抄録

This paper describes how the relationship between female Okinawan folk singers and Okinawan folk songs changed from the 1940’s to the 1970’s through their local performance spaces. The musical activities of today’s female folk singers cover a wide range, from participation in events and media to live performances at folk song bars. Today, the activities of these female folk singers are naturally accepted, but looking back on their history, the relationship between female folk singers and Okinawan folk songs has changed greatly. The author interviews Okinawan folk singers born in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s and examines how the relationship between female folk singers and Okinawan folk songs has changed.
