南方丝绸之路之“华南”音乐文化调查与研究
（2019年9月20日-2019年12月）
“亚欧音乐研究中心”(简称“亚欧中心”)是上海音乐学院基于院内、国内以及国际学术机构协同合作而建立的新型学术平台。该平台围绕亚欧区域音乐文化研究，探索文物史料、传统音乐资源的再诠释及其可持续性与应用。围绕音乐生态与文明流动，比较与审视亚欧多元文化的历史与当下，通过跨学科的交叉合作，探索新的学术生长点。促进国内外学术深度交流，推动跨学科交叉合作，包括数字人文环境下文化多样性实践及音乐知识的公共化，为音乐教育塑造平等、宽容、自强人格及激发艺术创造力提供学术支撑。
“亚欧中心”邀访学者计划旨在促进学术深度交流，籍上海音乐学院在音乐学领域研究的历史底蕴、学科建设的成果，以及国内国际相关领域建立的合作伙伴优势，集聚骨干学者，通过跨学科的交叉合作，探索新的学术生长点。本计划将面对全球开放申请，拟在学校春季或秋季学期中实施，驻留时间为3-4个月。“亚欧中心”将为邀访学者提供学术支持、考察经费和生活服务，以及与上海音乐学院、江南地区音乐院校、其他相关综合大学的师生及学者交流互动的机会，充分感受学术共同体的问学传统与精神。开拓思路、潜心写作。
2019年“亚欧中心”将启动第2期“邀访学者计划”，该计划将聚焦广义的华南地区展开。
首先，华南在海外交通史上具有重要地位，这是构成其学术地位的关键地理因素。海上丝绸之路带来了物资、人员、技术、以及音乐的交流。外向型的贸易方式在与本土社会的激荡中，又融合出了区域文化的差异性与丰富性。在人类学界，华南的社会文化研究在过去近一百年中已积累了众多突出成果，也成为理解中国文明史的重要区域之一。当我们把目光聚焦在音乐这一文明载体时，发现华南音乐的生态多样性恰恰根源于其地方性。
音乐生态研究中的“生态”，意指考察音乐与其周边之关系总体。华南的社会史研究传统曾在中央与地方、国家与社会的互动视角下，对华南的土地制度，宗族关系和民间信仰等展开深入的探讨。而龙彼得、田仲一成等学者业已在华南的音乐戏剧研究中积累了丰富的学术遗产。在音乐学界，20世纪以来老一辈的音乐学家为这一区域的音乐文化收集、整理与研究立下了丰功伟绩；近期又有各高校与研究机构对江南、东南沿海以及岭南音乐做出了新近的探索。本次调研活动试图在制度、政治研究框架之外，既对微观的音乐生态结构进行深描，又在较宽的研究尺度下，对华南不同区域、流域的音乐生态境况进行比较和分析，以期回应音乐在华南区域研究，中国文明研究中的重要地位。
我们选取自上海-福建-广东-港澳等多地进行调研，在大小“传统”中理解蕴含在小地方中的大历史。考察内容包括：
1. 广义的乐种形成与流布
2. 音乐与器物（包括乐器）
3. 音乐形态及表演
4. 音乐与族群
5. 音乐与经济生活
6. 音乐与礼俗及民间信仰
我们的考察并不拘泥于研究视角，而关注音乐与地方性的关联。希望在较为密集的调研考察中，贴近和了解此地的总体社会事实，进而理解中国的传统之“樂”作为文明载体的重要功能和意义。
“亚欧中心”邀访学者的学科领域包括音乐学学科、与音乐学有交叉的人文社会科学、自然科学学科。邀访学者的申请资格为获得博士学位并入职于高校或研究机构，以及在高校或研究机构获得副教授以上职称者。本期计划名额为4-6名。
申请流程如下：
1.自即日起，“亚欧中心”正式开放2019年秋季学期邀访学者网上申请，截止时间为2019年8月12日。
2.申请人可以通过“亚欧中心”官方邮箱AEMRC@shcmusic.edu.cn 进行申报(含个人简历、已有成果、本次研究计划)。
3.“亚欧中心”学术委员会将于2019年8月中旬审核通过申请人的申请。
4.“亚欧中心”将于8月20日将审核结果知会申请人。

Investigation and Research into the Music Cultures in Southern China along the South Silk Road
(20th, September 2019 — December 2019)
The Asia-Europe Music Research Center (AEMRC) at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music is a new academic platform established by the conservatory on the basis of synergetic cooperation between academic institutes at home and internationally. The platform focuses on the study of musical cultures in the geographical arenas connecting Asia with Europe, specifically looking at the flows of musical ecologies and civilizations. It examines and compares the histories and current developments of multicultural practices between Asia and Europe, and explores the reinterpretation of traditional music resources in applied and sustainable contexts. The Centre seeks to promote in-depth academic exchange at home and abroad, with emphasis on interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary collaborations, including the promotion of cultural diversity in the digital humanities andthepublicityofmusical knowledge. It aims at providing a supportive research and teaching environment with a commitment to the larger interests of equality, tolerance, capacity building and the stimulation of artistic creativity, and the exploration of innovative approaches towards redefining fields of cultural study.
The “Visiting Fellow Program” in the AEMRC aims at the promotion of in-depth academic exchange based on the historical accumulation of the outcomes in its disciplinary construction in Shanghai Conservatory of Music as well as its advantages in the collaborative fellowship built with related fields in China and beyond, to explore newly emerging academic foci with interdisciplinary collaborations. This project will open its application to the whole globe which will be carried out extensively in the spring or autumn semester of the conservatory, each session lasting 3—4 months. The AEMRC will provide academic support,researchgrant, anddomesticservice, as well as opportunities to exchange and interact with the faculty members, students, or scholars from Shanghai Conservatory of Music and other music colleges and universities, in order to fully experience the scholarly tradition and spirit in an academic unity, to broaden one’s mind, and to concentrateonwritings.
In 2019, AEMRC will launch its 2nd session of the “Visiting Fellow Program” focusing on the broad area of Southern China.
Firstly, Southern China holds an important position in the history ofoverseatransportation, which is the key geographical factor contributing to its academic significance. The Maritime Silk Road brings exchanges of material, technological, human, and musical resources, with regionalculturaldifferenceanddiversity fusing in the surge of export-oriented trades versus local society. In the field of anthropology, numerous remarkable outcomes of the Southern China cultural studies have accumulated in the past century, which make it a crucial region to understand the history of civilization in China. As we focus on music as a carrier of civilization, it is the locality of Southern China that contributes to the diversity of musical ecology there.
In the research of musical ecology, the “ecology” denotes the totality of music with its surrounding relationship. Traditional studies on the social history of Southern China have intensively discussed the institutions of land, relationship of clans, and popular beliefs from the interactive perspectives between centrality and locality, between state and society, with an abundance of academic legacy of studies on music and theatre in Southern China left by scholarsincludingPiervanderLoonand Issei Tanaka. Since the 20th century, musicologists of the elder generation have established great achievements in the collection, systematization, and research of the music culture in this region; recently, several colleges and research institutes are making new explorations of musics in Jiangnan (South of the Yangtze River), Southeast Coast, and Lingnan (South of the five ridges) regions. This investigation activity tries to combinethickdescriptionofmicroscopic musical ecology structures withcomparisonandanalysisof musical ecology conditions in different areas and watersheds of Southern China in a broader scale beyond the institutional and political research frameworks in order to adapt to the important role of music in the regional studies of Southern China as well as in the civilization studies in China.
Investigations will be conducted in several sites ranging along Shanghai — Fujian — Guangdong — Hong Kong and Macau to understand the grand history contained in small places through wider or narrower “traditions”. Topics include:
1.The formation and dissemination of music genres in the broad sense;
2.Music and artifacts(including musical instruments) ;
3.Morphology and performance of music;
4.Music and ethnic groups;
5.Music and economic life;
6.Music and ritual customs and popular beliefs.
Our investigations are not limited to a research perspective, but focusing on the connections between music and locality instead, in the hope of approximating to the knowledge of the overall social fact in this region through a relatively intensive survey, in order to understand the function and significance of “Yue” (樂) traditions in China as civilization carriers.
The “Visiting Fellow Program” in the AEMRC will cover scholars from musicology disciplines as well as other humanities and sciences overlapping with musicology who have obtained doctor degree and work for colleges or research institutes, orhaveobtainedprofessorshipin such institutes. The number of visiting fellows is 4-6.
Application procedures:
1.The online application for the autumn semester of the “Visiting Fellow Program” in the AEMRC is open now until August 12th, 2019;
2.Applicants may provide personal résumé, existing outcomes, and a plan for new research via the official email AEMRC@shcmusic.edu.cn;
3.The academic committee of the AEMRC will examine the applications in the middle of August 2019andmakedecisionof approval;
