Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis struktur musikal dan makna tekstual tiga lagu populer Nias ciptaan Man Harefa, yaitu Tano Niha Ni’omasioda, Hulo Omasio, dan Yae Wangandorogu. Lagu-lagu ini dipilih karena merepresentasikan identitas budaya dan nilai spiritual masyarakat Nias, baik di kampung halaman maupun di perantauan. Penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan etnomusikologis dan semiotik. Teknik pengumpulan data meliputi observasi terhadap rekaman lagu, transkripsi notasi musik, wawancara dengan narasumber utama, serta penyebaran kuesioner kepada masyarakat Nias. Analisis musikal dilakukan berdasarkan teori struktur melodi William P. Malm, sedangkan analisis makna lirik menggunakan teori semiotika Roland Barthes. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketiga lagu memiliki struktur melodi yang sederhana namun ekspresif, dengan pola kontur naik-turun yang mencerminkan nuansa emosional. Secara tekstual, lirik lagu memuat simbolisme lokal yang kuat dan mengangkat tema cinta tanah air, kerinduan, serta harapan spiritual. Simpulan dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa lagu-lagu Man Harefa tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai hiburan, tetapi juga sebagai media pelestarian budaya, penguatan identitas, dan refleksi nilai-nilai sosial masyarakat Nias.

Abstract

This study examines the social and cultural functions of sigu lewuö, a traditional bamboo flute of the Nias community, through an ethnomusicological approach. The research was conducted in Gunungsitoli and South Nias using qualitative methods, including observation, in-depth interviews with local musicians and community leaders, and literature review. The findings reveal that sigu lewuö has experienced a significant transformation in both meaning and function within contemporary Nias society. Originally associated with mourning rituals and ceremonial contexts, the instrument is now widely used as a medium of entertainment, artistic performance, and cultural preservation. In addition, sigu lewuö serves as an accompaniment to traditional songs, a form of artistic expression, and a symbol of ethnic identity among younger generations. This transformation reflects the adaptive strategies of the Nias community in maintaining and revitalizing traditional cultural practices amid ongoing social, cultural, and technological changes.

Abstract

This study describes the technique of making the traditional musical instrument Sisibah Drum preserved by Mr. Atur Pandapotan Solin at the Ninanola Studio, Sukaramai Village, Pakpak Bharat Regency. Sisibah Drum is a traditional musical instrument originating from the Pakpak tribe. This musical instrument is classified as a struck membranophone (a musical instrument whose sound source comes from skin or membrane that is played by being hit). Sisibah Drum has spiritual value and social function in carrying out traditional ceremonies such as Kerja Mbaik and Kerja Njahat. This study aims to examine and describe in depth the process of making Sisibah Drum, including its physical structure, materials and tools used, and the role of this music in the cultural life of the Pakpak people. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and visual documentation. The theoretical framework includes the organological theory of Sushumu Kashima to examine the physical and structural aspects of the instrument, the Sachs-Hornbostel classification used in classifying instrument types, and the theory of musical function according to A.P. Merriam. The results of this study indicate that the Sisibah Drum is still made using traditional methods and techniques that are still used today. Local materials used in the Sisibah Drum making process consist of several types, such as Mbrabas wood, coffee wood, and animal skin. The stages used start from material selection, forming the instrument body, installing the membrane, and tuning the sound. In addition to being a musical instrument, the Sisibah Drum also functions as a means of spiritual communication and a symbol of the Pakpak tribe's cultural identity. The Ninanola Studio plays an active role in  preserving the Sisibah Drum musical instrument to this day.
