Abstract

Pertumbuhan pesat teknologi digital telah secara signifikan mengubah pendidikan musik, khususnya dalam pembelajaran drum, dengan menyediakan sumber belajar yang interaktif dan fleksibel. Penelitian ini mengkaji persepsi siswa sekolah dasar dan sekolah menengah pertama terhadap penggunaan YouTube, LALAL.AI, dan Pro Metronome dalam mendukung latihan drum. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus deskriptif kualitatif, sebanyak 16 siswa berusia 10–14 tahun di Favore Music dipilih secara purposif. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara semi-terstruktur, observasi, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman yang didukung triangulasi. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa YouTube membantu memvisualisasikan teknik dasar drum, LALAL.AI meningkatkan ketepatan ritmis melalui isolasi suara instrumen, dan Pro Metronome memperkuat konsistensi tempo. Integrasi ketiga alat tersebut memperkaya perkembangan teknis, kognitif, dan motivasional siswa. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi terhadap wacana literasi digital dalam pendidikan musik dengan menunjukkan nilai pedagogis dari kombinasi aplikasi berbasis video, kecerdasan buatan, dan metronom dalam pembelajaran drum tingkat awal.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the ripple vocal ornamentation technique in the "Ciawian" kepesinden composition as a manifestation of conventional vocal art in Sundanese gamelan music. Ripple vocal ornamentation is a unique sound decoration and is a distinctive characteristic that distinguishes the Sundanese vocal tradition from other cultural vocal systems. Research method: The research approach applied is a qualitative descriptive methodology with an ethnomusicological perspective, including direct observation, intensive dialogue with gamelan artists, and a study of audio-visual materials for the "Ciawian" kepesinden performance. Results and discussion: The study findings indicate that the ripple vocal ornamentation in the "Ciawian" composition displays a characteristic in the form of soft and directed sound vibrations, which act as melodic decoration to beautify musical expressions. This ornamentation is implemented in specific segments in the song structure, especially at the end of the melodic sentence and parts that require emotional accentuation. Mastering ripple ornamentation requires consistent practice and a deep appreciation of Sundanese musical aesthetics, coupled with the skill of controlling the breathing system and adequate vocal resonance. Implication: This research contributes to the efforts of documenting and conserving traditional Sundanese vocal ornamentation, especially in the realm of kepesinden which is an important element of Sundanese karawitan. The results of this study can be used as a reference for artists, art teachers, and academics who are interested in the development of traditional Indonesian vocal techniques.

Abstract

The drill method has long been employed in music education, yet its pedagogical relevance remains debated due to its association with mechanical repetition and limited musical meaning. This study aims to re-examine the role of the drill method in music learning by synthesising pedagogical perspectives, instructional practices, and reported learning outcomes within existing scholarly literature. A qualitative literature review design was employed, involving systematic database searching, study selection based on predefined inclusion criteria, and thematic analysis of selected studies. Data were analysed using a structured analytical framework through coding, categorisation, and cross-study comparison to identify recurring pedagogical patterns and reported learning outcomes. The reviewed studies indicate that drill-based practice consistently supports technical stability, musical accuracy, notation literacy, and performance consistency across diverse educational contexts. However, its effectiveness is strongly dependent on instructional design and pedagogical integration. Drill contributes to meaningful musical development when aligned with clear objectives, guided feedback, and interpretative engagement, but becomes limited when applied as isolated repetition. This study positions drill as a foundational pedagogical strategy that supports progressive musical learning rather than as a purely mechanical method.

Abstract

This study investigates the enhancement of self-efficacy among non-music specialist primary school teachers in Indonesia through a targeted training program. Many primary educators, particularly those without formal music training, often lack confidence in their musical abilities, which limits their willingness to teach music. Using an action research design, the program was implemented in three stages—pre-action, action, and post-action—aimed at improving teachers’ competence and confidence in music instruction. Twenty-eight teachers from Sumedang Regency, West Java, participated, representing diverse demographics in certification status, age, employment type, teaching grade level, and years of experience. The training included workshops, collaborative reflections, teaching simulations, and practical sessions on integrating music into classroom activities. Quantitative data from pre- and post-tests, along with qualitative observation notes, revealed significant gains in all self-efficacy dimensions, with the overall mean score increasing from 3.3 to 4.3 (p 0.001) and a very large effect size (d = 2.5). Notable improvements were observed in developing higher-order thinking skills, assessing students’ understanding of music, and fostering the value of music learning. The findings underscore the importance of sustained, practice-based professional development to build teacher confidence, promote innovative pedagogy, and integrate music meaningfully into primary curricula. This research highlights the necessity of equipping non-specialist teachers with pedagogical strategies and personal empowerment to strengthen music education frameworks and improve student learning experiences in primary schools.

Abstract

This study addresses the limited attention given to independent practice in primary music education by examining how young students structure drum practice beyond direct instruction in a non-formal setting. A qualitative design was employed involving four students aged seven to nine, using participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis during thirty-minute sessions. Inductive thematic analysis revealed that students consistently initiated practice by revisiting previously learned 4/4 grooves, using prior material as a structural anchor. Despite tempo instability and coordination challenges between the hi-hat and bass drum, students maintained rhythmic coherence while negotiating motor demands. Problem-solving was predominantly global, relying on whole-pattern repetition rather than segmentation. Practice organization emerged implicitly, progressing from hi-hat stabilization toward full groove integration. These findings highlight early-stage self-structured practice behaviors and extend understanding of independent practice in drum learning. However, the small sample and single-context design limit generalizability. Future research should involve larger samples and longitudinal approaches to examine developmental progression in practice strategies.

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.
