Extract

Reports on the state of ethnomusicological research on Korean music have appeared since the 1980s. Both Bang Song Song's article titled “Korean Musicology: Its Historical Development and Problems” and the present author's article, “Perspectives on the Problems of the Ethnomusicological Research of Korean Music,” were published in the same issue of Korea Journal (1980). More recently, in his section on Korea in Ethnomusicology: Historical and Regional Studies (1993), Robert Provine provided an up-to-date status report on research in Korean music.
