  • Malay Gamelan: Approaches of Music Learning Through Community Music
    International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences 2017, Vol. 7, No. 11 ISSN: 2222-6990 Malay Gamelan: Approaches of music learning through Community Music Wong Huey Yi @ Colleen Wong Department of Music and Music Education, Faculty of Music and Performing Arts, Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Malaysia. Christine Augustine Department of Music and Music Education, Faculty of Music and Performing Arts, Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Malaysia. DOI: 10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i11/3562 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i11/3562 Abstract This paper looked into the role of Rhythm in Bronze (RiB), a local music group in Malaysia, in community music work practices that uses Malay gamelan as the medium. The research delved into the different aspects of the approaches used to enhance music learning through community music; particularly the activities used and how they relate to Vygotsky’s theory of socialization in learning. Community music gathers people from different backgrounds. Experiences and knowledge shared helps the community through the development in terms of personal growth, self- esteem and self-confidence. These terms are just some of the aspects that community music promotes, apart from music making. Along the process of community music, creativity and expression are important in music making, as this will further develop creative thinking skills among musicians. Qualitative approaches such as observation, interview, and group’s past work were used in this research to gather information and data on how music has been taught to children through community music. Social interaction has certainly shown a big role in developing children thinking and perceptions through the activities implemented.

    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 463 Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Languages and Arts (ICLA-2019) Inventory, Identification, and Analysis of Randai Performing Arts Elements for the Development of Minangkabau Theatrical Dance Tulus Handra Kadir1 1 Universitas Negeri Padang, Padang, Indonesia, (email), [email protected] ABSTRACT This article describes the inventory, identification and analysis of elements of Randai performing art for the development of the Minangkabau theatrical dance based on Randai in the context of developing the Minangkabau performing arts. The development of contemporary performing arts, Randai and Minangkabau dance are not able to compete with modern performing arts. On the other hand, Randai has elements of performance that can be used in the development of theatrical dance, as a new form of Minangkabau performing art that combines elements of Randai and dance in Minangkabau. It is expected to be able to keep abreast of developments of contemporary performing arts. Development is based on research conducted qualitatively (the first phase of research) and experimentally (the second phase of research). Qualitative research was used to inventory and analyze data of Randai performance who were unable to compete in the realm of contemporary performing arts as well as inventory and analyze data, especially the elements of the performance that will be used in the development of the Minangkabau theatrical dance. Experimental research was used to create innovative dance that refers to the results of the first phase of research. This research uses an interdisciplinary approach (sociology /anthropology of dance and music, theater, choreography/dance composition, as well as the artistic performances).

  • Mak Yong, a UNESCO “Masterpiece” Negotiating the Intangibles of Cultural Heritage and Politicized Islam
    Patricia Ann Hardwick Sultan Idris Education University, Malaysia Mak Yong, a UNESCO “Masterpiece” Negotiating the Intangibles of Cultural Heritage and Politicized Islam Mak yong is a Malay dance drama once performed for entertainment and heal- ing ceremonies by itinerant theater troupes that traveled throughout northern Malaysia, southern Thailand, and the Riau archipelago of Indonesia. Incorpo- rated into national displays of Malaysian cultural heritage since the mid-1970s, mak yong was declared a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2005. The UNESCO intangible cultural heritage (ICH) designation for mak yong was filed and accepted while mak yong was officially banned in its home state of Kelantan. The validity of mak yong as a symbol of Malay culture, and its ban in Kelantan for religious reasons, are frequently debated in Malaysia. Malaysian mak yong provides a case study of the divergent ways in which administrative and local communities of prac- tice implement the ICH concept of “safeguarding” in a highly charged polit- ical-religious field. International UNESCO designation, ICH safeguarding, and international human rights discourses have to contend with Malay ethnic nationalism and political Islamic movements that have alternatively sought to eradicate the art through bans or remake mak yong in their own image. Keywords: Intangible cultural heritage—UNESCO Masterpiece—Islam— politics—nationalism—communities of practice—safeguarding Asian Ethnology Volume 79, Number 1 • 2020, 67–90 © Nanzan University Anthropological Institute ak yong, a form of Malay theater, was proclaimed a Masterpiece of the Oral Mand Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2005 and incorpo- rated into the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008.
