Abstract

Music serves not only as an artistic expression but also as a medium to convey important social and political messages. For example, the punk band Pyong-Pyong from Semarang City uses music to critique social conditions. Over the span of two decades, the band has undergone transformations in its members and musical style, with their latest album, "Pigza," showcasing their evolution in the music industry. This research analyzes the symbolism in the lyrics of the songs from "Pigza" used for social critique. Using a qualitative approach and Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis method, this study explores the symbolism in the lyrics of "Pigza" songs. Findings indicate that four songs in the album — "Jika," "Mereka," "Kurang Piknik," and “Kita Ingin Damai” — articulate deep messages about social conditions and individual experiences in modern society.

Abstract

Bhineka Tunggal Ika reflects national identity, which contains cultural diversity values in Indonesia. Issues of intolerance and globalization often found in Indonesia are the main reasons for instilling children’s character values about diversity through children’s trilingual songs. This study aims to create and develop children’s songs in three languages (trilingual), namely Indonesian, English, and Javanese, as an effort to strengthen children’s character about tolerance and diversity. This research is a type of research and development (RD) using the ASSURE model by combining qualitative and quantitative methods (mixed method). Data collection was carried out using the method of observation, interviews, and written input on the assessment sheet. Meanwhile, quantitative data is collected through questionnaires and assessment sheets in percentage values from experts and users. The results of the study show that the song “Harmony in Diversity” can be used as an educational medium in educating children to have a global outlook but still love the national language and preserve regional languages. This is because they have studied, expressed, and appreciated songs with trilingual meanings and lyrics. The children’s song “Harmoni dalam Keberagaman” is declared feasible and applicable for learning at the elementary school level. This is evidenced by the data validation results, which show that all indicators, namely song components, language, appearance, audiovisual media engineering, and implementation, get very feasible criteria, with an average score of 89.59%. The aspect that gets the highest score is the display aspect, with a score of 90.48%, and the aspect with the lowest percentage is the visual media design component and the song component, with a score of 87.5%..

Abstract

Drama is one of the components of theater education that can be integrated with other art forms. Within the various elements of theater or drama, there is a collaboration of visual arts, music, dance, drama, and literature. Popular music has been developing in Indonesia since the colonial era, particularly in the 20th century. During this period, genres such a Krontjong, Jazz, orchestral music, and rock music began to emerge. In the world of popular music, rock music has carved out its own space among enthusiasts, symbolizing freedom, rebellion, and high creativity, marked by its dynamic melodies and rhythms, as well as its profound lyrical content. Rock music has become a medium through which listeners express themselves. This article aims to elaborate on musical drama as a form of performance conducted by secondary school students, who take on the dual roles of actors and production team members, in exploring rock music through musical theatre. Such an approach enriches the students’ acting experiences within a musical context. Integrating rock music into the performing arts provides a fresh atmosphere that can influence the students’ characteristics and experiences. This study employs an exploratory qualitative method, involving various stakeholders, to analyze the implementation and impact not only to enhance students’ experiences in acting, but also to stimulate creativity by encouraging the analysis of rock music characteristics, which are expressed through drama. This process supports the development of diverse ideas in musical theatre, ultimately contributing to the quality and elements of school-based musical performance

Abstract

 Kajian mengenai penerapan warna dalam sebuah notasi musik belum banyak dijumpai di Indonesia. Pembelajaran piano dasar pada umumnya menggunakan notasi balok tanpa warna yang seringkali membuat anak usia prasekolah kesulitan dalam menerapkannya. Terbitnya buku metode Bukumusikku pada tahun 2020 yang menggunakan warna dalam notasinya merupakan salah satu upaya untuk mengatasi kejenuhan yang dialami oleh anak-anak usia prasekolah dalam pembelajaran piano dasar. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis fungsi notasi berwarna dalam sebuah pembelajaran piano dasar pada anak usia prasekolah. Metode yang digunakan merupakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa wawancara pada guru-guru di seluruh Indonesia yang telah memakai Bukumusikku selama lebih dari satu tahun, observasi di Jogja Music School dan Vocaganza, serta dokumentasi. Analisis data menggunakan model analisis Miles dan Huberman. Hasil yang didapat adalah warna berfungsi sebagai sarana dalam meningkatkan minat dan pemahaman anak dalam membaca notasi balok pada pembelajaran piano dasar. Warna dalam sebuah notasi juga membantu memudahkan anak untuk berlatih instrumennya secara mandiri, walaupun pemahaman secara menyeluruh terhadap keterampilan dasar bermain piano tidak bergantung pada notasi berwarna melainkan proses pembelajaran yang diterapkan oleh guru.

Abstract

This study explores the symbolic meanings embedded in the lyrics of Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin through the lens of Roland Barthes' semiotic theory. The song was selected due to its rich symbolism and the profound philosophical messages conveyed through both its lyrical content and musical structure. The primary aim of this research is to uncover how Led Zeppelin constructs and conveys their artistic identity through symbolic elements that engage with themes of spirituality, existentialism, and critiques of materialistic culture. Employing a qualitative research method with a descriptive-interpretative design, this study draws data from official lyric documentation, musical references, and media archives. The analysis focuses on three layers of meaning in the lyrics: (1) denotation as literal meaning, (2) connotation as emotional and cultural significance, and (3) myth as an ideological narrative. The findings reveal that the symbol of the "stairway to heaven" functions as a critique of consumerism; the crossroads symbolize existential freedom; and natural imagery evokes a sense of spiritual connection to the natural world. Together, these symbols construct a modern myth that demonstrates how Led Zeppelin not only produced music but also engaged in cultural storytelling that is both philosophical and introspective. The song ultimately reflects the bands identity as an artistic entity that transcends entertainment, inviting listeners to contemplate lifes deeper meanings through metaphor and symbolic representation.
