Abstract

The development of contemporary church music often shifts attention away from the quality of liturgical vocals, particularly in the ministry of singing carried out by cantors/psalmists and choirs who lead the congregation. Yet, excellent vocal technique is a crucial element for leading the congregation in prayer and conveying the liturgical message with reverence. This research aims to examine the implementation of classical (seriosa) vocal technique within the context of worship, focusing on its function in enhancing the musical quality and spirituality of the liturgy. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a library research approach. This approach was chosen because the study focuses on the exploration, analysis, and conceptual synthesis needed to answer theoretical-explanatory research questions regarding the integration of seriosa vocal technique into the liturgical realm. The research results indicate that the application of seriosa principles (such as diaphragmatic breathing, voice formation, articulation, and clear phrasing) significantly improves the clarity, projection, stability, and prayerful quality of liturgical singing. However, its implementation faces challenges such as the lack of specialized vocal training for liturgical ministers and the need to adapt the technique to remain flexible and not overly operatic. The research conclusion underscores that seriosa vocal technique is not merely an artistic achievement but an effective pastoral tool for supporting the congregation's actuosa participatio. The implication is the necessity of integrating contextual seriosa-based vocal training into the formation of future priests, religious figures, and leaders of liturgical music.

Abstract

This study aims to interpret the meaning of Raisa Andriana’s song “Si Paling Mahir” using Hans-Georg Gadamer’s hermeneutical approach. Employing a qualitative case study with an interpretive design, the study analyzes the lyrics and their socio-cultural context. Data were obtained from the song lyrics, audio transcripts, academic literature on Gadamerian hermeneutics, the music video, and public responses on digital platforms. Data were collected through documentary study and observation, then analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the song’s meaning emerges through the interaction between the text and listeners’ lived experiences. Four hermeneutical dimensions are identified: historically, the lyrics reflect the tendency to display happiness on social media; dialectically, “always being fine” functions as an exhausting defense mechanism; prejudice reveals the cultural expectation to suppress negative emotions; and the fusion of horizons reconciles responsibility toward others with the need for self-care. The study contributes a hermeneutical model for interpreting Indonesian popular music.
