Performing the Arts of Indonesia
From Agricultural Tool to Identity Symbol
For centuries the Islanders in remote Bunguran played pestle-and-mortar music with cosmological associations to lighten the chore of stamping husks off rice grain. Different villages developed their own musical syntax, terminology, and repertoire to play at domestic celebrations. Discovery of natural gas in the 1960s led to weakened communal life, while the subsequent stamping of corn and seeds instead of rice required less group energy for music…

Concepts, Terminology and Methodology in Music Performativity Research
A music performance may be defined as the live presentation of a music event by musicians and other participants or stakeholders at a given time and place, usually in the presence of an audience. The concept of music performativity, on the other hand, includes not only the artist's/artists' production of sounds and movements, persona (stage presence), competence, approach, and style, but also influential factors such as the acoustics and style of…
The traditional Sitting Song-Dances
From the 1960s, both the Gayo minority in the highlands of Aceh and the Acehnese majority living in the coastal plains have achieved increased national and international exposure of their traditional song-dances, some of which are performed in the “ standing” position and others in the “ sitting” position. This article focuses on the Gayo saman and the Acehnese ratôh duek (lit. “ sitting chattering”) song-dances, both of which are performed in th…
Music \= Cultures in Contact
Contact between cultures may also lead to rejection as well as suppression of certain types of music. This process leads to such unfavorable circumstances as abandonment of entire works, genres or concepts or loss of instruments; yet such conflicts may also generate new and more positive creative achievements. Contributors include Andrew Alter, Tan Sooi Beng, Zdravko Blazekovic, Stephen Blum, Lê Tuân Hùng, Margaret J. Kartomi, Marcello Sorce Kell…
The Saman Gayo Lues Sitting Song-Dance and ITS Recognition as an Item of Intangible Cultural Heritage
The saman song-dance of the Aceh Gayo Lues people, who inhabit the central mountainous areas of the province of Aceh, is one of the most dramatic and famous of Indonesia's performing arts and a key symbol of Gayo cultural identity, yet it has not to date been a subject of ethnomusicological research
Musical Journeys in Sumatra
Although Sumatra is the sixth largest island in the world and home to an estimated 44 million Indonesians, its musical arts and cultures have not been the subject of a book-length study until now. Documenting and explaining the ethnographic, cultural, and historical contexts of Sumatra's performing arts, this book also traces the changes in their style, content, and reception from the early 1970s onward. The book offers a fascinating ethnographic…
Traditional and Modern Forms of Pencak Silat in Indonesia
Pencak silat (‘the art of self defence’) is a contemporary umbrella term used in Indonesia and Malaysia and other parts of Southeast Asia to designate the hundreds of traditional and modern martial art genres that are performed either solo or as a duel, and with or without musical accompaniment. The two components of the term designate the two parts of the one pencak silat genre: pencak, a performance art, and silat, a fighting and self defence a…
Play songs by children and their educational implications
In the broad enculturative process, children learn to sing and play the music of their particular cultural tradition, which is controlled by adults. In all cultures children are sung or taught songs by adults for children, including such songs as lullabies, nursery rhymes and songs of advice. Clearly distinguishable from this repertoire of songs for children, however, are songs by children. These are songs created by children at play for the purp…

Zeitgenossische Musik in Indonesien
This is the first comprehensive book on the historical background and development of the music scene in Indonesia from the early twentieth century to 2004. As its author argues, the development of classical/traditional ‘local’ or ethnic music, new music, jazz, world music, and popular music scenes may be explained through examining the contradictions that exist between local traditions, national expectations, and international influences.

On Metaphor and Analogy in the Concepts and Classification of Musical Instruments in Aceh
Artists, scholars and audiences in Aceh, the northernmost province of Sumatra, conceive of their percussive, wind and string instruments as symbolising Aceh's "glorious past" and attach a variety of metaphorical and analogous meanings to them. Implicit in the culture, and formulated explicitly by Acehnese scholars, is a classification that divides the instruments at the most general level into three main categories, or metaphorical socio-historic…
Some Implications of Local Concepts of Space in the Dance, Music, and Visual Arts of Aceh
Design in Acehnese dance, music, and visual arts is guided by four general concepts of space. Theupstream-downstreamconcept, governed by the centuries-old tendency to travel to the forests upstream and the coastal towns downstream, is associated with Animist-Hindu-Buddhist mysticism and commercial success respectively, resulting in methods of creating arts and crafts that belong either to upstream or downstream areas or both (in the latter case, …
Debates about and recent effects of globalisation on music in Australia
This essay takes as its point of departure a critical review of Culture in Australia: Policies, Publics and Programs, edited by Tony Bennett and David Carter (2ooi). Its cultural studies approach, particularly as related to Australian interests, makes this an important book for readers of Musicology Australia. I shall therefore recount the book's main arguments at some length, referring to other related literature by authors who have published on…

With some recent exceptions, Western writers on have tended to disapprove of musics of mixed Western and non-Western descent, ignoring or dismissing them as objects unworthy of attention. 1 Some Western scholars during first half of this century began to overcome some of ethnocentric musical prejudices held in their social environments, but mostly this was in regard to traditional non-Western musics that were not apparently influenced by West, fo…

Music-Cultures in Contact
Is Maluku Still Musicological terra incognita ? An Overview of the Music-Cultures of the Province of Maluku
The province of Maluku, otherwise known as the Moluccas, is divided into three main regions: the predominantly Muslim north, the mainly Christian central area, and the predominantly Christian southeast (see Map 1).

In some relatively isolated parts of this large island the original inhabitants such as the …

Music and Trance in Central Java
n the eyes of some Javanese as well as some well-informed outsiders, the cultural identity of the Javanese people is bound up almost entirely with the elegant, brilliant art of the four Central Javanese courts. Perhaps no other area in Indonesia, excepting Bali, can lay claim to such cultural eminence and prestige as the royal seats of Central Java and the regions which they influence culturally. But it is a mistake to assume that the great varie…

Singapore, a South-East Asian haven
Despite the extensive contributions of several major musicologists, our knowledge of the music of the many Jewish communities of the world is still far from complete. Music of many Jewish diaspora communities in South-East Asia, East Asia, Australia, South America, and Africa still await research and comparative study. The music of the Singapore Jewish community, which is primarily Babylonian-Sephardi, is one such area. This article aims to give …

Traditional Music Weeps” and Other Themes in the Discourse on Music, Dance and Theatre of Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand
One of the most remarkable features of the past twenty years of scholarship on the Southeast Asian performing arts has been the sparking off of ideas between Southeast Asian-born scholars, whether trained in Southeast Asian universities or overseas, and Western scholars of the Southeast arts who live in North America, Australia, Europe, Japan and elsewhere. In colonial Indonesia (until 1945) and Malaysia (until 1957), research agendas of Dutch an…
