Abstract

<p>The concept of “sound culture” contains two creative perspectives that should contribute to the development of ethnographic studies .According to J. Kawada，the advocate of this concept, the first of the two is to get rid of the inadequacy with which the concept “music” has hitherto imposed upon the vast and fertile areas of sound communication in human life. It further tries to clarify the mechanism of sound communication itself in its totality.The second perspective is embodied by the use of the term “culture” instead of “communication” when we study a sound-made phenomenon,because the phenomenon sustained by sound, both that of human voices and of instruments, does not stand alone as an independent autonomous system. It is deeply embedded in the social and political context. For this reason, we must consider it as a cultural matter rather than a communication system.</p> (View PDF for the rest of the abstract.)
