Семантични аспекти на форма, материал и звук при някои традиционни инструменти
Semantic Asprcts of Shape, Material and Sound in Some

Summary/Abstract: The present text focuses the attention on the semantics of the interrelation material - sound and on anthropomorphic symbolic connotations in some traditional instruments. The relation material - sound is interpreted by the temporal axis tradition - modernity with a view to the use of the basic material sound resonators -wood and artificial materials. The symbolic meanings of the type of sound characteristic for some trees and artificial materials are examined. The semantics of the functioning of sound in mulberry and acacia gadulka, in cornel-tree kaval and in bamboo and plexiglas piskun of gaidunitsa is being stressed. The semantics of chain breathing in the kaval is being examined as well. Anthropomorphic codes, setting the coordinates of the relationship instrument-person are being analyzed as a specific culmination in the symbolic hierarchy of material, shape and sound of traditional instruments. In interpreting this relation the symbolic dimensions of the psychophysical reflection of the musician towards his/her personal instrument are being entered.
