What is Music?

0 komentar


In this paper, the author will discuss about the meaning of music, because according to the author this is so important to be discussed. This is a very intriguing writer when watching shows in Bandung in order to test co-author S2 majoring in Art Creation ISI Solo indonesian. Then the author took to discuss with the students at the end of the show in discussion forum. He said "ah, my ears can not accept this music, where melody, where the rhythm, the sound is like an irregular, the music is not related to sound, melody and rhythm irregular? was not uniformly wealthy yes sir, what is dong music?

The first task of the writer to question is to explain what is music? So that students can understand the meaning of the music itself and not until he had a narrow view of the meaning of the music.

In principle we need to know and explain the nature of the music itself. The most familiar thing to begin to assume the music is the sound, there is more to argue that the phenomenon is called the human relationship with the music. For a second opinion is certainly necessary to our understanding of human phenomena such as what might be called music.

Let us ask ourselves, is there a sense of where music is the human activity? Logical answer "yes lah yes", without any form of human activity, there can be no sound musical or musical works are created. In short, what is music, is essentially a human activity. Well, then, when we eat is the music, when we got trip is music, when we shower is music, really?

In the case of my colleagues performance, or any musical product that comes from the mind, what present by more than mere musical product, or a mere composition, or a mere improvisation, or a mere show. Present But what is the result of a human activity that has a specific purpose. This means that music is not just a collection of products or objects, but in this case is more seen as a symbol, emblem, namely "to say something about something", so the music face to face with the meaning and message for to fed. Meaning and message can be influenced by the context when people work, whether it is the purpose, audience and so on.

People named Hyden do something that is creating a concerto. What he did was to create something in the context of time, place and type of musical works at that time. In the case of co-author performance, he did something. What he did was to create, compose, perform, improvise, and record something in the context of time, place and type of other musical works. Lots of various musical situations in which the two composers in the act of creating his work.

If music is essentially a form of human activity that has a specific purpose, at least the music includes three components namely, composer, musical products they produce, and the activity in which the composer makes musical products. But according to all three authors is not complete, as well as "making don't use chilli". Composer to make something (music), are in a specific context. This means that when the composer out of ideas, will be influenced by a particular context, as mentioned above, can be seen from the purpose, audience, place or time.

Examples of cases, when a composer to create musical works of musical instruments gongs. To ring the gong, struck in accordance with certain norms, but the composer ring swiped by being beaten with stones and even rolled like a tire that will be transported into the truck. Of course what the composer is the crazy thing is not it? Of course not, if associated with the context described earlier. This means that the composer has a purpose, know who the audience or the audience, to know where the place and time.

From these explanations, the music eventually include four components, namely
1) composer,
2) the process of making work,
3) the work, and
4) the context in which the composer to make something.

Well, the four components of the approach above, co-author of a work:
1) the result of a systematic musical experience, meaning that the musical experience Iwan influenced by musical stages, whether it is from learning, watching, listening, or the advice of mentors,
2) the activities that are motivated in making the work,
3) the activities that have a specific purpose,
4) activities that are influenced by the context in which Jasmine makes her music work.

He was influenced by the context of why and how the listener / audience (including himself) listen to what he created. Instead, the listener / audience is influenced by the why, what and how to do what the composer has created. So that my colleagues had not necessarily make his work for performance in studio marriage or circumcision celebration. Yes, the context for the work he's only those who have more understanding than just music.

Again with a different songwriter "cat robber", the context in which he addressed the crowd for that when performed in a celebration. ya pas alone. But if the co-author of the work performed in the celebration, many people will not understand as well as student opinions before, it sounds not bad, not irregular, or if not good sunda people say "euweuh kunaon gawe jelema tea".

Now, at last of this paper can be concluded that, music is not only sound, the music is not only melody, the music is not just a regular rhythm, but the music is the result of human activity through the processing of sound as a medium of expression that fits the context.
