Whereas in most societies musi- cal genres are in the first place classified by social criteria, it is undeniable that also the technicalities of the music play a role: audiences hear the differences between, for instance, jaipongan and degung kawih perfor- mances. This is because these musics are produced in different ways, using different instruments, tone material, musical structure, etc. Alfred Gell made an important contribution to the anthropological study of art by pointing out that the production of art is a technological process. He mentions that there are ‘beautiful’ things, like beautiful women, beautiful horses and a beautiful sunset. However, art objects are made ‘beautiful’ by human beings and this requires technology. He criti- cizes sociologists like Pierre Bourdieu, who do not really look at an art object as a concrete product of human ingenuity, but only elaborately look at the represented symbolic meanings (Gell 1999:162). In contrast, Gell proposes that anthropologists should look at art as a ‘component of technology.’ We call something an object of art if it is the outcome of a technological process, the kind of processes in which artists are skilled.

Popular in Bali, Indonesia, because of its key role in religious ceremonies ​ ​ and tourism, gamelan music developed into one of the most prominent art forms on the island. While an abundance of research exists concerning many aspects of music in Bali, notably on musical genres, types of instruments and their use, and performance settings, little research has been done concerning the suling, the Balinese flute, and its role in Balinese music. Due to an ​ ​ ​ ​ exceptional lack of information in the subject area, this important member of many Balinese gamelan ensembles is often left unnoticed in research.

  • The Angklung of Southeast Asia
    Can You Shake It? The Angklung of Southeast Asia By Professor Kuo-Huang Han School of Music Northern Illinois University Angklung is a popular bamboo musical instrument in Southeast Asia. It is the easiest instrument to play: you just shake it. It is now widely used in music education. In this article, you will be informed about the background, usage, and playing methods of this instrument. A. Bamboo in Asia Bamboo is a type of plant of the grass family. There are about 75 genera and approximately 1000 species in the world. Asia, especially Southeast Asia and the Far East, has the major concentration of bamboo production. In fact, the word "bamboo" came from a Malay term, "bambu", which originally described the crackling sound of burning bamboo: "bam"! "bu"! Bamboo seems to grow everywhere in these regions. It is one of the most important materials in many Asian peoples’ daily lives. It is also a symbol of good luck and an essential part in their spiritual lives. 1. Material Culture Bamboo is strong but light and elastic. Throughout the ages, it has been used for a great variety of purposes. It is used as building material for houses, fences, bridges, irrigation pipes, bulletin boards, tables, chairs, and beds. It is also used as a carrying pole, a walking stick, chopsticks, water containers, cups, pencil holders, bow and arrows, etc. Split bamboo is used for weaving nets, hats, baskets, and umbrellas. Finally, bamboo shoots and bamboo seeds can be eaten. Bamboo pulp fibers were used to make paper. In ancient times, bamboo slips were used for carving characters.

  • The Javanese Gamelan Kyai Madu Laras (Venerable Sweet Harmony)
    THE JAVANESE GAMELAN KYAI MADU LARAS (VENERABLE SWEET HARMONY) A gift to the Faculty of Music from The Minister of Forestry of The Republic of Indonesia H.E.SUDJARWO JEREMY MONTAGU THE BATE COLLECTION OF HISTORICAL INSTRUMENTS UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD FACULTY OF MUSIC St.Aldate’s, Oxford £ 1.00 Sixth Edition Jeremy Montagu Among the earliest evidence for the Javanese Gamelan are a few instruments found archæologically and carvings on the eighth century AD Temple of Boro- bodur, which include bonangs1, sarons and gongs. Some instruments, including the rebab and the tarompet (a shawm which is displayed in the Shawm Case), were introduced with Islam in about the 14th century, and by the 15th century gamelans existed much as they do today. An increase in the number of instru- ments has continued, and the inclusion of a full set of kenongs and kempuls is comparatively recent. There are many varieties of gamelan in Indonesia today, consisting of different types and combinations of instruments, some with instruments made of bamboo, some with instruments of bronze, others with those of iron, and some with large numbers of instruments, and some with only a few. The Gamelan Kyai Madu Laras is the classic type of Central Javanese gamelan and is a full double gamelan of high-quality bronze instruments. It came to us from Klaten, a small town halfway between the two great centres of Central Javanese gamelan, Surakarta (or Solo) and Yogyakarta (or Jogya), as a most generous gift from the Minister of Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia, His Excellency Sudjarwo.

  • 59. Gong Kebyar De Sebatu (Bali) Baris Melampahan
    59. Gong Kebyar de Sebatu (Bali) Baris Melampahan (For Unit 6: Further Musical Understanding) Background information and performance circumstances Gamelan Music is deeply embedded in Indonesian (or Javanese) culture. Evidence of the existence of ensembles dates to the eighth-century BCE but it is believed that the Gamelan may have been in use 500 years earlier. In Javanese mythology, a god, Sang Hyang Guru, used a gong to summon other gods and, for more complex messages, he added extra gongs, thereby inventing the Gamelan. There are now three main types of Gamelan music: Javanese, Balinese and Sundanese; it is Balinese Gamelan (from the Indonesian island of Bali) of which Baris Melampahan is an example. Although Gamelan music on Bali is now regularly performed for tourists, it is vital to remember that the principal and original performing circumstances of the music were for ritual and ceremonial purposes. It is also worth noting that Gamelan belongs to the oral (or perhaps more appropriately ‘aural’) tradition of folk music – notation is a tool for analysing the music but the musicians themselves learn by ear and are taught by an instructor (called a sekaha). The term ‘Baris’ means a line or military formation and, in this context, refers to a traditional male war dance of which there are a great many types. The differing titles usually refer to the weapons used in the dance: for example, Baris Bedil uses rifles and Baris Bajra uses clubs. Baris Melampahan, which developed in the early twentieth-century, is an elaborate exception to the norm of Balinese Baris dances.
