  • Spirit of Place: Zeami’s Tōru and the Poetic Manifestation of Mugen Reviewed International journal

    Language:English   Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal)  

    Zeami Motokiyo was one of nō’s most important theorists and practitioners, and mugen nō one of his most sophisticated innovations. Using the play Tōru as a model, this article explores how Zeami’s nō utilised waka theory and Buddhist aesthetics that were current in his time. I will particularly focus on his use of utamakura, a poetic device of intertextual allusion via place names. In the second part of the article I will analyse Tōru’s text and music through the lens of Kyoto School philosopher Ueda Shizuteru’s theory of language. In positioning poetic spirits of place on stage, Zeami shows the power of language to manifest something like conventional reality. When watching mugen nō, the music and poetry combine to create a place wherein the audience shares the aesthetic-spiritual experience of the spirit of place manifesting in our communal mind. His staging of the opening up of the hollow expanse is the beauty of Zeami’s art.

    世阿弥元清は能の最も重要な理論家・実践家の一人であり、夢幻能は彼の最も洗練された革新の一つであった。本稿では、『融』を題材に、世阿弥の能が当時の和歌理論や仏教的美学をどのように活用していたかを探る。特に、歌枕という地名による相互引用の詩的装置に注目する。第二部では、京都学派の哲学者である上田閑照の言語理論のレンズを通して、『融』のテキストと音楽を分析することにする。世阿弥は、詩的な地霊を舞台上に配置することで、従来の現実のようなものを顕在化させる言語の力を示す。夢幻能を見るとき、音楽と詩が一体となって、観客が美的精神的な体験を共有し、共同体の心の中に場所の精神が顕在化する場を作り出す。空洞の広がりの演出は、世阿弥の芸術の美しさである。

  • Shō and u: An exploration of physical and generic limitations through a decade of collaboration avec Ko Ishikawa Invited International conference

    Daryl Jamieson, François-Xavier Féron

    Venue:Ircam, salle Stravinsky   Country:France  

    Over the past 10 years I have written five chamber or solo pieces for shō and/or u, all of which were written for Ko Ishikawa. These are Spectral (for Kazuo Ohno) (2012), fallen fragments (2015), fallings (2016), Stravaig (2017), and Descnats 1 (2020). Over these five pieces, I have been exploring the limits of what the shō and u can do. Working at the borders of instrumental and conventional limitations, I have been experimenting in order to discover where perceived limits are actual and hard (ie, immutable facts based in the physicality of the instruments), and where those limits are merely conventional and in reality quite porous (and thus able to be transcended).

    In this paper, by reexamining this decade-long process of collaboration and experimentation, I will show how my approach has changed/is changing through growing familiarity with the instrument (which I do not yet play myself), with its tradition, and with Ishikawa-san as a performer. I will share some of my conceptual approaches to composition and how they informed my approach to writing for the shō and u, and I will also introduce some of the practical results of these experiments – things that the instruments can and cannot do.

  • Being at play in the twofold sonic world: Cassandra Miller’s Duet for Cello and Orchestra through the lens of Ueda Shizuteru’s aesthetics International conference

    2022.10 

     More details

    Event date: 2022.10

    Venue:International Convention Center at Jeonbuk National University   Country:Korea, Republic of  

    The aesthetics of Ueda Shizuteru focusses on the potential afforded by certain artworks to illuminate, if only for an instant, the true nature of reality – an ontology which for him and other philosophers of the Kyoto School is a twofold world of conventional reality enveloped in a hollow expanse of limitless possibilities. Though Ueda’s aesthetics is principally concerned with poetry, artwork, and the traditional Japanese music theatre form nō, in this paper I will develop the argument that music in the experimental tradition – ‘non-fictional’ music which plays with and defamiliarises our sense of expectations about conventional reality rather than building a fictional sonic world – affords being listened to, analysed, and understood in a similar manner. Listening through the lens of Ueda’s aesthetics brings a radical new sense of meaning to experimental music, and offers a new aesthetic tool for understanding the spiritual/emotional affect of music which falls outside the mainstream of the contemporary avant-garde.
    As a case study, I will analyse Cassandra Miller’s Duet for Cello and Orchestra (2015), a piece which is based on Miller’s painstakingly accurate transcription of an Italian folksong performed by Maria Carta, ‘Trallallera’. I will show how, through its transcription/appropriation of a found sonic object as well as in the clearly-defined (but then subverted) roles of the cello and orchestra, Duet plays with distorted reflections of ‘reality’ and thence reveals the hollow artificiality of our conventional mental constructs of form, genre, culture, and ‘reality’ itself.

  • Is nowhere free of bad tidings?: Artistic response to the climate crisis through Japanese mappō thought International conference

    Over a three year period from 2014-17, as part of my artistic research into aspects of Japanese philosophy and aesthetics that could be usefully revived in response to the climate crisis, I wrote and produced three music-theatre works collectively titled the Vanitas series. The first, a monoopera called Matsumushi addressed Japanese conceptions of landscape through the Buddhist syncretic aesthetics of Zenchiku’s nō. The second, a wordless music-theatre ritual for shō (doubling u), viola, and ‘cello called fallings took as its focus the fugal nature of overlapping cyclical patterns of rising and falling (focussing, per the title, on the latter), with mappō as the central conceptual frame. The final part of the trilogy, Is nowhere free of bad tidings?, for shakuhachi, 2 kotos, biwa, and percussion, was a site-specific work for Ichijō Ekan Sansō garden in Kamakura structured around Kamo-no-Chōmei’s lament for the fallen age he was living through, Hōjōki. It included eschatological texts from both mediaeval Japan and mediaeval Latin sources, and was recognised as the winner of the 2018 Ichiyanagi Toshi Contemporary Prize, with Ichiyanagi saying that the work is ‘based on a deep consideration of the flux of Japanese history’ and that it ‘succeeds in theatrically expressing … the transient spirit of various times and societies, rendering a picture of the world darkly tinged by the harshness of reality’.

    In this paper I will delve into the aspects of Japanese mappō thought which inspired this series, showing how they can inform works (with narrative texts, collage texts, or no texts) which are explicitly about contemporary environmental degradation. The series title, Vanitas, refers back to a 16th-17th-century style of painting in the Netherlands (as well as to Salvatore Sciarrino’s 1983 opera of the same name), and there is an underlying theme of comparing the Christian and Japanese Buddhist eschatological artistic traditions through the pieces which I will also discuss. Through my explication of the Vanitas series and its mediaeval Japanese inspiration, I will show the practical contemporary uses of mediaeval Japanese Buddhist aesthetics for writers, interpreters, and audiences of music and theatre wishing to find alternative ways of addressing the climate crisis today.

    Event date: 2022.3

    Venue:University of Glasgow / Online   Country:United Kingdom  

    Konparu Zenchiku (1405-c.1470) was the son-in-law of Zeami Motokiyo. Zeami is the most famous nō actor-writer-composer-showman-impressario, but Zenchiku brought nō back from the shōgun’s court to the temples, effectively resacralising the art form for a troubled, violent age. This paper will ask whether Zenchiku’s approach to theatre has anything to teach us as contemporary directors and creators and audiences in our own unstable era.
    Focusing on the under-appreciated play Mekari – which dramatises a ritual cutting of seaweed at the strait between the islands of Kyūshū and Honshū as the new lunar year dawns – the paper will explore how Zenchiku’s work plays with – crosses back and forth over – multiple physical, temporal, and spiritual boundaries in both its text and performance, leaving the audience with a sense of ambiguity and questioning the received wisdom of conventional reality.
    The paper will conclude with a look at Kyoto School philosopher Ueda Shizuteru’s concept of the hollow expanse, a place of limitless possibility. The paper will argue that the audience viewing these ambiguities cultivated by Zenchiku’s sacred dramas – via the music, words, and staging together – might themselves be given a glimpse into the radically open place of the ‘hollow expanse’. For us in the late-capitalist world, Zenchiku’s theory and practice of sacralised music drama offers a model of a theatre which communicates with that which lies beyond the boundaries and limits of our conventional human way of thinking – a possibility of moving beyond the instrumental conception of the world that has wrought so much destruction throughout the Anthropocene.

    金春禅竹(1405-1470)は、世阿弥元清の娘婿である。世阿弥は能役者・作者・作曲家・興行師・興行師として最も有名であるが、善竹は能を宮廷から寺院に戻し、乱れた時代にあって能という芸術を効果的に再認識させることに成功した。本論文では、禅竹の演劇へのアプローチが、現代の不安定な時代に生きる私たち演出家、クリエイター、観客に何か示唆を与えるものであるかどうかを問う。
    旧暦の新年を迎え、九州と本州の間の海峡で行われる海苔切りの儀式を描いた、あまり評価されていない『和布刈』に焦点を当て、禅竹の作品がテキストとパフォーマンスの両方で、いかに物理的、時間的、精神的な複数の境界線と遊び、交差し、観客に曖昧さを残し、従来の常識に疑問を投げかけるかを探求してみる。
    本稿では、京都学派の哲学者である上田閑照の、無限の可能性を秘めた場所である「『虚』の世界」という概念を考察することで締めくくる。禅竹の聖劇が培ったこのような両義性を、音楽、言葉、演出が一体となって鑑賞する観客自身が、「『虚』の世界」という根本的に開かれた場所を垣間見ることができるかもしれない、というのが本稿の主張である。後期資本主義の世界に生きる私たちにとって、禅竹の聖なる音楽劇の理論と実践は、従来の人間の考え方の境界と限界を超えたところにあるものと交信する演劇のモデルを提供してくれる。

  • Zenchiku and the resacralisation of nō: Zenchiku’s Primal Water and the case of Mekari International conference

    Though it was Zeami Motokiyo who first brought the art of nō to a point of popular perfection in the early 15th-century Kyoto, it was his son-in-law Konparu Zenchiku who took Zeami’s theatre for city-dwellers and courtiers and returned it to the sacred spaces of temples and shrines in Nara. Under the influence of new religious ideas both domestic and Chinese, Zenchiku refashioned nō as a spiritual drama, adjusting its focus from pleasing audiences and the military elite to pleasing the gods and enacting religious truths.
    This paper will look at the religious-philosophical background of both Zenchiku’s time and our own to see how Zenchiku’s innovations came about and how they function today. Recent scholarship has well documented, through the analyses of both men’s nō texts and treatises, how Zenchiku’s methods developed out of Zeami’s. In this paper, I will focus on structural differences between Zenchiku and Zeami's works, analysing the plays as performed pieces of music theatre (as opposed to static texts). This will reveal how Zenchiku’s understanding – as developed in his Six Circles, One Dewdrop treatise – of the novel mixture of Shintō, Buddhist, and Confucian religious and philosophical ideas which were circulating and interacting in the 15th century actually influenced the structure of his plays. I will also look at the kinds of responses his nō plays afford, addressing the question of their relevance to contemporary audiences. With reference to aesthetics as conceived by the members of the Kyoto School (especially Nishitani and Ueda), I will argue that Zenchiku’s innovative structures afford being experienced (and were intended to be experienced) as aesthetic events which open up our consciousness to what Ueda calls the ‘hollow expanse’.

    Event date: 2021.3

    Venue:Ryoenkaku, Nanzenji and Kyoto University   Country:Japan  

    Religious ideas in early 15th-century Japan were a heady mix of Shintō, Buddhism, and Confucianism. Having inherited the mantel of his father-in-law Zeami’s Zen Buddhist-inflected but largely secularised nō, Zenchiku took the art in a new direction – or recovered an old direction –
    by focussing his nō on the spiritual yearnings of souls both human and non-human.
    In this paper I will examine the contemporaneous syncretic religious thinking – including the animism of Shintō and original enlightenment of Tentai Buddhism – which informed Zenchiku’s spiritual turn. I will emphasise the plays Bashō, Kakitsubata, and Tatsuta in which the principal characters (the shite) are the spirits of, respectively, a banana tree, an iris, and red autumn leaves. In particular, I will ask – via third generation Kyoto School philosopher Ueda Shizuteru’s concept of hollow words – whether Zenchiku’s nō constitute ritualistic places wherein the human (the audience via the supporting actor [ie, the waki]) can encounter the non-human in a spirit of equality.
    Taking a close examination of Tatsuta as a performed music theatre ritual – a living event rather than static, dead words on a page – as a case study, I will argue that Zenchiku’s nō manifests a ‘place’ which affords being experienced as transcendent of the artificial boundaries of human and non-human. This place, interpreted in the light of Nishida’s place of absolute nothingness and Ueda’s hollow expanse, can be seen as a place of reconnection and reconciliation for us late- capitalist audiences, allowing us to glimpse – even if only on stage – a possibility of moving beyond the instrumental conception of nature that has wrought so much environmental destruction throughout the Anthropocene. I will conclude by arguing that Zenchiku’s plant-focussed oeuvre enacts a locus of limitless possibility by drawing from diverse streams of what – even his time – was ancient wisdom.

    15世紀初頭の日本では、神道、仏教、儒教が混在する宗教的な考え方が主流であった。義父である世阿弥の禅宗の影響を受けながらも世俗化した能楽を受け継いだ善竹は、能楽を新たな方向へ、あるいは古い方向へ回復させた。
    禅竹は、人間や非人間的な魂が抱く精神的な渇望に能の焦点を合わせることで、芸術を新たな方向へ、あるいは古い方向へと回復させたのである。
    この論文では、禅竹の精神的転回に影響を与えた、神道のアニミズムと天台宗の独自の悟りを含む同時代の同時代的な宗教思想を検証してみたい。特に、『芭蕉』、『杜若』、『竜田』といった、木、花、紅葉の霊を主役とする戯曲に注目する。特に禅竹の能は、人間(脇役を介した観客)が非人間と対等な精神で出会うことができる儀礼的な場なのか、京都学派の三代目哲学者上田閑照の「『虚』化して言葉」の概念を介して問いかけたい。
    ページ上の静止した死んだ言葉ではなく、生きたイベントとして上演された音楽劇の儀式としての『龍田』を事例として、私は、善竹の能が、人間と非人間という人工的な境界を超越したものとして経験させる「場」を示していることを論じる。この場所は、西田の絶対無の場所や上田の「虚」の世界に照らして解釈すると、我々後期資本主義の観客にとって、再接続と和解の場所と見ることができ、人新世を通じて多くの環境破壊をもたらした自然の道具的概念を超える可能性を、たとえ舞台上だけでも垣間見ることができるのである。最後に、植物に焦点を当てた禅竹の作品は、彼の時代でさえも古代の知恵であった様々な流れを汲むことによって、無限の可能性の場所を演出していることを論じたい。

    カナダ文化はそれが「モザイク」であることを誇っている。そこは多様な移民文化がそれぞれのアイデンティティーを失わずに混ざり合う空間である。音楽に関していえば、カナダ人作曲家は、自身が育ったそれではない文化から様々なインスピレーションを受けてきた。例を挙げれば、バリのガムラン音楽に基づいた作品を西洋の作曲家の中では初めて作曲したコリン・マクフィー、カナダ先住民ニスガ族の歌をオペラの傑作「ルイ・リエル」に加えたハリー・サマーズ、感性の形成期に日本を含むアジアを旅して音楽的刺激を受けたカナダで最も知名度の高い作曲家クロード・ヴィヴィエ、そしてヨーロッパ大陸からカナダの先住民の音楽に至るまで幅広い素材を用いてコラージュ作品を作曲するフリストス・ハッツィス。
    近年では、こうした異文化の借用がマスメディアでもアカデミアにおいても「文化の盗用」であるとして問題化され、批判を加えられてきた。本発表は、「文化の盗用」というレンズを通してカナダの代表的な現代音楽作品を検証し、芸術表現における自由と自身が属さない文化に対するセンシティヴィティのバランスをどう図るか検討するものである。そして「文化の盗用論」の議論が日本のアーティストや聴衆に対して意味するところを慎重に考察する。

    Zeami Motokiyo was one of nō’s most important theorists and practitioners, and mugen (‘dreams and illusions’) nō one of his most sophisticated innovations. Using the play Tōru as a model case, in this paper I will explore how Zeami’s nō utilise waka theory and Buddhist ontology that was current in his time. I will especially examine his use of utamakura, the poetic device of intertextual allusion via place names. I will argue that utamakura is foundational to mugen nō, the main character (shite) being a spirit attached to a particular famous utamakura place. Tōru – set in a ruined Kyoto garden designed to mimic Shiogama, an utamakura location in Tōhoku – is a prime example of how Zeami’s structures his nō around utamakura.

    In the second part of the paper I will analyse Tōru’s text and music through the lens of Ueda Shizuteru’s theory of language. In placing poetic spirits of place on stage, Zeami shows the power of language to manifest something like conventional reality. Mugen nō takes place, I will argue, entirely inside the mind of the supporting priest character (waki) – the shite spirit manifests via poetic ‘hollow language’ (utamakura) in the waki’s mind. Furthermore, when watching mugen nō, the music and poetry combine to create a space wherein the entire audience become waki; we share the aesthetic-spiritual experience of the spirit of place manifesting in our communal mind. His ritualistic staging of the opening up of the hollow expanse is the beauty of Zeami’s art.

  • de tiempo y agua y olas y sonidos y lluvia

    Daryl Jamieson

    2024.3

     More details

    Programme Note
    de tiempo y agua y olas y sonidos y lluvia (2024) (in English, ‘of time and water and waves and noise and rain’) is the third of my works to take its title from Pablo Neruda’s Cien sonettos de amor (‘One hundred Love Sonnets’) (1959). The first, written in 2005 for twelve-instrument sinfonietta, was called con tu sueño en mi sueño (‘with your dream in my dream’) was from the fourth and final ‘Night’ section of Neruda’s collection, while the second, 2008’s solo piano work besos y volcanes (‘kisses and volcanos’), was from the opening ‘Morning’ section of the book. This work comes from the third section, ‘Evening’.
    The common source of their titles indicate both that these pieces share a kind of shared form (tripartite, more akin to a Shakespearean sonnet than Neruda’s) and more of a improvisatory – and sometimes chance-based – approach to the musical material than is typical of my compositions. This reflects their shared theme of love – though, in light of my current musical and research interests, I chose for the title a line which expands the love for a person to the whole universe of phenomena (jijimuge in Kegon Buddhist terms) in which we are all enmeshed.
    This piece is written for and dedicated to Satoko Inoue, as an acknowledgment of fifteen years of working together – a relationship which began with her 2009 premiére of besos y volcanes.
    This work was supported by JSPS KAKENHI Grant Number 23K00215.

  • Descants 2: and the trees

     More details

    Descants is a series of pieces for instruments in natural environments. ‘Natural’, in my meaning, includes human- made environments, eschewing any artificial distinction between humans and the rest of the environment. The composed music is intended to become a part of the natural soundscape, not foregrounded or separated from the natural sounds around it.
    Descants 2: and the trees sets a poem by English writer Paul Kingsnorth in 8 verses. The poem is, in my interpretation, welcoming the reclamation (re-wilding) of land devastated by agriculture and human so-called civilisation by nature.The signer, at first subdued among the human- scarred grasses, gradually becomes more animated as a wilder future, more in harmony with nature is contemplated. The final, wordless, verse is sung not for human ears but to the trees themselves.

    On utamakura
    The philosopher Ueda Shizuteru identifies three linguistic registers that we all employ. He calls them signal, symbolic, and hollow. The signal register is when there is a direct correspondence between the utterance and a thing as perceived in conventional reality. The symbolic is when the word or phrase suggests a constellation of associations and emotions in addition to (or instead of) pointing towards a concrete thing. The hollow is when the speech implies something which is beyond what is considered natural in conventional reality: religious language, absurdist humour, and poetry fall into this category.

    Utamakura, a category of poetic words derived from place names that have been used for more than a millennium by Japanese poets, can function on all three levels simultaneously: They indicate the named place (signal), evoke intertextual associations with previous poems (symbolic), and, because their web of associated meanings originated so long ago, inevitably the images they invoke of places which remain real in large part no longer match reality (hollow). The disconnect between image and reality, between intellectual comprehension and senses, is one way that these poems can disrupt our sense of what is real. This skeptical stance towards conventional reality – which in the Kamakura period was considered a Buddhist soteriological function of poetry – can in our modern age also be construed as a questioning of the consumption-driven necropolitics of late capitalism.


    On utamakura 7: Shiogama
    The final piece in the seven-part utamakura series (with the caveat that number six has not yet been completed), is based not around poetry, but a nō play Tōru by Zeami, one which features a much larger number of utamakura words than a typical play would. The complex web of associations begins with the title location, which refers both to a place in Miyagi (just south of the famously beautiful Matsushima) and a 9th-century Kyoto garden (Kawara-no-in) which was built by Minamoto no Tōru to mimic it. By using tens of utamakura in the play, Zeami’s text produces a kaleidoscopic vortex of associations, across the centuries, seasons, and locations that defy reality, creating a hollow, magical theatrical place which enchants, discombobulates, and, perhaps, reveals something about the the openness of reality beyond the conventional view.

    This piece follows the structure of Zeami’s play but evokes its mystical world with dance, live music, pre-recorded video and soundscape recordings (from both Kyoto and Shiogama), as well as incense and food. It is my hope that, through the different levels of expressive ambiguity afforded by dance, sound, video, scent, and taste, some semblance of the almost-shamanistic hollowness afforded by Zeami’s original can be sensed here, in a guise less rooted in linguistics and more in the pure experience of music theatre.

The composed music is intended to become a part of the natural soundscape, not foregrounded or separated from the natural sounds around it.
    Descants 5: questions for the sea is intended to be played at the shore of any body of water (not necessarily the sea). It consists of five cells of material ranging from completely notated to improvised text score. Movement from one cell to the other is mirrored by the player's (or players') change of direction.

  • 歌枕5:鎌倉山

    2019.9

     More details

    芸術活動
    「歌枕」は、8世紀に始まる和歌の伝統において、歌の中で詠われた地名を指す。聖地や大事件が起きた場所は、歌に詠み込まれることによって、長く人々の記憶に留められた。歌人が歌のうちに響かせたそれらの地名は、過去数百年もの間繰り返し用いられてきた。幾世代にも渡って、詩人や作曲家、能作者らがさまざまな作品に上らせてきたのである。地名(歌枕)の周辺には、こうして次第に間テクスト的な言及が堆く積み重なっていくことになったのである。
    この「歌枕シリーズ」において私は、国の内外を問わず、名高い物語の舞台へ赴き、まずフィールド・レコーディングを行った。続いてそれらの録音をもとに、私はいくつかの作品を書いた。これらの作品は、長い時間をかけてある場所と結び付けられるに至った連想や場、時間に対して、現在の我々が向ける想いを扱ったものである。場から連想される理想と、実際には期待はずれとも言える現実を前にした時に感ぜられる精神的な懸隔を扱ったもの、とも言い換えられよう。
    「鎌倉山」は現在の鎌倉山とは違い、伝統的には現在、鶴岡八幡宮がある場所をそう呼んでいたらしい。鎌倉山を歌枕とする和歌には、木を切ったり削ったりする音、草刈り、鳥の鳴き声や雲が現れる。「鎌」は勿論、動詞の「刈る」と関わるのであろう。鎌倉に6年間住んでいた私の見たところ、八幡宮は過度に商業主義的になったようで、聖域というより観光地と言った方が良さそうである。とはいえ、境内の中では神道の起源を思い起こさせる自然もある。本作品のオーディオ・ヴィジュアル・レコーディングは鎌倉山の伝統的なイメージと現実の間の緊張を経巡りながら、楽器はそれにコメントするように奏される。
    鎌倉山に集中しつつ、八幡宮より1.5キロほど東にある小さな神社、鎌足神社の映像を三つ、短く挿入した。鎌倉の創設神話に関わる「鎌」が埋められたと言われるこの神社は穏やかで、観光客はあまり来ず、自然豊かなところである。日本の精神的生活のに関して私は部外者のままだが、ここは鶴岡八幡宮より神道の伝統的な原理に近い神社だと感じている。
    何れにせよ本作は古今の「鎌倉山」に関連づけられた作品で、現在から現代人が想像する過去までを遍歴するという構成をとる。つまり、ぼやけて無目的的、鳥居の朱色に染まった現代の雑音から、明るく豊かな緑色のものとして想像される過去へ、期待される未来へと、大きく広がっていくのである。

    「歌枕4:セント・ダンストン・イン・ジ・イースト」は、ロンドンのシティ、セント・ダンストンズ・ヒ ルにある庭園を舞台とした作品である。ここは千年以上もの間聖地であった。現在の教会は12世紀前半に建てられたが、以後何度も修復の手が入っている。特筆すべきは1666年のロンドン大火後、イギリスを代表す る建築家のサー・クリストファー・レンが魅力的な塔を再建したことであろう。第二世界大戦中、ドイツ軍 による空爆で、全ての屋根と壁の殆どが破壊されたが、レンの塔は残った。現在、同教会の廃墟には見応え ある庭とベンチがあり、戦争の持つ破壊性と自然の回復力とを人々に想起させるものである。
    この作品は6楽章からなるが、各楽章に題名が付けられている。カトリックの歴史と、サウンド・アーティストFizz Margeresonがフィールド・レコーディングを行った時間を呼応させるべく、聖務日課という毎日 の祈りの名を使った。「テルチェ(三時課:午前半ばの祈り)」、「セックスト(六時課:正午の祈り」、そして「ノネ(九時課:午後半ばの祈り)」がそれである。さらに各楽章には、作曲時にセント・ダンスト ン・イン・ジ・イーストの庭園に実際植わっていた植物のうち、シェイクスピアが言及していた植物を選り、 彼の作品から該当箇所を引用、副章題として付した。

  • Music and the nonhuman: an approach to contemporary interpretation of sound i nformed by Japanese aesthetics

    2023.4 - 2026.3

      More details

    Authorship:Principal investigator 

    In an era of global environmental and civilisational chaos and seemingly imminent collapse, what role can the musical arts play? In Marianna Ritchey’s Composing Capital, Ritchey makes clear that mainstream contemporary music is as implicated in the destructive system of global capitalism as the rest of the culture industry, and it is thus clear that only radically experimental or heterodox approaches can – in the grand tradition of all arts – create places where social relationships among humans and between humans and the nonhuman can be reimagined. To this end, this research project will build on the work of contemporary experimental composers who are working outside the mainstream, and new musicologists (especially anti-capitalist queer and feminist musicologists) and theorists. But this project will equally listen back to conceptions of music and music theatre from pre-modern, pre- capitalist periods (with an emphasis on waka theory, Okina, and Zenchiku) as potential models for sounding art in the post-capitalist world, an art more attuned to and in dialogue with, the nonhuman world.

    This theme explores the connections between identity, culture, technology and natural environment in Scotland, Europe and archipelagic regions across the globe.

    The engrained cultural practices, philosophical ideas and psychological resources we derive from inhabiting a territory and passing on our experience and knowledge to future generations through arts, crafts and technology define our identity and relationship to other communities around the world. The archipelagic layout of the Scottish natural environment and its interactions across time with its continental neighbours and islandic nations across the globe, providing creative solutions to global challenges, can be looked at through a trans-disciplinary lens which combines the expertise of practitioners and researchers from the College of Arts (Modern Languages & Cultures, History of Art, Theatre, Humanities, Theology & Religious Studies), College of Social Sciences (Education) and College of Medicine, Veterinary & Life Sciences (Psychology & Neuroscience).

    The aim of the theme is to provide a congenial research environment that fosters collaboration across disciplinary boundaries and supports the personal development of Early Career Researchers and PhD students. As a natural extension of the activities organised through the Existential Philosophy and Literature Network (2017-2019) and the Glasgow-Kyushu Research Collaboration in the Arts (2019-2022), the theme seeks to energise links with external partners (such as GalGael Trust, Scottish Centre for Geopoetics, the Alliance française de Glasgow and the French Institute in Edinburgh), and to organise public events to disseminate ideas around nomadism and travel across cultures, inspired by the geopoetic movement initiated by the Glasgow-born Scottish-French writer, Kenneth White. This line of enquiry ties in with cross-disciplinary research on eco-criticism, the impact of technology and human/robot interactions during the pandemic, and the role of creative industries and performative art in tackling mental health and restoring our relationship to the natural environment.

    本演奏会のテーマは、「音楽と非人間」です。今回は、前近代的で非西洋的な存在論に根差した日本の哲学と美学を もとに、「人間の音」と「非人間」を音の関係から新たな視点でひもといていきます。
    「音楽と非人間」第 2 回は、晩冬になぞらえるのにふさわしい演奏会です。星の川、水面下と野原を行き交う精霊と 影をテーマにしています。前半は、河合拓始「イなりうた 2016」より「あたごはら異聞」は稲荷山の精霊を、高橋 悠治「水に走る影」は水面下の影の不可解な音を喚起します。エバ = マリア・ホーベンの「constellations ‒ consolations」( 星座・慰め ) は、ホーベンのより個人的な夜空の印象を通して、地上の精霊から星々へと導き、後半 のジョン・ケージによる「Winter Music」( 冬の音楽 ) と「Atlas Eclipticalis」( 星図 ) の同時演奏へと向かいます。

    ピアノ。白鍵 52、黒鍵 36 の計 88 を数え、広い音域と深い音楽性は多くの音楽家を惹きつけ続けています。「鍵盤三景」は、このピアノという楽器をベー スに、アコースティック、プリペアド、エレクトロニクスといった方法で最先端のキーボード音楽の歴史、現在、そして未来を俯瞰しようとするも のです。
    今回の一連の演奏会は、2022 年 2 月に行われた "Feldman meets freq" を前身としています。九州大学芸術工学部が誇る設備で、芸工内外の優れた 作曲家、演奏家の音楽をお楽しみください。鍵盤の向こう側が新たに見えれば、とても嬉しいです。
