Cultural Transmission through Dance: Teaching Endeng-Endeng in SMPN 1 Rantau Selatan
type: item
description: Endeng-endeng is a traditional Mandailing dance that encapsulates cultural diversity and local wisdom, serving as a medium through which traditional values are sustained amid modern societal shifts. This study investigates the embodiment of local wisdom in the instruction of Endeng-endeng dance among ninth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Rantau Selatan. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were gathered through observation, interviews, and document analysis. Local wisdom in the Mandailing community is reflected in social values, norms, and kinship systems, which are integrated into traditional expressions such as dance. These elements function as intangible cultural assets, reinforcing identity and guiding social behavior. The educational setting is positioned as a critical space for cultural transmission, enabling students to internalize and reproduce these values. Findings indicate that the Endeng-endeng dance is an effective pedagogical tool for instilling moral and social norms, including politeness, communal living, and life guidance. Its integration into formal education supports the preservation of Mandailing cultural heritage and enhances students’ understanding of indigenous knowledge systems. Thus, dance education serves not only as artistic instruction but also as a conduit for intergenerational knowledge transfer and the reinforcement of local identity.

Preservation Efforts of Riau Malay Dance through Persembahan Dance Game
type: item
description: Persembahan Dance is a traditional Malay dance of Riau, possessing high cultural significance as a dance to welcome honored guests and is an integral component of Riau Malay cultural heritage. However, with the progression of time and globalization, there is a risk if the preservation of Persembahan Dance is not undertaken. This research aims to analyze the preservation efforts of Persembahan Dance through the development of an engaging game application for young generations. The research methodology employed is descriptive analysis with a qualitative approach, encompassing observation, interviews, and documentation. This study also identifies the preservation efforts made by the government, educational institutions, artists, and art studios. The government supports preservation by patenting Persembahan Dance as part of the regional cultural heritage and incorporating it into official events. Educational institutions integrate Persembahan Dance into the Cultural Arts curriculum and extracurricular activities for young generations. Artists and art studios contribute through education and cultural promotion both nationally and internationally. Conversely, the development of Persembahan Dance through educational games using the Game Development Life Cycle (GDLC) method creates an innovation that can attract young people's interest in learning and appreciating traditional dance while preserving cultural values. This study is expected to provide a significant contribution to the preservation of Riau Malay art and promote public awareness of the importance of maintaining cultural heritage.

Gender Aesthetics and Symbolic Tension in Syofyani’s Pasambahan Dance: Negotiating Honor, Hospitality, and Cultural Identity
type: item
description: This study critically examines the movement techniques and body postures in Syofyani’s Pasambahan Dance by exploring how the values of honor and hospitality are constructed, performed, and negotiated within the Minangkabau cultural context. Rather than assuming harmony between movement and cultural values as fixed, this study questions how gender construction and bodily symbolism in dance operate within a matrilineal society that paradoxically privileges masculine roles in public performance spaces. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and visual documentation at the Syofyani Dance Studio in Padang, West Sumatra. The researcher was present not only as an external observer but also as a limited participant in rehearsals and artistic discussions, in order to understand the meaning-making process through the body and movement.Findings show that male dancers' movement techniques, derived from pencak silat, exhibit protective, dominant, and assertive traits, while female dancers express gentleness and deference through movements inspired by silat bunga. However, a critical reading reveals that this gender division does not necessarily reflect Minangkabau gender reality but rather represents a symbolic negotiation that evolves with changing social dynamics and modern aesthetic expectations. Furthermore, symbols such as the carano and betel leaves are not always received with a singular meaning. Younger dancers, especially those living in urban areas, interpret these symbols as formalities or even folklorization, rather than as expressions of spirituality. When the dance is performed at tourism events or modern receptions, its meaning shifts from a ritual of respect to a visual attraction. This study affirms that Pasambahan Dance is not merely an aesthetic medium but also a discursive arena where values, identities, and ideologies are negotiated. By combining dance analysis and pe…

The Existence of Totokng Dance as the Cultural Identity of the Dayak Salako Tribe
type: item
description: This study aims to examine the existence of the Totokng dance in the Nurutni’ Ceremony as a representation of the cultural identity of the Dayak Salako community in West Kalimantan. The dance functions not only as a performative expression but also as a medium of spiritual communication that connects humans, ancestors, nature, and God (Jubato). This research adopts a qualitative descriptive approach, using participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and field documentation in Pelanjau Hamlet, the central site of the ceremony. The findings show that the Totokng dance is a sacred ritual passed down vertically through the ancestral lineage of the Panglima Kayau. The structure of the performance consists of preparation, main performance, and post-ritual stages, with strong symbolism reflected in the movements, music, costumes, and offerings. The dance embodies cosmological and spiritual values, turning the dancer’s body into a living archive of collective memory. The shift in the function of the dance from a symbol of power to a ritual of gratitude for the harvest illustrates the adaptive capacity of local culture in facing social change. The process of intergenerational transmission through direct ritual experience strengthens the preservation of its meaning. In conclusion, the Totokng dance not only maintains ancestral traditions but also acts as a cultural instrument that reinforces the identity and resistance of the Dayak Salako community in the face of global cultural homogenization.

Gender Symbolism in Sampur and Samparan of Surakarta-Style Javanese Dance Costume Design
type: item
description: Sampur and samparan are essential elements in the costume design of Surakarta-style female dance, serving as primary visual markers that distinguish the aesthetic characteristics of this dance style. Their presence extends beyond mere costume design in court dances such as bedhaya and srimpi; they also function as properties that must be animated by the dancer to harmonize with the movement patterns employed. This study aims to describe the form, meaning, and characteristics of sampur and samparan in the costume design of Surakarta-style female dance and to analyze their significance in the cultural expression of Javanese society. The research employs an ethnocoreological approach with qualitative methods. Primary data were obtained through participatory observation, in which the researcher was directly involved as a Javanese dancer. The findings reveal that sampur and samparan not only enhance the expressive quality of dance movements through distinctive accentuations but also reflect the cultural values and identity of Javanese society. Specifically, samparan is exclusively used in female dances due to its association with the ideal concept of womanhood in Javanese culture. Thus, sampur and samparan function not only in the visual and technical aspects of performance but also as symbolic elements that reinforce the identity of Javanese dance as an art form rich in philosophical and cultural meanings.

Social Construction of Dangdut Lamongan: Identity and Performance of Dangdut Lamongan
type: item
description: Lamongan has two different characteristics based on its territory, namely the North dominated by the culture of the Islamic Mataram Kingdom and Demak Kingdom, and South Parts dominated by Ancient Mataram culture. This cultural diversity has a significant impact on the development of dangdut music in Lamongan. This study was carried out to determine the characteristics of dangdut music in Lamongan based on the cultural backgrounds and the characteristics of the people in each region. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach with phenomenology and social construction methods. The results of this study show how public construction is formed through thought that produces a social construction. The social construction process of dangdut Lamongan music can be seen through three stages, namely internalization, objectification, and externalization. Internalization occurs when a culture are penetrated on dangdut music, adopted and becoming part of the social identity of society. The music not only represents entertainment but also cultural values and social norms lowered from generation to generation. Objektivication is visible in objective elements such as musical instruments, and stage performances which form the typical identity of the dangdut Lamongan. Musical instruments such as drum, suling and electronic musical elements in modern dangdut collaborate with traditional musical instruments. Finally, Externalization occurs when people create in accordance with the form of serving their respective regions. Through the three processes, dangdut music in Lamongan becomes a social space where people interact, communicate, and reinforce their cultural identity through music.

A Study of Listeners of the Song Haro Hara Songs from the Nyawöung Album (2000)
type: item
description: The research of Listeners' Study of Haro Hara Songs on Nyawöung 2000 Album aims to observe how listeners' experiences and interpretations of protest songs that emerged and developed during the armed conflict in Aceh in 2000-2003. The protest music that is the topic of this research refers to the category of songs created by local Acehnese musicians in the genre of regional pop and pop-authentic music with themes and lyrics inspired by several series of bloody events that have occurred in Aceh during the conflict, especially after the lifting of the status of the Military Operation Area (DOM) in 1998. Listener studies are the focus of this research as an effort to construct the memory, experience, and interpretation of listeners of these protest songs during the conflict and post-conflict period in Aceh. The method used in this research is a qualitative method using a phenomenological approach by emphasizing on extracting data related to the experiences and interpretations of listeners of protest songs by using data collection techniques using questionnaires to several listeners who became participants with three categories, namely: participants or listeners in the age group of generation X (born 1965-1980); age group of generation Y / Millennial (born 1981-1994); and participants or listeners in the age group of generation Z (born 1995-2010). This research uses framing analysis technique which consists of three frames of analysis to classify the interpretation of song listeners, namely, Diagnostic Framing, Prognostic Framing, Motivational Framing. The results of this study show that, participants who are listeners from the age group of generation X, generation Y, and generation Z stated that the song Haro Hara is a song that describes the state of Aceh during the GAM and RI conflict. The lyrics of the song are considered very straightforward with the interpretation classification of all respondents showing an average as diagnostic framing.

Fostering Musical Creativity with Digital Audio Workstations: An Action Research
type: item
description: The development of digital technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), has had a significant impact on education, including music learning. Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs) equipped with AI features offer opportunities to create more interactive and innovative learning. This study aims to explore the role of AI features in DAW as a creative learning medium in the extracurricular music of SMAN 8 Bandung, as well as provide new information on its impact on enhancing students' creativity. This study used a qualitative approach based on action research involving students participating in extracurricular music as research subjects. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis in the form of students' musical works. The data were analyzed using triangulation techniques to ensure the validity and reliability of the findings. The results showed that the use of AI features, such as automatic composition, sound processing, and harmony analysis, made it easier for students to understand musical concepts and encouraged them to create innovative works. In addition, the AI features helped students overcome technical obstacles, allowing them to focus more on the creative process. This results in increased student motivation and engagement in music learning. This study concludes that the integration of AI in DAW provides a great opportunity for educators to develop creative and relevant technology-based learning methods. As a recommendation, the implementation of this technology needs to be expanded and integrated with the curriculum to support learning in the digital era.

Citizen-Based Arts Festivals in North Sumatra: Obstacles, Solutions, and Social Impacts
type: item
description: This art study aims to reveal a new phenomenon of organizing art festivals based on community mutual cooperation or better known as citizen festivals. This study is based on the desire to produce a view and knowledge in seeing the challenges, solutions, and social impacts of citizen festivals. The study focuses on three citizen festivals representing three geocultural regions of North Sumatra, namely coastal, mountainous, and urban. The purpose of this study is to find the challenges faced by organizers in implementing Community-Based Art Festivals in North Sumatra and to reveal their solutions in facing these challenges, as well as to find the social impact of organizing Community-Based Art Festivals for the surrounding community. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach. The process of searching for data and information is carried out using interview, documentation, and literature study methods. The results of the study show that community-based festivals in coastal, mountainous, and urban areas have their own challenges. The Berhala Island marine culture festival on the Serdang Bedagai coast must deal with uncertain natural conditions. The Pancur Siwah Festival in the Karo mountains must grapple with religious ethics, the conservative attitude of the elders and the apathy of the younger generation. Meanwhile, the Jawa Deli Festival in Medan must be adaptive and collaborative with a multicultural social environment by facilitating various ethnicities. Some categories of impacts generated from these three types of festivals are cultural impacts, educational impacts, and economic impacts.

Pedagogical Strategies in Building Students' Dance Competence: A Case Study at SMAN 1 Rengel
type: item
description: This research aims to identify the strategies used in learning dance at SMAN 1 Rengel and reveal the learning difficulties that arise in implementing these strategies. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this research collects data through observation, interviews and documentation. The data analysis techniques used include data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions.

The Effectiveness of Digital Media in Teaching Orchestration: A Case Study of Sibelius
type: item
description: Orchestration is one of the theoretical courses conducted in 4th semester at the Music Study Programme, Faculty of Language and Arts, Universitas Negeri Surabaya. However, in its implementation there are still obstacles and problems. The ability of one student to another in orchestrating songs is very different. The inequality is shown when students work on assignments to orchestrate songs given by lecturers during the midterm and final exams. The work on the task obtained significantly different results. The obstacles and problems that exist in the orchestration lecture process cause a great influence on the development of student abilities. This research tries to present a treatment through learning tools in the form of sibelius software. This research is intended to test the effectiveness of learning tools in the form of Sibelius software in orchestration courses. The research method used is a quantitative method with the type of quasi experiment. The experimental design used in this study was pretest-posttest control group design. The results of the paired sample t test in the experimental group and control group at posttest with a significance value in the Sig column of 0.011 and 0.005. The significance value shows <0.05, so it can be said that there is a difference in the pretest results of the skills and knowledge of orchestrating student songs between the experimental group and the control group. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the skills and knowledge of orchestrating songs between students who are taught using a stave book and students who are taught using sibelius software in the Music Study Programme. Thus, the use of sibelius software in orchestration lectures is said to be effective. However, because this study used a quasi-experimental type, there are internal and external factors that affect the improvement of students' skills and knowledge in orchestrating songs, such as individual student motivation and musi…

Damma Silalahi and the Representation of Simalungun Culture in Contemporary Pop Music
type: item
description: This study examines Simalungun pop songs by Damma Silalahi, which have significantly influenced the development of popular music in Simalungun society. The main objectives of this study are to analyze the musical structure, uncover the textual meaning, and evaluate the social function of ten purposively selected songs. The study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical method. The analysis of musical structure is conducted using William P.

The main findings show that Damma Silalahi's songs combine modern style with traditional Simalungun musical roots. The lyrics express themes of love, social criticism, religiosity, and respect for parents. The social functions of these songs include expressive, educational, and recreational functions. Damma's works not only represent the dynamics of Simalungun culture but also reconstruct cultural identity within a contemporary framework. This study contributes new understanding of the transformation of regional music in a society experiencing modernization and globalization.

Staging Bali: The Transformation of Cultural Performance Through Disneyfication and Spectacle
type: item
description: This study explores the transformation of Balinese and Indonesian cultural performances through the processes of Disneyfication and spectacle, focusing on three popular case studies: the Kecak dance at Uluwatu Temple, the Devdan Show in Nusa Dua, and the Varuna Show at Bali Safari. Through comparative analysis and the integration of audience reviews, this research examines how traditional rituals are increasingly repackaged as theatrical entertainment designed to appeal to global tourists. The findings reveal a progressive shift from sacred, community-centered expressions to visually driven, commercially oriented performances. While these adaptations enhance the accessibility and visibility of Indonesian culture, they also raise critical questions about authenticity, commodification, and the loss of spiritual depth. The study argues that cultural performances are not only shaped by tradition but are continually reimagined through the dynamics of tourism, technology, and global consumer expectations. This evolution invites reflection on the broader implications of cultural tourism in shaping how heritage is presented, perceived, and preserved in contemporary society.

Ntak Awo Dance in the Social Life of the Kerinci Community
type: item
description: The Ntak Awo Dance is a traditional performing art originating from the Hamparan Rawang area, Sungai Penuh City, Jambi Province. Initially, this dance functioned as part of a traditional ritual, but over time it has undergone a transformation into an entertainment dance popularized by a local artist named Arwati. This article aims to describe the form, function, and cultural meaning of the Ntak Awo Dance as a representation of the identity of the Rawang community. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with an ethnographic approach through field observations, in-depth interviews, and literature studies. The results show that the Ntak Awo Dance is performed in various social events such as weddings, cultural festivals, community activities, and official state events. This dance is usually performed with energetic musical accompaniment, distinctive poetry or rhymes, and a "three-step" movement pattern that follows the rhythm of the music. The clothing used is polite everyday clothing, demonstrating the closeness between this art form and the daily lives of the community. In addition to being a medium of entertainment, the Ntak Awo Dance also functions as a means of preserving traditional values, a medium for cultural education, and a symbol of the collective identity of the Rawang community. Therefore, the Ntak Awo Dance not only needs to be preserved physically through performances, but also contextually through cultural education and strengthening local narratives in building regional cultural identity.
