And so we are in Sweden again.
It feels very strange to be back. It's too cold and there're too many things other than Vietnamese music that demands my attention. Tomorrow we have a concert. SIDA and the two schools (National Academy of Music, Hanoi, and Academy of Music, Malmö) will have a meeting in Malmö, and we will give a performance. We are also going to talk a little about our views on the project. What we have been through. Maybe something will surface that contributes to the paper...
...the paper now need structure, a plan for the writing process... I need to call Esbjörn.
Ethnomusicology and music education
Welcome
On this blog I write about my research in Vietnamese music. It's not updated very regularly, mostly while I am doing field work in Vietnam, but may have some interesting information for other people interested in Vietnamese music nevertheless.
This blog started out as a way of documenting the final paper of my and my friend Olof Göthlin's teacher's degree from the Malmö Academy of Music in 2008. In 2009 me and another member of our Vietnamese ensemble (www.myspace.com/ojzaioj), Pia Qvarnström, stayed in Hanoi for three months, from 6/1 to 5/4 - 2009, and used the blog once again to write about our experiences of learning Vietnamese Chèo, Tuồng and Ca trù music. Pia also taught eurythmics to teachers at the Vietnamese National Academy of Music in Hanoi, her experiences of Hanoi and teaching can be read about on her blogs (http://vietrytmik.blogspot.com and http://vietpia.blogspot.com). Since 2010 I write the blog myself.
