The purpose of this research is to study the Ugong hill tribes music and its structure. Suphanburi and Uthaithani provinces were the areas of study. This research used fieldwork to collect musical data from the Ugong hill tribe and analyze those primary sources. The results from analysis are: 1) the meaning of verse that implies the living of Ugong hill tribe. 2) the tuning system of Ugongs music that has a distance in one octave equalto 1,190.5 cents. When the distance between each pitch in the Ugong tuningsystem and in the western system were compared, it was found that these twosystems are almost the identical. 3) the structure of Ugongs music is clear structure, short melody, tempobetween slow to rather fast. Formal structure can be divided into section,phrase and melodic segment but some songs have melodic line too short to bedivided and still have phrase and melodic segment. The melodic line of eachsong goes continuously without repetition in any part. 4) there are three kinds of Ugong music. First, there is the simple melody.Second, the melodic line uses speaking in rhythm instead. Finally, themelodic line uses a combination of the first two kinds. 5) there are 2-3 main structural pitches in each song. The approach of the mainstructural pitches has two forms, approach-final and approach-center-final.In the approach of the main structural pitch, it usually happens by theother main structural pitch, which approaches the home tone. |
