Palkha (PARK-uh; Windermere: Parca /ˈpʰaɾkʰə/, Palkhan: Paḷkha /paɭkʰa/, Roshterian: Qaanuuṯu) is a predominantly Windermere-speaking Bjeheondian country. It is located near Verse:Tricin/Qaaroshter.
Geography
Its capital is Răthamrona (Ḷdamrōṇa in the native Paḷkhan language).
Wildlife
Palkha has distinct wildlife though not as distinct as Cualuav.
Music
Inspiration: gayageum sanjo, Ancient Greek music?
The quintessential Palkhan musical instruments are (some kind of lyre or fiddle?), and the Palkhan drum (feam Parca in Windermere; ??? in Palkhan).
Palkhan music is highly multi-ethnic and uses elements from both native styles and Talman ones. Native Palkhan music tends to be richly ornamented, and is based on a heptatonic scale.
Some ornaments include:
- grace notes
- rapid trills and turns
- slides
Palkha has its own offshoot of Windermere music as well. Some styles that fell out of use in Talma are still commonly performed in Palkha, such as the song with intoning voice (wălam yăthmear). Palkha is in fact home to the composer Dăraf Ko, a leading composer of yăthmear songs today, some of which incorporate native Palkhan classical styles in addition to Windermere ones.
Răthamrona school
Rough timeline:
50 years before present: Styles very similar to minimalism and ambient music emerge in Palkha. Pieces composed by the Răthamrona school around that time can stretch for over 5 hours.
30 years BP: People have enough of that style and rebel, creating some of the most wildly dissonant music in Tricin (sometimes using crazy equal temperaments).
25 years BP: Minimalism makes a comeback in a slightly more "folksy" form (pieces are shorter etc.) The PSyT (Prăctheng Sngoal Yătălisrił "Experimental Music Society") forms a branch in Palkha, led by Schaus-Schaus Flein. More fully acoustic pieces are written in the last 25 years.
Palkhan minimalism
Minimalist pieces from the Răthamrona school, ironically, have some of the most complex harmonic progressions in Trician music. One famous piece, ???, has over a hundred chord progressions, each modulating up by a microcomma.
Palkhan postminimalism
Palkhan musical compositions from the last three decades often revolve around polyrhythms.
Famous Palkhans
Dăraf Ko - neoclassical composer of (Bjeheondian) Windermere descent
Minimalist composers?
A Brian Eno-like figure?
Schaus-Schaus Flein - postminimalist composer
