Haruna FURUKAWA
Grants
To investigate the transmission of Khmer traditional music and embodied knowledge through participatory observation, including performance-based learning. Centering on the bamboo flute, Furukawa will work closely with and interview local musicians and instrument makers, seeking to internalize their tacit knowledge and embodied techniques through her own playing. She will also record performances and experiment with session-based music-making to document musical practices tied to annual rituals and life-cycle ceremonies, as well as narratives of musical experience rooted in personal and collective memory. Furukawa aims to contribute to sustained international networks, promote understanding and research of traditional music, deepen her own performance practice, and establish a foundation for future collaborative research and cross-cultural artistic initiatives.
