About this exposition

Name: Jeong Guk Lee Main Subject: Recorder Research Coaches: Inês de Avena Braga, Ji Youn Kang Title of Research: Korean contemporary music for the recorder: The influence of Korean culture and traditional music on Korean contemporary music for the recorder Research Question: In Korean contemporary music for the recorder which is influenced by Korean traditional subjects, what kinds of Korean traditional elements were used and how did the composers apply the ideas to their compositions using Western music techniques? Furthermore, how is the recorder applied to express Korean traditional subjects? Summary of Results: In this research, I focused on three different Korean contemporary works for the recorder, Chinese Pictures by Isang Yun, Open your words by Ji Youn Kang and Sibzhangseng by Yoon Bok Suk, each of these compositions being influenced by different kinds of Korean traditions. I have looked up what kind of sources and ideas were used and which materials influenced the music. Through direct contact with the composers of Open your words and Sibzhangseng, I could get more concrete ideas regarding the compositions and, based on this information, I analyzed how they applied their compositional ideas (which were influenced by Korean traditional music and culture) to their own music, as well as how the recorder was adapted in the music. The composers’ take on these cultures on the music, how they applied the recorder in each of their pieces is one of the most crucial points in my research. I figured out how suitable the recorder can be in the aspects of its flexibility, sound and extended techniques to be used to express Korean traditional subjects and create unique effects. In my PowerPoint presentation I will describe what kind of Korean traditional sources and ideas were used and influenced the music and how the composers applied those composition ideas with recorder in the music. I will also show the extended techniques that can be used on the recorder for many other pieces to create other kind of effects if we explore them in other combinations.
