선암사 새벽예불의 음악적 특징과 무형문화적 가치

Abstract

Most of Saebyeogyebul(The Buddhist ritual at dawn) in Korea is commonly used as Chiljeonglye, so traditionalyebul is almost disappearing, On the other hand, the Seonamsa temple is attracting attention as it continuously transmits the tradition-yebul(ritual) consisting of Hyangsuhaerye and Saseongrye. Saebyeogyebul of Seonamsa temple, which is an old temple and Buddhist Mountain Monasteries is composed as follows: Doyangseok, that cleanses the entire temple, Jowangdan-yebul, Ritual in each building of the temple, Jongsong playing at Eunghyanggag, Buddhist drum·Unpan·Mog-eo (Buddhist ceremonial wooden fish percussion instrument)·Beomjong (Buddhist ritual large bell) performed at Beomjongru, souchong, Hyangsuhaerye and Saseongrye, tradition-yebul (ritual) in Daeungjeon (the main Buddha Hall), Haengseonchugwon by Seon-wonjang, Shinjungdan ritual, and Songju with Tasing (Big gong) and drum accompaniment in Manseru, etc. Seonamsa Temple uses the layout space of traditional temple to its fullest for yebulritual, so it has a very three-dimensional and Traditional features of the ritual. Saebyeogyebul (The Buddhist ritual at dawn) in Seonamsa Temple, which takes about 1 hour and 50 minutes from 3 am to 4:50 am every day, is constantly changing places, musical instruments, and playing methods according to the order of rituals. Nevertheless, as if rituals are held in one place are connected by one piece of music without a pause of just one second. The reason why the performance continues as one song like a long symphony even if the venue changes within the temple is all performances must start and end in 5 mangchi rhythm(♪♩ +♩. + ♩. + ♩. + ♩. + ♪♩ + ♩.). The 5 mangchi rhythm is a very important characteristic rhythm in Seonamsa temple Saebyeogyebul (The Buddhist ritual at dawn) and a signal that plays a commanding role. In addition, Seonamsa temple Saebyeogyebul (The Buddhist ritual at dawn) is based on Menali-tori, but the musical characteristics of the Jeolla-do region are also revealed, such as Yugjabaegi-tori appearing in several songs. Saebyeogyebul records were continuously produced at the Jogye Monastic Complex in Korea, but all were recorded only in Chiljeonglye. It shows that interest in tradition-yebul (ritual) has been very weak. On the other hand, Seonamsa temple is transmitting the intangible elements of traditionalyebul by making the most of the tangible elements of an old temple in Saebyeogyebul, So, for the transmission and preservation of traditional-yebul in Korea, the release of the album is essential. The recording of traditional-yebul in traditional temples is an opportunity to inform Buddhists who have recognized only Chiljeonglye as yebuls of existence and value of traditional-yebul, in addition, it is believed that it will play a large role in establishing the identity of Taegojongdan's identity, who has been striving to transmit and preserve the disappearing traditional-yebul.
