[KS] RE: Korean National Anthem

[Keith Howard]

In response to Don, and others who have asked:

To correct the most obvious mistake in the TKBRAS quote from Karl
Leuteritz, there are a number of good sources about the introduction of
Western music in Korea in the late 19th century, notably No Tongûn's
'Han'guk minjok ûmak hyôndan'gye' (Segwang, 1989), and Yi Yusôn's 'Han'guk
yangak paengnyônsa (Chungang Uni. 1985). As for Eckert's national anthem,
it is quoted, with a reasonable image of the manuscript copy, in Chang
Sahun's 'Yômyông ûi t'ongsô ûmak (Pojinje, 1974).
