Revised: May 6, 2017. Accepted: June 3, 2017 Abstract This research is an anthropology of music which discusses the dynamics of strékan music from colonial to contemporary era in Situbondo. In Situbondo, strékan is a term which refers to music for welcoming guests. By ethnography method and postcolonial perspective, this research will discuss social problems and phenomena of strékan music. The result of this research shows that a change of strékan music signifies a change of social condition in Situbondo. In colonial erastrékan is assumed by people like music for elite class. The field data show that there is unequal power relation between colonized and colonizer. In pasca-colonial era the hierarchy relation becomes ambivalent. It appears negotiation space between colonial signs and Madurese culture of Situ- bondo people, considered to be symbolic resistance. Strékan music is reinterpreted as music for low class. In the contemporary era, strékan music tends to market oriented. Strékan music includes dangdut music, following market taste as a consequence of commercialization of art.

Many of the uniqueness of Madura language that is not used in the speech, replaced with the Indonesian language. Recently, in Madura language communication, it is found the use of lexical elements that are not in accordance with the phonological rules of Madura Language. Consequently, in the future, Madura language will increasingly lose its uniqueness as a language, instead it will appear more as a dialect of the Indonesian language. Nowadays, the insecurity of Madura language has begun to appear with the shrinking use of this language in communication. Therefore, if there is no a very serious and planned effort, Madura language will be extinct soon; No longer claimed as language, but will only become one of the dialects of the Indonesian language. Keywords: language change, uniqueness, dialectic, speech level, development.

  • CBA Drum Tuning
    Hello band directors! I know you’re in the throw of marching band season and I wanted to help you with an easy task to improve the overall sound of your ENTIRE ENSEMBLE! I’ve seen a few groups this year and wanted to share some information about tuning the marching percussion section. First: consider the size of your ensemble. If your group is smaller, choose smaller bass drum sizes. The bigger drums will drown our your wind section and affect the balance of your group. Second: Tune the drums on a regular basis! I know you tune your wind section every day. Same should go for the percussion section. Third: Tips and tricks -I’ve included a link to the Evans Drumheads tuning guide which has great information! http://www.evansdrumheads.com/upload/ EVBR_MPSG07_Marching_Percussion_Survival_Guide_12562.pdf -A few things to add to the link -I tune bass drums to a major triad ex. 28” C, 24” G, 22” C, 20” E and 18” G -This might differ slightly depending on your drum sizes, head combination etc. -Tuning a major triad makes split playing more melodic and unison stronger -Most groups I’ve seen this year had bass drums with TOO LOW of a tuning scheme. This creates a low rumble which lacks clarity and over balances the wind section. -Also make sure your bass drums have proper dampening. Too much “boom” will again over balance the winds and create a lack of clarity. The Evans MX series heads are a great start! Fourth: Front Ensemble -Tune for articulation, balance and sound quality -I tune concert bass drums to the same root pitch as the triad in the marching basses -Keep timpani in tune DAILY! Weather changes will affect the tuning drastically -give your student/staff time in the lot on show days to “clear” timpani heads Happy tuning and good luck with your season!

  • A REAL THREAT from WITHIN: Muhammadiyah's Identity
    Suaidi Asyari A REAL THREAT FROM WITHIN: Muhammadiyah’s Identity Metamorphosis and the Dilemma of Democracy Suaidi Asyari IAIN Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin - Jambi Abstract: This paper will look at Muhammadiyah as a constantly metamorphosing organism from which have grown modernist-reformist, liberalist progressive, political pragmatist and potentially violent fundamentalist-radical Muslims. It will argue that the trajectory passed by and the victory of the radical-puritan element in the National Congress 2005 can potentially become an obstacle for Muhammadiyah's involvement in the process of implementing democratic values in Indonesia in the future. To keep watching Muhammadiyah’s trajectory is crucially important due to the fact that this organization is one of the powerful forces in the world toward the democratization process. In order to be on the right track of democracy, Muhammadiyah has to be able to cope with its internal disputes over democratic values. Only by means of coping with these internal disputes can this organization ensure its role in propagating and disseminating democratic ideas as well as practices in Indonesia. Keywords: Muhammadiyah, metamorphoses, identity, democracy Introduction: An Overview of Muhammadiyah To date, Muhammadiyah has been plausibly assumed to be a moderate Islamic organization which is in a similar position to Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and does not have any connections with radical individuals or organizations that could be associated with radical Islamic ideology.

  • Connecting Orff Schulwerk and Balinese Gamelanаа
    Connecting Orff Schulwerk and Balinese Gamelan CAIS Workshop p​resented by Elisabeth Crabtree, March 9, 2015 e​[email protected] ​or e​[email protected] What is Gamelan? Gamelan refers to a set of Balinese instruments that form up a percussion orchestra (metallophones, bamboo xylophones, gongs, drums, other percussion, and the bamboo flute). It also refers to the style of Balinese music that is played upon the instruments. There are over 30 different types of Gamelan, with various tunings. Gamelan groups perform music to accompany dancers, masked dancers (t​openg)​, and puppet shows (w​ ayang)​. There are also “sitting pieces” that are just for listening. The music can be both secular and sacred. Why Teach Gamelan? ➢ Translates easily to Orff Instruments, recorder, and small percussion ➢ Uses cycles and ostinatos, music like the elemental style of Orff ➢ Offers opportunities for differentiated instruction ➢ Teaches cultural awareness and diversity ➢ Has direct applications to many 5​th ​grade California State Standards ➢ It has influenced many composers such as Debussy, Satie, Lou Harrison & others ➢ It’s fun and enjoyable! Students love it and remember it many years later Warm Up Hocket Game­ 1­2­3 (Clap­Stomp­Snap) ● With a partner, trade off counting to three. Groups of three are no good for this game. ● Add a clap every time someone says “one.” Next add a stomp for “two” and finally a snap for “three.” Celebrate if you make a mistake, and start again. ● Variation: take out the words and only do body percussion ● Celebrate whenever you make a mistake and try again, increasing the speed ● Point out the pattern: The person who starts says “1­3­2” and the second person says “2­1­3.” ● Final practice phase, two large groups performing the body percussion piece in hocket Hocket Game: Speaking a Rhyme Tell a nursery rhyme with a partner; alternate each person saying a stanza or phrase.
