For over a century, drummers have been turning to a variety of
percussive traditions as prompts for the creation of new expressive
possibilities on the drumset. In this book, Simon Barker sets out
in detail the developmental processes he has followed creating an
improvisational language for the drumset utilizing Korean
rhythm/sticking cells, aesthetic conceptions, improvisatory codes,
and developmental procedures. Barker offers historical overviews of
Korean traditional rhythmic forms, analysis of rhythmic structures
appearing in a variety of styles, an analysis and chronological
account of his development of a 'Koreanized' approach to the
drumset, a methodology for performing p'ansori accompaniment on the
drumset, an introduction to Korean extended techniques, and a large
collection of drumset studies based on Korean traditional forms
such as tasA rA m, ch'ilch'ae, and ritual music structures from
Korea's East Coast. Barker also explores physical practices
employed by Korean musicians which aid in the development of a
relaxed, dynamic approach to performance. He creates a framework
for creating an alternative approach to drumset education and
performance through an engagement with Korea's extraordinary
rhythmic and aesthetic traditions. The volume includes accompanying
downloadable resources featuring recordings of developmental
exercises, solo drumset improvisations, and ensemble performances,
each track representing a subject of discussion within the volume.
