Abstract

The history of Air Majapahit is one of the events of the arrival of Princess Majapahit in Negeri Ema which has been told orally from generation to generation. The history of Majapahit Water can be proven true by the existence of Majapahit kingdom relics in the form of heirloom spears, Gamelan, Betel places and Majapahit springs which are still well preserved in Negeri Ema. Based on this phenomenon, it was then used as a nonmusical concept to work on a musical composition. The composition of Traces of Majapahit is a narrative program musical work which contains elements of the history of Air Majapahit, which was created in the form of varied music and using western instruments. The process of creating the musical composition Traces of Majapahit went through several stages, namely (1) exploration of literature regarding musical disciplines and observation of Majapahit water history; (2) processing the relationship between musical elements and nonmusical concepts as a basis for the construction of musical compositions; (3) cultivating musical elements into variations using the main theme development procedure from Leon Stein’s theory; (4) presentation of the work in orchestra format. This work contains cultural value in the almost forgotten relationship between the Majapahit kingdom and Negeri Ema, so that through this work it is hoped that the history of Air Majapahit will be preserved.

Abstract

This study highlights the culture of the Sangihe Talaud community, regarding the M?samper? song. M?samper? is the ancestral culture of the Sangihe community which has been passed down from generation to generation until now. The Sangihe Islands are one of the islands located in North Sulawesi Province. The term Mebawalase Mesampere means to reply in the Sangihe language, which is a singing style where the singers will reply to each other's songs (like replying to pantun). Daralo is a song composition inspired by Mebawalase Mesampere. Researchers found several styles of Mebawalase Mesampere singing in the work of daralo. Researchers also found that the creators of Mebawalase Mesampere songs did not include their names or were anonymous, so that the Mebawalase Mesampere-style songs that were created will gradually become extinct. This study uses qualitative methods with data analysis and interviews. In terms of the creation of Daralo, the style of the song Mebawalase Mesampere is performed using western musical instruments, so that the nuances of the song that characterize Mebawalase Mesampere are more creative and innovative. The results of the study have been performed at STT Jaffray Makassar in a recital as a requirement for the final exam for the concentration of church music.

Abstract

This study aims to explain that the process of building and maintaining peace in the context of a plural society can be carried out by reactivating the collective memory and cultural identity of the community. Cultural memory and cultural identity that are based on historical-cultural experience are a social capital that nurtures harmony between communities. Qualitatively this study uses a literature study and field research approach. To explore the concepts of collective memory and cultural identity, author uses the concept from Edwards Shils, Maurice Halbwachs, and Paul Gilbert. The field study was obtained through a process of in-depth interviews with key informants, including religious leaders such as the Pastor and Imam of the Mosque, facilitators and community leaders in Batumerah from two communities, Islam and Christianity. Finally, the authors found that the collective memory of the cultural identity of Maluku people as brother people (orang basudara) is a strong social capital to transform conflict, and maintain peace among post-conflict communities. This can be a theoretical foothold in managing the diversity of peaceful lives as fellow brothers in Indonesia.
