29. World Music: Australia, ACJ Music Academy



How are you?

Following the last week, I am going to start my 29th lecture.

I had conducted music lectures at Art Collage JANG in Seoul, South Korea every Saturday from March 2015 to December 2017.

I am going to introduce some of the music in the lecture with a brief overview of the lecture by the lecture’s order every Saturday.

Please refer to the following link for my previous lectures.


The 29th lecture for today is "World Music: Australia".

This lecture was the 29th lecture of “ACJ Music Academy”, which was held on 14 November 2015.

Indigenous music in Australia refers to the music of Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders.

The music has existed for many years, integrating the social and cultural elements of the people in these regions.

A representative instrument of traditional Australian indigenous music is the “didgeridoo”, the world's oldest woodwind instrument.

However, in modern times, these indigenous music are developing in the form of fusion mixed with various music styles such as rock 'n' roll, country, hip hop and reggae.

Under these circumstances, Australian Aboriginal singer ‘Jimmy Little’ was the first Australian Aboriginal singer, who succeed with his debut song "The Royal Telephone" in 1964.

Australia's “Bush Music” is a piece of traditional oral culture that dates back to songs sung by inmates who were deported to Australia during the early days of British colonies.

The songs are about the hard lives of people such as criminals, laborers, and herders, and among which is “The Wild Colonial Boy”.

Considered an unofficial national anthem in Australia, “Waltzing Matilda” is one of the typical Australian folk songs, inspired by Celtic folk ballads.

Australian folk music has a unique tradition that mixed Aboriginal traditional music with European folk music introduced from Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries.

In Australia, their traditional folk music from immigrants from Ireland, the United Kingdom, Germany and Scandinavia were dominant.

In this sense, Australian folk music are related to the folk music of other countries with similar ethnic, historical and political origins, such as New Zealand, Canada, and the United States.

Today, I will introduce 3 music as follows:

1. The Royal Telephone-Jimmy Little
2. The Wild Colonial Boy-The Clancy Brothers
3. Waltzing Matilda

You can listen to all the songs from following YouTube link.


Next week, I will lecture "World Music: Polynesia" as my 30th lecture.

Thank you.
