VIDEOS OF TRADITIONAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS (O-Z)

VIDEOS OF TRADITIONAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS (O-Z)

This is Part 3 of a three part series.

THE PURPOSE OF THIS SERIES
The purpose of this series is to showcase videos of and share information about traditional musical instruments.

In the context of this series, my definition of "traditional musical instruments" - with a few exceptions such as pan ("steel drums"), and vuvuzelas- are those instruments that were created prior to 20th century and which are largely unfamiliar to people in the general public (including me).

This series does not purport to include examples of all of "traditional musical instruments" worldwide.

My thanks to all of the artists featured on these videos. My thanks also to the uploaders of these videos.

In response to my questions about this instrument on this video's YouTube comment thread, Stema11 wrote the following responses:

"it is such a nice song done in the Kisii language of the gusii community from western kenya. the dance is called "entabanana" and it involves the obokano instrument he is carrying on the shouldiers." and "Another style to hold is by putting it on the ground besides your legs as one sits on egeteni(3 legged small stool)."

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obokano :
"The obokano (also spelled obukano) is a large bass bowl lyre from Kenya. It is used by the Gusii ethnic group."

OCARINA

Song of Time on Ocarina

docjazz4 | December 31, 2006

From Wikipedia: ADD LINK
"The ocarina ( /ɒkəˈriːnə/) is an ancient flute-like wind instrument. While variations exist, a typical ocarina is an oval-shaped enclosed space with four to twelve finger holes and a mouthpiece that projects from the body. It is often ceramic, but other materials, such as plastic, wood, glass, and metal may also be used.

The ocarina is a very old family of instruments, believed to date back some 12,000 years. Ocarina-type instruments have been of particular importance in Chinese and Mesoamerican cultures. The ancient Chinese Xun, made of clay, has a history of probably several thousand years. Different expeditions to Mesoamerica, including the one conducted by Cortés, resulted in the introduction of the ocarina to the courts of Europe. Both the Mayans and Aztecs had produced versions of the ocarina, but it was the Aztecs who brought the song and dance that accompanied the ocarina to Europe."

"The oud (Arabic: العود‎, al-'ūd) is a pear-shaped stringed instrument commonly used in Middle Eastern music. The modern oud and the European lute both descend from a common ancestor via diverging evolutionary paths. The oud is readily distinguished by its lack of frets and smaller neck."...

PECU

Mexem-Ifira rose.avi [New Caledonia]

Wacebew | December 06, 2008
no description available

-snip-

Another exact copy of this video identifies this vocalist (or the group) as "Edou". Here's some information regarding this group: [Edou is] "From the Drueulu Tribe, located in Lifou (Loyalties Islands), Edou is a well known artist in his native New Caledonia and the South Pacific." Click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Caledonia for information about New Caledonia, although there is no information posted there regarding that nation's culture.

The rhythm to this song sounds like Reggae to me, and the shirts that the men are wearing are dashikis, an African American modification of the dansiki, a traditional Yoruba (Nigeria, West Africa) men's attire. I posted a request in the viewer comment thread for information about the names of the vertical bamboo sticks and the percussion box with a stick. I also hear a shaking instrument but I'm not sure that it is shown in the video.

I posted a comment to this video's viewer comment thread asking for the name of the vertical bamboo sticks and the percussion box with stick. This response to my query was posted on that thread by LenyaGreen: "some of us call those bamboo sticks "rain sticks" but I couldn't give you a better name for it, sorry :)

And the percussion box is generally just called "percu" or "bamboo percu", I'll try to ask if there's an actual name to it but I'm not sure. Thanks for sharing our culture with the world :) "

end of quote.

I assume that "percu" is an abbreviation for "percussion".
I also posted another comment asking for more information about the group, the type of music, and the clothing worn by the musicians/vocalist.

LenyaGreen also posted this response:
"...the group "Mexem" (pronunced Meh-j-em with the "j" like the spanish letter "jota") is from a small island part of the archipelagoe of New Caledonia. The song is in the language from that particular island called "drehu" (pronunced dj-eh-oo) And the rhythm is a mix of traditional "kaneka" (name of the culture of NC's islanders) style and some others. And the clothes have been adopted in NC since the '70s I think."

..."The frottoir, also called a Zydeco rub-board, is a mid 20th century invention designed specifically for Zydeco music. It was designed in 1946 by Clifton "King of Zydeco" Chenier, and fashioned by Willie Landry, a friend and metalworker at the Texaco refinery in Port Arthur, Texas. Clifton's brother Cleveland Chenier famously played this newly designed rubboard using bottle openers. Likewise, Willie's son, Tee Don Landry, continues the traditional hand manufacturing of rubboards in his small shop in Sunset, LA."

TIMBALES

Tito Puente y Charlie Palmieri - Jam En El Barrio

SalseroPesoCompleto | July 01, 2008

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timbales
"Timbales (or pailas criollas) are shallow single-headed drums with metal casing, invented in Cuba. They are shallower in shape than single-headed tom-toms, and usually much higher tuned. The player (known as a timbalero) uses a variety of stick strokes, rim shots, and rolls on the skins to produce a wide range of percussive expression during solos and at transitional sections of music, and usually plays the shells of the drum or auxiliary percussion such as a cowbell or cymbal to keep time at other parts of the song."

UHADI and UMRHUBHE (South Africa)

Madosini Manqina - Queen of South Africa's Pondoland Music

Rouvanne | July 05, 2006
Madosini, from Langa township outside Cape Town South Africa, is a master story-teller, composer and musician.

Treating audiences to traditions passed down from generation to generation, Madosini was filmed here playing the Uhadi and Umrhubhe - Rhodes Memorial September 2005.

-snip-

"The Uhadi is the South African version of the Brazilian berimbau, a bow with a single tunable string and an open gourd resonator. In addition to the two fundamental pitches, several overtones from the gourd are available.

First you tune the wire to the pitch you desire. Then you strike the string with a small stick to make it sound. Pinch the string between the thumb and forefinger about 1/12 of the way from the end to shorten the length of the vibrating string and strike again, you will get the second tone. Now, place the opening of the gourd against you chest as you play, and experiment with tilting the gourd opening slowly away from you, and you will hear a "wah-wah" sound similar to the kalimba's "wah-wah". By this technique, you can actually get extra overtone notes." - http://shop.kalimbamagic.com/product.sc?productId=88

The Umrhubhe is a South Africa (Xhosa) musical bow.

VAKSIN [Haiti]

Rara

HaitianDiaspora | May 02, 2006
This is a form of music from Haiti called "rara." Some of the best rara bands are from Leogane. The music is mainly instrumental, consisting of drums, homemade horns, and "bambou."

-snip-

The bamboo horn shown in this video are called "vaksin". Here's an excerpt from an article about Haitian rara and Dominican gaga music:

..."As in Carnival, Rara musicians use the goatskin drums of Kongo/Petwo rites, the tchatcha, and scrapers to compose an ensemble pattern that rests on a kata foundation. Musicians also blow the vaksin, a set of bamboo trumpets of various size and pitch. The characteristic augmented fourth of the vaksin scale clashes with the tonality of the songs and lends Rara music a feeling of dissonant polytonality. This penchant for clashing dissonance comes through not only in music but also in brilliant, sequined, multicolored costumes, and in the juxtaposition of vulgarity, politics, and religiosity in song texts. The vaksin circulate melodic motifs in hocket style that recall some vocal styles of Central Africa. "

Whatever happens, the vuvuzela is so ingrained in South African history that life without it just wouldnt be the same. Some locals say the vuvuzela comes from the traditional Cape fishers bugle while others say it originates from from animal horns. Whatever the legend behind the vuvuzela, it is a key part of soccer on the African continent and the noise of choice to accompany Bafana Bafana on their road to 2010. ITS not music to all ears.

Here's a viewer's comment & the video uploader's response that provides more information about this instrument:

Klezfiddle1-"What an amazing instrument! It is virtually identical to the ancient Egyptian lute, as depicted on Theban banqueting scenes, from over 3000 years ago..."

UlfJagfors-"There is a direct link between the today existing West African lutes and the Ancient Egyptien lutes. Court bard Har-Moses lute (about 1500 B.C) which is on display in the Cairo Museum is in many ways very similar in construction. I have examine that lute on spot. There are a few differencies. The Egyptin lutes were mostly played with a wooden plectrum. They had no short thumb string as on nearly all Griot/Jali lutes. They also encompase frets made of a twisted rope around the neck."

"I recorded Elijah Gunydjurruwuy a year ago, here he is again almost 12 months later in 2008! Do a search for "Gunydjurruwuy" on YouTube and you'll find about a dozen clips from previous recording sessions.,,

Here he plays solo yirdaki, and then as accompaniment to singing and dancing with his 3 brothers. All 4 boys are from Lake Evella, otherwise known as Gapuwiyak.

Manikaymirr (singer man) is David Djinipirdi Marrkula, who is also a deadly yirdaki player... I'll upload vids of him playing yirdaki soonish. Emmanuel and another brother, Nathan I think, provide entertaining dancing! 'Twas a fun day, always is when hanging out with Elijah :-) "

**
Excerpt from http://www.didjeridu.com/wickedsticks/articles/guanlim2.htm : "In Australia, there are several categories of wooden pipe that are structurally and functionally distinguished from each other, though there are overlaps in certain categories.

To the north are the didjeridu and didjeridu-like forms. In the Central Australia region are much shorter, and functionally distinct, forms to the didjeridu.The yirdaki is merely a type of didjeridu, a form that is used by the Yolngu people of north-east Arnhem Land. The yirdaki is quite different to other types of didjeridu because of its particular acoustic properties, though this in itself shows variance according to regional preferences and prescribed law among Yolngu clan groups."...
