Abstract

Innovation in traditional arts often triggers polemics between conservative and progressive values. This study offers a dialectical model of innovation-response in traditional arts by using Tembang Sunda Cianjuran as a case study to integrate Lewis A. Coser’s functional conflict theory. Employing a qualitative methodology that combines case study and autoethnography, data were gathered through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentary analysis. This multi-method approach allowed for a comprehensive understanding of both the artistic negotiation process and the underlying community dynamics. The research found that (1) the innovation of "Nyiar Luang Tina Cianjuran" successfully addressed contemporary social issues without eliminating core aesthetic rules such as dongkari, laras (tuning), wanda (style), song, and lyrics; (2) thematic modernisation and multimedia integration significantly enhance the appeal to the younger generation; and (3) the conflict between conservatism and progressivism, when managed effectively, can foster internal cohesion and create harmony within traditional arts. This research concludes that responsible innovation can enrich cultural relevance without compromising traditional values.

Abstract

Kajian ini mengeksplorasi Kuring Leungiteun , sebuah lagu tradisional Sunda, sebagai media advokasi ekologis melalui dimensi musikal, puitis, dan kulturalnya. Dengan menggunakan desain studi kasus instrumental kualitatif, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana arsitektur komposisi—khususnya melodi, ritme, laras, tempo, dinamika, dan ornamen vokal—mewujudkan dan memperkuat duka ekologis dan perpindahan spiritual. Analisis ini mengacu pada teori fungsi musik Merriam, ekokritik sastra, teori glokalisasi, dan prinsip kosmologi Sunda Tri  Tangtu di Buana , sebuah triad kosmologi Sunda yang melambangkan harmoni antara manusia, alam, dan Tuhan. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi lapangan, analisis audiovisual, dan studi musikologi dari berbagai adaptasi dari tahun 1989 hingga 2018. Temuan ini mengungkapkan bahwa Kuring Leungiteun bukan sekadar artefak budaya, melainkan narasi sonik yang digarap secara sadar: penggunaan laras madenda membangkitkan melankolis sakral, sementara tempo lambat, kendali dinamis, dan ornamen mikrotonal mengekspresikan trauma ekologis kolektif. Transformasi lagu ini lintas genre, mulai dari Celempungan hingga pop Sunda, menggambarkan kemampuan adaptasi glokal dan relevansi sosialnya yang abadi. Studi ini menegaskan bahwa musik tradisional dapat berfungsi sebagai platform penting bagi etika lingkungan, transmisi memori, dan keterlibatan publik sejalan dengan kerangka kerja global seperti SDG 13 dan 15. Studi ini merekomendasikan revitalisasi strategis bentuk-bentuk musik tradisional sebagai media partisipatif untuk keberlanjutan budaya dan kesadaran ekologis.

Abstract

This study develops a conceptual framework to define a distinguished panembang (vocalist) in Tembang Sunda Cianjuran based on a case study of the PTSC DAMAS competition. Employing a qualitative research design, the study integrates triangulation methods data, techniques, and sources to enhance validity. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with 12 key informants (including judges, panembang, and cultural experts), field observations, and document analysis. The analytical framework is based on A.A.M. Djelantik's aesthetic theory and uses Miles and Huberman's interactive model for data analysis. The study identifies five core parameters: Bener (accuracy), Merenah (proportionality), Genah (melodiousness), Alus (artistic refinement), and Mulus (flawless integration), each with context-specific indicators. These findings offer a culturally grounded yet methodologically rigorous model for evaluating performance quality in traditional Sundanese vocal arts. The proposed parameters offer a foundational step toward developing a more objective, transparent, and accountable judging system.

Abstract

This study investiges the strategies for acquiring vocal competence in tembang sunda cianjuran through a comparative approach to two prominent panembang: Yus Wiradiredja and Neneng Dinar. Addressing the limited research that explores the learning trajectories of panembang in depth, this study employs Brinner’s theoretical framework on the stages of acquiring musical competence as the primary analytical tool. The findings indicate that while Yus followed an ideal learning path aligned with Brinner’s stages—establishing himself as a multitalented panembang with exceptional and wide-ranging musical sensitivity—Neneng also attained a high level of competence through perseverance and strong personal commitment. These results highlight the vital role of experience and consistency in shaping musical competence. The study recommends the development of panembang training models grounded in integrated technical, cultural, and reflective approaches.

Abstract

Kampung Adat Dukuh is a traditional village that maintains its ancestors’ traditions and cultural values, especially from Islamic teachings. This traditional village receives regular visits from pilgrims every Saturday. Continuous visits by outsiders to this area have given rise to various potential socio-cultural vulnerabilities among the indigenous community. Therefore, an effort is needed to manage the visits of these pilgrims as a potential for well-managed religious tourism that can control the boundaries that maintain the sustainability and comfort of the lives of indigenous people. One of them is developing a digital platform to promote the richness of the traditions and culture of Dukuh Village while maintaining its values by properly documenting them following the etiquette in Dukuh Village. This article aims to see the changes and potential for empowering Dukuh Village as a religious tourism destination and disseminating information about its cultural practices through digital platforms. By using qualitative methods and developing the PAR (Participatory Action Research) method combined with ethnographic work, this study pays attention to community involvement in this empowerment. The study results show that the young generation of Kampung Dukuh has a solid ability to adapt and learn by making the digital platform a space for expression and maintaining the values of the wisdom of Kampung Dukuh by presenting accurate information using an insider perspective.

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of digital literacy in revitalizing the Perang Tomat (Tomato War) tradition in Cikareumbi Village during the post-pandemic period. The program employed a Participatory Action Research (PAR) methodology, engaging artists, youth, and community elders in training on digital content related to cultural branding and creative media production. Participants were trained to create cultural content with smartphones, manage social media accounts, and reinterpret digital platforms as instruments for cultural representation. Empirical evidence indicates notable enhancements in the digital capacity of the community. The Instagram insights for the newly established “Mekar Budaya Lembang” account indicate 3,299 views and 128 interactions over the course of one month, with 61.3% of viewers classified as non-followers. Furthermore, 85% of participants demonstrated proficiency in content creation, 78% acquired skills for independent media management, and 60% grasped the principles of cultural branding. The findings indicate that digital literacy enables individuals to narrate stories within their communities and enhances the visibility of Perang Tomat beyond its local context. The study concludes that digital literacy serves as both a technical skill and a cultural strategy, enhancing community agency and promoting cultural sustainability. This model of community-based digital empowerment provides a replicable framework for the promotion of intangible heritage in digitally mediated contexts.

Abstract

This study examines the aesthetics of Tembang Sunda Cianjuran as a relational vocal–instrumental performance system shaped through reciprocal interaction between panembang (vocalists) and pamirig (instrumental accompanists) within the principal Cianjur–Bandung lineage. Previous scholarship has largely emphasized vocal technique and performer excellence, while the broader relational, instrumental, and integrative dimensions of Cianjuran aesthetics have remained insufficiently theorized. This research aims to formulate an integrative aesthetic framework grounded in the concept of dongkari as Cianjuran’s foundational normative principle, encompassing dongkari haleuang (vocal formation), dongkari lagu (melodic structure and ornamentation), and dongkari pirigan (instrumental relationality). Employing an interpretative qualitative design with an emic, practice-based methodology, the study draws upon more than five decades of embodied practitioner experience, intergenerational in-depth interviews with leading vocal and instrumental tradition bearers, and critical literature analysis. Data were interpreted through an adaptive operationalization of A.A.M. Djelantik’s aesthetic theory of form, content, and presentation, recontextualized according to the indigenous performance logic of Cianjuran. The findings reveal that Tembang Sunda Cianjuran aesthetics are fundamentally relational, proportional, and affectively regulated rather than virtuosity-centered, synthesized through kesepakatan perasaan (shared affective agreement) as the central aesthetic mechanism governing real-time musical coherence. The study contributes methodologically by demonstrating the value of integrating embodied emic inquiry into musicological analysis, and theoretically by positioning kesepakatan perasaan as an indigenous framework that enriches broader debates on relational aesthetics, intersubjective musical attunement, and cross-cultural performance studies.
