    Matai Samoa (1989)
    London, UK :Royal Anthropological Institute,
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (67 min.).
    Edition: Electronic reproduction. Alexandria, VA : Alexander Street Press, 2012. (Ethnographic video online). Available via World Wide Web.
    Series Statement: Ethnographic video online, volume 2
    Keywords: Ethnology ; Samoa Social life and customs. ; France ; Nonfiction films.
    Abstract: This film is a valuable treatment of archival footage that George Milner shot while conducting field research in 1955 and 1959. The footage (eighteen minutes of the total film) focuses on traditional Samoan activities, such as fishing, cooking, house-building, hand-weaving, and bark-cloth making in preparation for the formal installation (saofa'i) of a Samoan matai (a male titleholder responsible for the welfare, prosperity and good behaviour of his extended family). This is one of the most important Samoan rites of passage. The ceremonies which validate his assumption of a new status are shown, both within the extended family and at the level of the village, whose existing titleholders formally acknowledge the new matai's right to a seat in council. Their approval is marked by the acceptance of gifts of goods and valuables, especially fine mats, which are of great importance. The musical sound track is of traditional songs recorded during the same period. Christina Toren, a South Pacific specialist, then interviews Reverend Lalomilo Kamu, a Samoan scholar currently at the University of Birmingham, about the previous footage and Samoan customs. In particular they discuss the formal preparation of a bowl of kava; the role of the taupou (ceremonial village virgin); the making of sinnet, the braided cord made from the fibres of coconut husk; the role of Samoan houses; cooking; the informal schooling of the young; the preparation of bark-cloth; and the process of hand-weaving. The interview provides a rare opportunity for viewers to hear a scholar from a filmed group comment on and explain the symbolism behind the pictures captured by the camera. The interview is quite detailed and is particularly useful for specialists in Polynesia or other regions of the South Pacific.

    The song of harmonics (1990)
    Watertown, MA :Documentary Educational Resources (DER),
    Details
    Language: Multiple languages
    Pages: 1 online resource (40 min.). , 003930
    Edition: Electronic reproduction. Alexandria, VA : Alexander Street Press, 2014. (Ethnographic video online, volume 2). Available via World Wide Web.
    Series Statement: Ethnographic video online, volume 2
    Keywords: Ethnomusicology. ; Sound recordings in ethnomusicology. ; France ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: In the practice of overtone singing (called also bi-phonic singing), whose best known examples can be found in Mongolia and with the Tuva people of Southern Siberia, a single person sings what the audience perceives as two voices at the same time a low pitch with his vocal cords, and in addition, a high-pitched melody using harmonics (overtones) selected by modifying the volume of the mouth cavity. This documentary is not an ethnography filmed in location. It is partly an illustration of the results of former research, partly the very actual investigation on overtone singing carried out in Paris, in the Ethnomusicology Department of the Musée de l'Homme, during a workshop, during a concert of the Mongolian National Ensemble, and in the medical visualization department of a hospital. The central figure is Tran Quang Hai, a well-known musician specialized in Vietnamese music, a performer and researcher in overtone singing, who is there working with the filmmaker in the same research group. The initial idea was to explore new technologies allowing the visualization of music structure and performance. The film shows for the first time in real time and with synchronous sound how biphonic singing operates from the physiological as well as the acoustical point of view. While shooting the x-ray pictures of tongue movements and the spectral views of overtones, the filmmaker and his collaborators discovered for the first time — like the viewer of the film — how this unique vocal technique operates.

    Abstract: In our grandparents' time, most women and men committed themselves to each other for better or worse. Today, many men and women struggle to redefine relationships in a society where more women are in the workforce, where divorce is common, and where the marriage commitment is rapidly changing. How did this happen? What opportunities and barriers has it created in women's and men's lives? Love Stories: Women, Men, & Romance provides both a history of changing attitudes and expectations and a portrait of today's conflicted society — in which the old and new values clash, fueling debates over the lifestyle, sex roles, and birth control.

    Abstract: Innovative graphic animations with sync sound visualize the features of both musical structure and performance technique related not only to traditional local voice characteristics but also to the polished yodelling of a renowned soloist performing at yodel festivals. The film also shows the connections with instrumental music, such as the small alphorn and the diatonic accordion. This documentary is a very rare example of elements of musical structure and performance being explained through visual means (another example is the filmmaker's The Song of Harmonics).

The film tells us in measured style about sheep farmer's Ian Gleadell's struggle with the rough landscape, the island's administration and loneliness.

We can see on the one hand peasant activities such as mowing, transporting wooden logs, milking and calling cattle, as well as people sitting together at home or in the local inn and on the other hand, a folk festival featuring wrestling and alphorn playing and the yearly concert of the local yodel choir. Singers of both styles discuss the differences between their practices.

    Abstract: Walking up to the summer alpine pastures is a yearly event that both people and cattle look forward to! Cattle calls, yootzing in the stable while milking, calling an alpine blessing through a milk funnel, yootzing together in the evening in the alpine chalet these are elements that many local people like to see, elements that reflect the idealized past of this people of herdsmen, as Swiss people like to call themselves. At the end of the film, an unexpected message reveals that real life was not as idyllic as it seems. It is a rare case of a film revealing its making of (years before the extras in DVDs became popular).

    Abstract: Four manners of yodelling and yootzing take place on the same day. The Yodel Mass, written in Swiss German dialect by the composer Jost Marty, is conducted by the director of the yodel choir in the church organ loft. Following that is a traditional local yootz arranged for the yodel choir — also performed in the church as a Bach choral would be — which, in a way, makes the profane become sacred. At dinner in a restaurant, a locally well-known traditional yootzer family performs for the wedding party. In the evening some villagers can be found in another inn performing not for an audience this time, but for their own pleasure. The wedding party also appreciates local customs such as large cowbell ringing, whip cracking and diatonic accordion playing to accompany dancing.

    Keywords: Ethnomusicology. ; Islamic music. ; Music Instruction and study. ; Muslims ; Bradford (West Yorkshire, England) Ethnic relations. ; France ; Nonfiction films.
    Abstract: Bradford is a mill town in the north of England with a population of some 350,000 people of whom about 60,000 are Asians, predominantly Muslim Asians. Lessons from Gulam is a detailed study of musical enculturation and education within this Muslim community. Gulam Musa comes from Gujarat (India), and is a member of the Khalita group whose traditional caste occupations include those of barber and musician. In Bradford he is a music teacher and singer of qawwali, a form of Muslim devotional music found in India and Pakistan and also a genre of media-disseminated popular music. He runs an amateur qawwali group (called Saz aur Awaz, `Music and Song'), usually training his accompanists, and also takes part in Asian music workshops in the schools of Bradford. Lessons from Gulam explains several aspects of Asian music, especially drumming, and contrasts musical education in the school with what goes on in people's homes. It has long shots of musical performance, filmed and edited in the observational style, presented as the narrative of a visit to Bradford, and shows the film-maker getting his own lessons from Gulam. The film-maker is an ethnomusicologist and his musical knowledge is revealed in the detail and attention paid to the specifics of this Indian music style. Such insight is rare in ethnographic films and makes this film particularly valuable for music teachers and for teachers at both the school and university level who wish to expose students to the multi-cultural elements of music in Britain today. John Baily made this film at the National Film and Television School during his training as an ethnographic film-maker under the scheme organised by the Royal Anthropological Institute and the National Film and Television School and funded by the Leverhulme Trust.

    Abstract: Bronislaw Kaspar Malinowski was born into an aristocratic family in Poland in 1984. It was the chance reading of Frazer's Golden Bough that put him on the path of his future career. He pursuit anthropological training at London School of Economics and was awarded a doctorate for work on Australian Aborigines, based on data provided by Spencer and Gillen. Following a first field study among the Mailu off the New Guinea cost, using the well-tested formula of his predecessors, Spencer and Rivers, he moved 1915 to the Trobriands. There he abandoned the veranda and developed his style of fieldwork, which came to be called participant-observation: speaking the language, living in the community and becoming part of it, making a detailed record of all aspects of native life. Malinowski's intimate experience with Trobriand society generated a growing awareness of the myriad of links that hold society together.
