Creative Musical Work "Galuik Balam" in the Aesthetic Context of Minangkabau Traditional Music
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aims to develop a model for creating intertextual musical art through a combination of several texts in the form of compositions connected to the songs Anak balam and Balam-balam in Minangkabau, developing creative alternatives in processing musical elements in Minangkabau social events. This research method includes concept development and concept realization methods, namely exploring the essence of Balam-balam and Anak balam, creating a musical dialogue, choosing the right instruments, building music based on the magical atmosphere of Anak balam, combining traditional and non-traditional instruments, creating dramatic elements, builds the three parts of the work, weaves the theme of each part, balances the timbre, and determines the title of each part. The research results show that the phenomena of Balam-balam and Anak balam create three interrelated parts, namely Romance, Loyalty, and Sacred. Each of these sections has several subsections that describe these themes. The romance section consists of four sub-sections, the loyalty section consists of one section, and the sacred section consists of one section. This musical work depicts harmony and affection through the use of various traditional, modern, and non-musical instruments, as well as vocals that alternate and complement each other. Through the work Galuik balam, it was found that the combination of traditional Minangkabau musical elements with the natural elements of the sound of the balam bird and the development of new musical forms can increase the understanding of Minangkabau cultural aesthetics and make a significant contribution to the development of traditional musical arts in Indonesia.
