The Division for Development and Public Relations     Research Project Name: Japanese school songs in Manchuria: Partners: Surname   First Name   Courses   EPPSTEIN URY [Courses List] Research Abstract: During the Japanese rule in Manchuria, music education was conducted  by school songbooks published for this purpose. These were different  from those in use in Japan in terms of melodies, texts and content.  These differences will be examined by a description of song texts and  by a musical analysis of the melodies. Since school songs in Japan  reflected official political ideologies, an analysis will be made as  to what extent ideology figures in the Manchurian songs.    © All rights reserved to The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
