In 2003, the Korean singing tradition of p'ansori joined the
Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of
Humanity, a distinctive honor bestowed by the United Nations
Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization. P'ansori is a
music genre-an oral tradition comprising arias and narratives.
Often the individual singer acts out the story of young and old,
good and bad, and male and female. In Korean P'ansori Singing
Tradition: Development, Authenticity, and Performance History,
Yeonok Jang studies the periodical developments and changes in the
performance context, vocal developments, singing style, audience
involvement, contemporary performance, cinematic history, and
private and government sponsorship of p'ansori. Covering the period
from the early development of p'ansori, including the origins and
early formation of the genre, to contemporary performance, Jang
surveys this remarkable genre of storytelling, song, theater, and
performance. Throughout, she considers not only issues of
historical context but also questions of cultural identity, past
and present. Researchers in the fields of Korean studies, folk
music, oral history, ethnic music, narrative and theatrical music,
and cultural studies will find this work of significant value.
