 315). Pursuing this aim, we created 45 components structured into the dimensions involving KM virtuosos’ musicianship, music performance, and other behavioral features based on musicological and empirical studies of KM. Using exploratory factor analysis (EFA), we generated a single factorial structure of 11 factors: social recognition of virtuoso, informed knowledge of KM, musicality for contemporary KM, individuality, musical communication, musicality for KM, performance proficiency for KM, musical mastery, established virtuosity in KM, collaborative music performance, and KM creation. The findings suggest that the meaningfully related variables in the factors represent sophisticated concepts of KM virtuosos at present, surpassing the historically defined meaning of virtuosos. The essence of KM, along with its accompanying social systems and phenomena for recognizing KM virtuosos, may hold the key to comprehending the attributes of virtuosos. The results are expected to enhance the discourse on the presence of virtuosos identified within a specific cultural domain.

识别音乐特定的大师:韩国音乐大师的探索性因素分析

在不同的音乐传统中，音乐或文化定义的演奏家的特征值得研究他们与音乐的联系。这项研究旨在通过韩国音乐领域（KM）当前专业表演者的视角来识别韩国音乐领域的艺术大师 = 315）。为了实现这一目标，我们在对知识管理的音乐学和实证研究的基础上，创建了45个维度，这些维度涉及知识管理演奏家的音乐才能、音乐表现和其他行为特征。使用探索性因素分析（EFA），我们生成了11个因素的单因子结构：社会对演奏家的认可、知识管理的知情知识，当代KM的音乐性、个性、音乐交流、KM的音乐度、KM的表演熟练度、音乐精通度、KM中的既定精湛技艺、合作音乐表演和KM创作。研究结果表明，这些因素中有意义的相关变量代表了知识管理专家目前的复杂概念，超过了专家的历史定义。知识管理的本质及其伴随的社会制度和现象是认识知识管理大师的关键。研究结果有望加强对特定文化领域内艺术大师存在的讨论。
