Abstract

Malay gamelan is a traditional music ensemble that accompanies the Joget Gamelan dance and was found in the palace of Johor-Riau, Pahang, and Terengganu in the 19th century, before disappearing in 1942. Malay Gamelan was exclusively taught in the palace orally, that is, through the process of listening, observing, memorising, and repeating; much like other classical Malay traditional arts. This study was initiated to discuss some aspects of Malay gamelan music in detail as there is little documentation regarding Malay gamelan in the academic world. Several writings on Joget Gamelan were produced based on the 1966 discovery in Terengganu and the inaugural performance in 1969 at the University of Malaya. However, attention to the different aspects of Malay gamelan music was not exhaustive. This study explores the playing techniques of keromong and gambang that were traditionally taught and passed down among Malay gamelan practitioners. A qualitative method was used in this research, whereby the earliest recordings of Malay gamelan music were analysed and interviews were conducted with informants, or also known as adiguru of Malay gamelan practitioners who studied directly with the last generation of Terengganu court musicians. The objective of this study is to 1) identify the techniques of keromong playing in Malay gamelan, and 2) identify the techniques of gambang playing in Malay gamelan. Findings from this study will provide an understanding of the musical instruments and what defines the style of Malay gamelan music, as well as become a guide for future researchers and practitioners in efforts to conserve and preserve the Malay traditional art.
马来佳美兰:柯洛蒙和甘邦的演奏技巧
马来佳美兰是一种传统的音乐合奏,伴随着Joget佳美兰舞蹈,在19世纪在柔佛廖内,彭亨和登嘉楼的宫殿中被发现,在1942年消失之前。马来甘美兰在王宫里只进行口头教学,即通过听、观察、记忆和重复的过程;就像其他古典马来传统艺术一样。这项研究是为了详细讨论马来甘美兰音乐的一些方面,因为在学术界很少有关于马来甘美兰的文献。根据1966年在登嘉楼的发现和1969年在马来亚大学的首演,撰写了几篇关于嘉美兰的文章。然而,对马来佳美兰音乐的不同方面的关注并不是详尽的。本研究探讨马来佳美兰演奏者传统上传授和传承的keromong和gambang的演奏技巧。本研究采用定性方法,分析马来佳美兰音乐的最早录音,并与信息者进行访谈,或直接与最后一代丁加奴宫廷音乐家学习的马来佳美兰实践者的adiguru进行访谈。本研究的目的是1)确定马来佳美兰中keromong的演奏技巧,以及2)确定马来佳美兰中gambang的演奏技巧。这项研究的结果将提供对乐器的理解,以及马来佳美兰音乐风格的定义,并成为未来研究人员和从业者努力保护和保存马来传统艺术的指南。
