수제천(Su je cheon) Korean court music

최초는 백제 때의 작품이지만, 전강(前腔)·후강(後腔)·과편(過篇)과 같은 형식 및 고려 때 발생한 무고(舞鼓)춤에 쓰였던 점으로 미루어 고려 때 편곡된것으로 보인다.

악기 편성은 당초 삼현육각(三絃六角)인 향피리 2, 젓대 1, 해금 1, 장구 1, 좌고 1 등 6인 편성이었으나 지금은 장소나 때에 따라 아쟁·소금이 첨가되는 등 악기 수에 제한을 받지 않는다. 왕세자의 거동 때 등에 쓰였기 때문에 일정한 박자가 아닌 자유로운 리듬으로 진행되는 불규칙장단이며 그 한배(빠르기)가 대단히 완만하나 장중하기 이를 데 없는 아악곡의 백미편(白眉篇)이라 할 수 있다.

@ayanuhito it surorises me to read such thoughtful and true sentences from a japanese, considering the younger and older history between Joseon and Nippon...

i really appreaciate your words as a korean.

i guess you might be one of those few who are honest enough to admit the truth.

thank you.

@inikristine It is not used in Seokjeondaeje(do you refer to"釋殿大祭"？),but it is the music played (and danced to) during the fifth and last offering of wines in a banquet specially held for Sejong 600 years ago.

This sounds like it should Korean.... I hear nothing of Chinese origin

[inikristine]

any body know if this is the music they use for Seokjeondaeje?

@wallish I don't really hear the similarity, but I like them both.

@icylakepaxphile well no one can fully understand any culture other than their own, but you can give it a fair whack! Mind you, I don't even always fully understand my own culture.

@wallish ahahahaha I misread it :P

[wallish]

Compare this to Gaelic Psalm singing. Music from totally different parts of the world yet so much connection. Good Gaelic Psalm singing recordings are on youtube as well

@Orlymusicboy Hikikomori is right. Japanese court music is related to Chinese court music VIA Korean court music. The instruments were brought from China to Korean, and then later from Korea to Japan or at times directly from China to Japan.
