The Formation of Genre in Burmese Songs with Special Reference to Song Creating Techniques from Eighteenth to Nineteenth Centuries

我分析了歌曲选本手稿，并观察了在每年举行的表演艺术比赛中的表演，以及学习乐器，特别是缅甸竖琴的学生。我还从老师那里口头学习了缅甸竖琴。我证明了，在口头传统中，曲调模式有着重要的作用。此外，即使在表演艺术的竞争中，也可以观察到由于记录，教育制度而被称为统一的变体。同时，阐述了古典歌曲体裁划分的形成过程，并总结了体裁划分对演唱的影响。

I analyzed song anthologies manuscripts, and observed the performance in the competition of performing arts which is held every year, and students who study instruments, especially Burmese harp. I also took lessons of Burmese harp by orally from my teacher. I demonstrated that, in oral tradition, the tune patterns have a important role. Further, the variant which is said to be unified because of recordings, educational system, still can be observed even in the competition of performing arts. Meanwhile, I illustrated how the genre divisions in classical songs had been formed, and I concluded these genre divisions have influence on performance.
