The objective of this study was to comparatively examine the Jinyang melody of Han Beom-su School's Haegeum Sanjo, based on his theory of Sanjo. For this, this study compared between the 『Haegeum Sanjo』 compiled by Gang Deok-won and Yang Gyeong-suk and the written music score of Han Beom-su’s live performance of Haegeum Sanjo at the KBS broadcasting company, thus verifying the same/similar/different melodies between them.
Originally, Sanjo was handed down by oral transmission and personal education, but today, music score-oriented education is conducted.
Currently, the melody in the music-score collection or book of Han Beom-su School’s Haegeum Sanjo compiled for Haegeum education has been generalized from a single and same set of melody, and this set of melody is commonly performed today. However, it is confirmed that the melody shown in Han Beom-su's live sound sources has a different structure each time.
Therefore, this study compared the melodic relationship between 『Haegeum Sanjo』 compiled by Gang Deok-won and Yang Gyeong-suk, which is used in the circles of education, and the written music score of KBS sound source, which shows the longest composition among Han Beom-su's live performances, focusing on the same/similar/different melodies between them.
At the time of comparing the same/similar/different melodies, this study divided them into U-jo, Pyeong-jo and Gyemyeon-jo, and then compared the jangdans of each jo that corresponding to the same and similar melody within each jo. At this time, the same melody had to have a completely consistent melody progression of 5 or more out of 6 Jinyang baks, or a similar direction of progression of 4 or more baks to the structural sound. On the other hand, the similar melody was set to be similar in the melodic progression of 3 or more out of 6 baks to the structural sound.
When comparing the different melody, the jangdan was compared in the order of performance, but the number of jangdans was not matched, so for convenience of comparison, the melody of 『Haegeum Sanjo』 was divided into 4 jangdans and then analyzed. The melody of the KBS sound source was irregularly composed of paragraphs, so the jangdan to be contrasted was set in consideration of the flow of music.
Study findings are as follows:
The U-jo of two Sanjos was the same in the number of jangdans and in the development of 8 melodies.
The number of jangdan compositions changed in Pyeong-jo, but there were not many jangdans in both Sanjos and the number of jangdans between the two Sanjos also did not differ much. In Pyeong-jo, the same, similar and different melodies all appeared, but the same melody appeared more, and all the Pyeong-jo jangdans of 『Haegeum Sanjo』 showed the same or similar to the melody of KBS sound source.
Gyemyeon-jo accounts for about 66% of 『Haegeum Sanjo』 and about 68% of KBS sound source, which accounts for more weight than the combination of U-jo and Pyeong-jo. As for the same/similar/different melody in Jinyang Gyemyeon-jo of both Sanjos. the same and similar melodies were mainly found in places with completely different performance orders, and the proportion of different melodies was higher.
The reason why the same Han Beom-su School’s Haegeum Sanjo differs is that their theory and perspective of Han Beom-su’s Haegeum Sanjo are different.
Therefore, the author hopes that this study will be used as data for researching and playing Han Beom-su School’s Haegeum Sanjo in the future, and will be an indicator to help understand Sanjo and Han Beom-su School’s Haegeum Sanjo.
