    Music ensembles

    Of
    Laos and Vietnam

    Group 5
    Laos
    Laos
    Laos
    The Lao orchestra can be divided to
    two categories:
    Vietnam is officially known as
    the Socialist Republic of
    Vietnam. This country is
    located on the eastern coast
    of the Indochinese Peninsula.
    VIETNAM
    On the other hand, other influences can be
    seen with the ethnic minorities, such as the
    Chàm or Montagnard people. This
    possibly due to interaction with the other
    countries of Southeast Asia. Vietnamese
    music shows signs of Indian influences,
    noticable in improvisation preludes music
    (known as rao in the South and dao in the
    north) as well as usage of onomatopoeia
    in drum playing.
    Although Vietnam is geographically part
    of Southeast Asia, ten centuries of rule
    by the Chinese to the north have made
    the culture much closer to Far East than
    to its Southeast Asian neighbors. This
    early music theory was either based
    upon or adapted to the prevailing
    Chinese theory, and the majority of
    instruments used in the royal court were
    of Chinese origin.
    Traditional and Folk Music
    Vietnamese traditional music can be
    separated into a few major
    categories, divided predominantly
    by the way in which were used in the
    people's cultural lives.
    2. Folk Music - This category is extremely diverse because
    it includes music performed both indoors and outdoors.
    Performers of this category are also diverse. They may
    be professional musicians down to the blind artists in the
    streets who perform to earn their living. Vietnamese folk
    music is performed in different occasions depending on its
    sub-category. It may be performed in musical theatres,
    streets, courtship rituals and ceremonies for invoking
    spirits. They are sometimes also influenced by western
    elements. Some Vietnamese music only makes use of
    female singers and some have both male and female
    singers.

    3. Religious and Ceremonial Music - This is the music


    performed in religious rituals or at funerals
    Categories of Vietnamese Music
    1. Imperial Court Music - The most popular of this
    kind is the nha nhac that was popularly
    performed during the Tran Dynasty to the Nguyen
    Dynasty. This form of classical music is also
    performed in honor of the Gods and scholars in
    temples. Other classical music falling into this
    category includes the dai nhac (small music) which
    was performed as chamber music for the King.
