{"title":"No Notation Needed: The Construction and Politics of Transnational Thai Identity through the Oral Transmission of Classical Music","authors":"Nattapol Wisuttipat","doi":"10.1353/amu.2020.0018","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/amu.2020.0018","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:Cultural classes such as Thai classical music and dance are integral to almost every Thai community in the United States.

In this article I examine Thai classical music pedagogy outside its home context, particularly in the United States, by arguing that oral transmission and rote learning are key to transmitting ideas about cultural identity. I also critically investigate which version of khwaampenthai is being constructed through this mode of cultural production.

At times, Merchant could have also been more detailed about the significance of these women’s choices. Merchant’s book is remarkably accessible for readers not familiar with Central Asia. She provides succinct contextual information in the book’s introduction and engages with related literature on Central Asia and ethnomusicology throughout her text, providing a gateway into reading more about the region. Her focus on repertoire and pedagogy would make the book good for an upper-division topical music course, as it could help music students think critically about student-teacher relationships and the role of orality in learning notation-based music traditions in institutional settings. Additionally, Merchant’s work is an example of a true intersectional interpretation—rather than portraying femininity as additive, she demonstrates how modernizing and institutionalizing forces in music traditions together contribute to a femininity that appears to naturally embody nationalism. Scholars who engage with feminist theory will find her work worth reading. Through biography and ethnographic details, Merchant shows how women have always been active agents in Central Asian music traditions, shaping how people experience and understand national culture.","PeriodicalId":43622,"journal":{"name":"ASIAN MUSIC","volume":"51 1","pages":"154 - 158"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/amu.2020.0027","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47400601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I analyze three implicit performance logics by which kāfī singers incorporate explication and storytelling into their performances, with each logic engaging in distinct ways with the allusive meanings of Sufi poetic texts. This article thus illuminates how the performative process of linking aspects of Islamic belief, history, and philosophy to sympathy for narrative protagonists and to feelings born of lived experience encourages the rich indexicality that undergirds musical affectivity.","PeriodicalId":43622,"journal":{"name":"ASIAN MUSIC","volume":"51 1","pages":"39 - 71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/amu.2020.0019","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47827713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I begin by providing a brief historical background about the construction of social and official religious identities. I then investigate how the tension between practiced and prescribed identities forced Singaporean uṟumi mēḷam groups to be resilient. Finally, I examine how the transnational uṟumi mēḷam network has inspired Singaporean uṟumi mēḷam musicians to adopt strategies to sustain their musical tradition. By examining these strategies and their outcomes, I maintain that Singaporean uṟumi mēḷam groups have been able to refashion themselves in the image of popular culture icons.","PeriodicalId":43622,"journal":{"name":"ASIAN MUSIC","volume":"51 1","pages":"105 - 138"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/amu.2020.0021","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49327657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
