MEETING OF WORLDS: Traditional Instruments and Their Role in Contemporary Composition

Original language description

Traditional instruments of non-European (and also European) cultures play an irreplaceable role in this creative leaven. What about them attracts contemporary artists? What do these authors strive for and what creative goals do they achieve by using these instruments? Should non-western regional instruments enter the European context – be the colorful extension of the European musical tradition? And should European regional instruments enter the soundscapes of other cultures – become homogeneous with them? Should these musical worlds coexist, or create a whole new world altogether? How, if at all, does the musical-cultural context of regional instruments influence a composer’s way of thinking? Can regional instruments be used without taking musical-cultural context into account? At present time that many now call alter – or metamodern, it seems that the above mentioned phenomena are not only possible, but, in fact, are increasingly happening. What are their pitfalls, advantages, disadvantages, and practical consequences? Are these phenomena the result of acculturation, changes in the approach to music as such, or even the shifts of paradigm? These and many other issues are to be the impetus for sharing at the Symposium at the International Shakuhachi Festival Prague 2021.
