Features of studying the traditional musical writing of East Asia in the university course “History of Notation”
Abstract
The study of the musical traditions of East Asia since the beginning of the 80s of the last century has been included in the list of leading areas of scientific activity of the Department of Music Theory of the Far Eastern State Institute of Arts (Vladivostok). The accumulated knowledge and experience became the basis for many years of study of the musical writing of the countries of the Far East in the wide context of written hieroglyphic culture using a neurosemiotic approach. One of the results of the study was the development of the course “History of Notation”, in which a significant place is occupied by the study of traditional Eastern musical notography. The introduction of this material into the university course contributes to the understanding of the high artistic value of the musical culture of East Asia and the formation of ideas among students about traditional musical writing as the most important tool for preserving and relaying traditional cultural heritage.
