This study aims to acquire the fullscore of rhythms in Kaenggari play and to characterize its structural traits, which is planned with a special schedule for me to research into the Ho-Nam Farmers' Music.
Special point of studying method consists in a try to make comparative study in terms of describing in parallel the 3 parts of Bupo-play, Kaenggari-play, and foot-play. Through this parallel study, it is expected that the rhythmical structure of Korean Farmers' percussion music is more perfect discovered than before.
Processes to study consist of 1) total description of the whole structure in Kaenggari and 2) observation of partial structure in detail.
Some resultants are as follows :
1. The total structure consists of 3 acts and 17sections which is characterized by the things that it is composed of wit stories speaking and music: it is kind of opera for 6hours fully to play.
2. The element of unity led to the whole structure of the Farmers' Music is the repetition. Such repetition is divided into 3kinds.
3. The elements of variety is as follows:
1) the first player of Kaenggari(Sangsae), he transforms the rhythm into a new instantaneous one.
2) the ensemble of rhythms, play, movement, voice, and song.
3) 12kinds of Bupo-play.
4. 12kinds of Bupo-play, instruments, foot-play are used for the musical climax.
