Abstract

Objective: This study aims to address the need of Sekolah Indonesia Den Haag (SIDH) for a school march song as a symbol of pride and an educational tool to instill national values within a multicultural environment. Method: The research employs a practice-led research (PLR) method with an artistic approach, involving a step-by-step creation process including lyric writing, idea and melody exploration, and musical composition. The process engages teachers, SIDH academic community members, and music experts, and includes documentation, discussions, and song trials with the school institution to ensure alignment with its values and needs. Results and Discussion: The main outcome of the research is the creation of an SIDH school march song that is easy to remember and carries a strong message of nationalism, fostering unity and a shared school identity. The documented creative process highlights collective involvement as a participatory approach in developing educational works. Conclusion: This study affirms the fundamental importance of a school march song in shaping identity, reinforcing national values, and nurturing nationalism in Indonesian educational environments abroad. Its novelty lies in meeting a real institutional need with a contextually relevant composition and providing a creative process model that may serve as a reference for other schools.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to describe the effectiveness of a singing-based approach in introducing numbers and letters to early childhood learners at TK Melati Purwakarta. Considering that early childhood cognitive development is characterized by symbolic and imaginative thinking, this period is regarded as a golden age for the introduction of early literacy skills. Method: This study employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive method. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews, and documentation of learning activities. Results and Discussion: The findings indicate that the singing-based approach enhances children’s ability to recognize numbers and letters in an enjoyable and meaningful way. Songs combined with body movements and visual media were found to improve memory, concentration, and active engagement in the learning process. Teachers implemented learning activities systematically, beginning with the selection of theme-appropriate songs and continuing through to the evaluation of children’s development. In addition to cognitive benefits, this approach also contributed positively to the development of children’s musicality and social-emotional skills. Conclusion: The singing-based approach represents an effective and appropriate alternative teaching method in early childhood education, particularly for introducing numbers and letters in a fun and meaningful manner.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to explore the personal branding strategies of musicians in live music performances within commercial public spaces, focusing on performances at Summarecon Mall Bandung. The research examines how musicians maintain their musical identity and personal branding when performing under genre regulations determined by mall management. Method: This research employs a qualitative approach using a multi-case study method. The research subjects consist of two bands that regularly perform at Summarecon Mall Bandung, namely Band Miracle and Band Soundmate. Data were collected through direct observation of live music performances, structured interviews with 14 band members, and interviews with approximately 30 mall visitors who attended the performances. Supporting data in the form of photographs, videos, and song setlists were also utilized. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis, and data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation. Results and Discussion: The findings indicate that musicians’ personal branding in live music performances is not solely determined by musical genre, but is strongly shaped by performative strategies, audience interaction, and musicians’ attitudes toward performance regulations. Band Miracle emphasizes energetic stage performance, intensive audience interaction, and selective song rearrangements, while Band Soundmate constructs personal branding in a more flexible and organic manner through casual communication and relaxed stage presentation. Conclusion: Live music performances in shopping malls function as both strategic and challenging spaces for musicians in maintaining personal branding. Despite genre restrictions, musicians are able to preserve their musical identity through adaptive performance strategies and meaningful audience engagement.
