Banyumas People's Characteristics Symbolically Reflected on Calung
Harmonia: Journal of Arts Research and Education 18 (1) (2018), 82-96 p-ISSN 2541-1683|e-ISSN 2541-2426 Available online at http://journal.unnes.ac.id/nju/index.php/harmonia DOI: 10.15294/harmonia.v18i1.11570 Banyumas People’s Characteristics Symbolically Reflected on Calung Banyumasan Performance Suharto Department of Drama, Dance and Music, Faculty of Language and Arts, Universitas Negeri Semarang, Indonesia Received: Oktober 19, 2017. Revised: April 23, 2018. Accepted: June 10, 2018 Abstract This research aims at examining how Banyumas people’s characteristics are symbolically ex- pressed in Calung Banyumasan performance. This qualitative research employs a hermeneutic approach to examine any symbolic meanings in calung performance. The data are collected by literary study, document study, observation and interview, which are then analyzed using con- tent analysis and interactive analysis of Miles and Huberman. The research results show that some song lyrics identify Banyumas people’s images and characteristics such as equality and honesty (cablaka) just like the ngoko level language they use. The performance consists of opening, Lenggeran, Badhudan, and Baladewan acts in the process of illustrating the character of Banyumas people who love jokes and crowd. Some aspects arising in performance reflect Banyumas people as an egalitarian, straightforward, like-to-gather, and syncretic society.

Innovative Approaches to Melodic Elaboration in Contemporary Tabuh Kreasibaru
INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO MELODIC ELABORATION IN CONTEMPORARY TABUH KREASIBARU by PETER MICHAEL STEELE B.A., Pitzer College, 2003 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Music) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2007 © Peter Michael Steele, 2007 ABSTRACT The following thesis has two goals. The first is to present a comparison of recent theories of Balinese music, specifically with regard to techniques of melodic elaboration. By comparing the work of Wayan Rai, Made Bandem, Wayne Vitale, and Michael Tenzer, I will investigate how various scholars choose to conceptualize melodic elaboration in modern genres of Balinese gamelan. The second goal is to illustrate the varying degrees to which contemporary composers in the form known as Tabuh Kreasi are expanding this musical vocabulary. In particular I will examine their innovative approaches to melodic elaboration. Analysis of several examples will illustrate how some composers utilize and distort standard compositional techniques in an effort to challenge listeners' expectations while still adhering to indigenous concepts of balance and flow. The discussion is preceded by a critical reevaluation of the function and application of the western musicological terms polyphony and heterophony. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ii Table of Contents : iii List of Tables ....

No one tends offhand to associate gamelan with MIT. but there it is. Professor Evan Ziporyn has been directing the gong kebyar ensemble Gamelan Galak Tika at MIT since 1993, and I was an active member from 1994 until 1997. Unfortunately the pressure of my studies at Wesleyan has not allowed me to play with Galak Tika as much as I would like in the past few years. For the three years of my tenure with Galak Tika we were blessed with the artistry of the Balinese husband and wife team of I Nyoman Catra and Desak Made Suarti Laksmi. The magnificent teaching and performance prowess of Evan, Catra and Desak formed the basis of my introduction to gamelan music. In 1997 I came to Wesleyan University to study for the degree of Master of Arts in Music, of which this thesis is a part. Here at Wesleyan I have had the great honor of studying with I. M. Harjito and Sumarsam, two Javanese artists. I sincerely thank them for broadening my awareness of the multifaceted natures of Indonesian music and for sharing with me the great beauty of the central Javanese court gamelan. -

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. -

Bali 1928: Gamelan Gong Kebyar Music from Belaluan, Pangkung
Bali 1928: Gamelan Gong Kebyar Music from Belaluan, Pangkung, Busungbiu 2 Introduction 6 A Sketch of the Time Period of these Recordings 11 Emergence of Kebyar 29 The Balinese Gamelan Recordings from Bali, 1928: a track–by–track discussion: 33 Gamelan Gong Kebyar of Belaluan, Denpasar 46 Gamelan Gong Kebyar of Pangkung, Tabanan 50 Gamelan Gong Kebyar of Busungbiu, Northwest Bali 57 List of Silent Archival Films 58 Acknowledgments 61 References Cited and Further Readings * Glossary on Separate PDF File1 1 The spellings in this article follow modernized Balinese orthography of dictionaries such as Kamus Bali Indonesia, by I Nengah Medera et.al. (1990). Although this system was proposed as early as 1972 it has been applied irregularly in writings on the arts, but we have chosen to adhere to it so as to reflect a closer relationship to actual Balinese aksara ‘letters of the alphabet, language’. For instance, many words with prefixes frequently spelled pe or peng are spelled here with the prefixes pa and pang. 1 Introduction These historic recordings were made in 1928 as part of a collection of the first and only commercially–released recordings of music made in Bali prior to World War II. This diverse sampling of new and older Balinese styles appeared on 78 rpm discs in 1929 with subsequent releases for international distribution. The records were sold worldwide (or not sold, as it happened) and quickly went out of print. It was a crucial time in the island’s musical history as Bali was in the midst of an artistic revolution with kebyar as the new dominant style of music. -
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. -
Balinese Gamelan Gong Kebyar
Balinese gamelan gong kebyar A player’s handbook For a Victoria Continuing Education course (2014) supported by the New Zealand School of Music and Gareth Farr History Gong kebyar emerged during a musical revolution in the early 20th century. This was a time of great social change in Bali the local rulers were losing their power and wealth to the invading Dutch, and villagebased music clubs replaced the royal courts as centres of musical activity. Old court gamelan ensembles were melted down and reforged into gong kebyar sets. The refined court music was also reforged into a dynamic and exciting new musical style, and the virtuosic gong kebyar music quickly became popular all over Bali. Why is it called gong kebyar? The word kebyar refers to the irregularly timed unison passages that are sometimes played at the beginning of a composition. You can hear an example in the dance piece called Margapati. Kebyar passages are unique to gong kebyar music, and always start with an explosive, onomatopoeically named byar chord (hence the name keBYAR). Tuning The pitch collection of the gong kebyar ensemble is a 5note mode called pelog selisir, a subset of the 7note Indonesian scale called pelog. The fourth and seventh pelog notes are left out in pelog selisir, which is why gong kebyar music is notated with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6. Ombak, meaning ‘waves’, is an important feature of gong kebyar tuning. All of the keyed instruments, with the exception of the ugal, are tuned in pairs with one being slightly lower (pengumbang) and one slightly higher (pengisep). -

Tenzer, Theory and Analysis of Melody In
Volume 6, Number 2, May 2000 Copyright © 2000 Society for Music Theory Michael S. Tenzer KEYWORDS: Balinese gamelan, melodic stratification, cyclic meters, symmetries ABSTRACT: Like many other musics with a primarily cyclic approach to melodic and rhythmic organization, Balinese gamelan music of the court or court-derived traditions relies upon on symmetries of one kind or another for structural coherence. Gamelan genres originating in other Balinese historical or cultural contexts have different, often more asymmetrical, kinds of organizing principles. In this article a set of Balinese concepts of melodic motion are used to develop a theory useful for analyzing the variety of symmetrical and asymmetrical structures evident across the repertoire. Recordings and analytical reductions (in Western notation) demonstrate how the concepts may be applied to a broad range of Balinese gamelan music. The aim is to view structural and compositional processes in standard practice, and also to show how structure correlates with historical trends and technological developments. 1. Introduction: Objectives, Repertoires and General Structural Characteristics [1.1] The purpose of this article is to introduce some techniques for analyzing Balinese gamelan compositions, especially those of the gong-chime ensembles of the pre-20th century courts, and their popular village-based contemporary successor, the gamelan gong kebyar. In so doing I hope to establish a framework for perceiving the multidimensional structural coherence of the music in ways reflective of my lengthy experience performing, composing and listening to it. Therefore this is not, strictly speaking, an ethnographic venture. Although it takes concepts and terminology Balinese themselves use as a point of departure, it also adds to them, in order to explore perspectives that Balinese terminologies and classification schema do not attempt to account for. -
