Abstract

Taur-taur, as a form of vocal art expression of the Simalungun community holding a cultural richness that needs to be preserved. The main focus of this research is on five types of taur-taur, namely Taur taur bahtonang, taur taur simbandar, taur taur Balok ganjang, Taur taur urdo-urdo, and Taur taur tangis-tangis. Each type of taur-taur has unique characteristics whether in terms of melody, lyrics, or social functions within the Simalungun community. Through a qualitative approach, this study finds that taur-taur has distinctive features that set it apart from other forms of folk singing. Musical analysis using Crishty's theory and Merriam's ethnomusicology theory provides a deeper understanding of the vocal techniques and symbolic meanings contained within taur-taur. This research concludes that the preservation of taur-taur is crucial for maintaining Indonesia's cultural diversity. One of the preservation efforts that can be undertaken is to introduce taur-taur to the younger generation through music education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze changes in the implementation of the Sayur Matua death ceremony in the Simalungun community in Saribu Dolok Village, Silimakuta District, Simalungun Regency. The method used is a qualitative approach with an in-depth interview technique with one key informant, namely Mr. Simarmata, a community leader who understands local traditions. The results of the study show that the implementation of the Sayur Matua ceremony has undergone various changes, both in terms of structure, symbols, and meaning. These changes are influenced by several main factors, including modernization, the entry of foreign culture, and shifts in social values among the younger generation. Traditional elements such as Gonrang Sipitu-pitu are still retained, although in a simpler form and not as complete as before. These findings show that there is a dynamic between cultural preservation and the need to adapt to the times. This research is expected to be a contribution to the study of local culture, as well as a consideration in efforts to preserve intangible cultural heritage, especially in the context of the Simalungun indigenous people.

Abstract

Musik dalam tradisi kepercayaan Batak Toba tidak sekadar berfungsi sebagai estetika hiburan, melainkan sebagai teknologi spiritual yang memetakan tatanan alam semesta. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis simbolisme kosmologis dalam ensambel Gondang Sapotang yang digunakan pada ritual Ulaon Gondang Saborginoleh komunitas Parbaringin Isumbaon di Desa Lobu Rappa, Kabupaten Asahan. Menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan etnomusikologi, penelitian ini membedah struktur organologi dan pola musikal berdasarkan konsep "Trilogi Banua" (Tiga Dunia). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Gondang Sapotang berfungsi sebagai "kosmogram bunyi" yang merepresentasikan struktur mikrokosmos dan makrokosmos. Secara spesifik, bunyi Ogung yang siklis merepresentasikan Banua Toru (Dunia Bawah) sebagai fondasi bumi, ritme Tagading merepresentasikan dinamika Banua Tonga (Dunia Tengah/Manusia), dan melodi Sarunemerepresentasikan suara Banua Ginjang (Dunia Atas/Ilahi). Selain itu, ditemukan adanya eskalasi tempo (accelerando) dalam repertoar yang menyimbolkan pendakian spiritual untuk mencapai transendensi. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa bagi penganut Parbaringin, memainkan musik adalah upaya merawat keseimbangan kosmis dan harmonisasi hubungan antara manusia, alam, dan pencipta.

Abstract

This research discusses the use of the Tambua musical instrument in the Baralek ceremony (Minangkabau traditional wedding) held in Hamparan Perak, Deli Serdang. The study focuses on the presentation form, function, and symbolic meaning of the Tambua music within the context of the ritual. The approach used is qualitative descriptive ethnomusicology, with data collection through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The key informants are members of Sanggar Tuah Sakato Medan, who are actively preserving Minangkabau musical practices in the migrant area (perantauan). The results show that the Tambua is presented as an ensemble (along with Tansa, Gandang, Talempong, and Bansi), with a dynamic musical structure that is integrated with every stage of the Baralek procession. The Tambua plays a role as the accompaniment for the traditional procession, a builder of the sacred atmosphere, and a medium for symbolic communication. The embedded symbolic meanings reflect core Minangkabau cultural values, such as mutual cooperation (gotong royong) and kinship ties. It can be concluded that the use of the Tambua in Baralek not only functions as an artistic expression but is also a marker of cultural identity as well as a vital medium for the preservation of Minangkabau tradition in the migrant land.

Abstract

This study examines the meaning of pantun texts in the song Tanjung Katung performed by Orkes Melayu Lebah Begantong. It aims to identify and analyze denotative and connotative meanings and to understand their function in performance contexts. The study employs a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach using observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis is based on Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotic theory. The findings reveal that denotatively, pantun depict daily life, nature, and social situations, while connotatively, they express symbolic meanings such as gratitude, respect, humor, and social interaction. The improvisational delivery makes meanings dynamic and context-dependent. Thus, pantun functions not only as aesthetic elements but also as a medium of social communication, reflecting Malay cultural values.

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.
