Description: | Three recordings in which Posim and The Khin demonstrate flute playing. This consists of the following video file: SDM23-20091221-05_SM_PoSim_Flute.mpeg (This recording runs from 0 to 14’31” on the video cassette numbered ASSMVDP21DEC0901 - 1440) And the following sound files: SDM23-20091221-01_KH_M_PoSim_Flute.wav SDM23-20091221-02_KH_M_PoSim_Flute.wav The details of these recordings are as follows: SDM23-20091221-05_SM_PoSim_Flute.mpeg: (timing within the session and timing within the cassette are in parentheses) Flute playing. The flutes were not the best quality because they are not made of bamboo. 7'02"(7’29”) The Khin joins in and plays a duet with PoSim. The sound of the train arriving at Ledo – with almost continuous blowing of the horn – is like a third flute. SDM23-20091221-01_KH_M_PoSim_Flute.wav: Duration 4’50”:Po Sim playing the flute, with some talking by Khithung, Nyalik and others; overlaps with SDM23-20091221-05_SM_PoSim_Flute.mpg SDM23-20091221-02_KH_M_PoSim_Flute.wav: Duration 7’33”: Po Sim and The Khin playing the flute,; overlaps with SDM23-20091221-05_SM_PoSim_Flute.mpg (from approx. 7’29”) | |
This project contains linguistic, musicalogical, ethnographic and other cultural information about three communities in Upper Assam: Singpho, Tai and Tangsa. The recordings and analyses have been done by Stephen Morey, together with Palash Kumar Nath (Gauhati University), Juergen Schoepf (Phonogrammarchiv, Vienna), Meenaxi Barkataki Ruscheweyh (Goettingen Academy of Sciences), Chaichuen Khamdaengyodtai (Rajabhat University, Chiang Mai), Zeenat Tabassum (Gauhati University), Karabi Mazumder (Gauhati University), Krishna Boro (Gauhati University), Paul Hastie (LaTrobe University). The key aims of the project were • to provide a comprehensive documentation of the varieties of Tangsa language spoken in the Margherita Subdivision of Upper Assam, India, • to provide a comprehensive documentation of the traditional songs, and poetry of three endangered language communities in the Margherita Subdivision: the Tangsa and Singpho (both Tibeto-Burman) and the Tai (Tai-Kadai), including a study of Tai traditional manuscripts, which are highly relevant for language and culture maintenance among the Tai. Within each of these communities there is considerable linguistic and cultural diversity, so all the files have been divided up and named according to this system: Tai SDM01 Phake SDM02 Aiton SDM03 Khamyang SDM04 Ahom SDM05 Khamti Singpho SDM07 Turung SDM08 Numhpuk Hkawng SDM09 Diyun Hkawng SDM10 Tieng Hkawng Tangsa SDM11 Youngkuk SDM12 Cholim SDM13 Kimsing SDM14 Tikhak SDM15 Lochhang SDM16 Ngaimong SDM17 Maitai SDM18 Shechhyv SDM19 Mossang SDM20 Khvlak SDM21 Lakkai SDM22 Lungri SDM23 Hakhun SDM24 Lungkhe SDM25 Ronrang SDM26 Sangte SDM27 Sangwal SDM28 Halang SDM29 Haseng SDM30 Morang SDM31 Moklum | ||
