Topic: Jaipongan


  
  archepelaGoWest Java
Jaipongan is an excellent example of the virility of the Indonesian people and their culture and the way in which cultural change takes place with a natural momentum.
As early as 1974 the word "jai-i-pong" was being used to entertain in performances by Ali Saban in the local Topeng Banjet group from the village of Karawang.
While it may be easy to criticize Jaipongan for being "commercial" its success boils down to popular taste.

  Javafred - Contemporary Indonesian art
Jaipongan is a social dance and is characterized by sensual and elegant movements, which are derived from a mixture of the banjet and serimpi dance forms, with elements of silat, Indonesian martial art.
This, combined with a rising religious fundamentalism, has led to a perception that jaipongan is a purely exploitative form of entertainment, with the sinden functioning as sexual objects for the lusty gazes of the bajidor.
Marga Selayu jaipongan group, which was the inspiration for the event, has held nightly performances under the flyover since 1990 and in Jakarta since the 1950's.

 Gugum Gumbira at AllExperts
Jaipongan, or Jaipong, was the most popular result of his study, derived from the updating of a village ritual music called ketuk tilu, with moves from Pencak Silat, the Indonesian martial art, and music from the masked theater dance, Topeng Banjet, and the Wayang Golek puppet theater.
In the original ketuk tilu, the group typically consists of the ketuk tilu pot-gong, other small gongs, a rebab (spike fiddle), barrel drums, and a female singer-dancer (ronggeng) who is often also a prostitute, who invites men to dance with her sensually.
The most widely available album of Jaipongan outside Indonesia is "Tonggeret", featuring singer Idjah Hadidjah and Gugum Gumbira's Jugala orchestra, released in 1987, and re-released as part of "WestJava: Sundanese Jaipong and other Popular Music", by Nonesuch Records under their Explorer Series label.

 indonesian music
Emerging from Sunda (West Java) in the 1970s, jaipongan has rapidly spread to other parts of Indonesia, riding the wave of a dance craze that can be arguably traced back to a decree by President Sukarno in the early Sixties that banned all ``foreign'' music including rock n' roll.
In jaipongan the gongs are tuned to a pentatonic scale, while the melody carried by the rebab and the vocalist are usually in a heptatonic scale.
It was hard to miss the irony when the authorities tried to crack down on jaipongan, offended by the ``overly sensuous'' nature of the dancing, which was based on an authentically traditional form--the government got what they asked for.

 Rock Paper Scissors - Nonesuch Explorer -- Indonesia - Press Release
Style(s): This recording exhibits a style called Jaipongan, which emerged in the late 1970s as the result of composer Gugum Gumbira Tirasondjaja’s effort to create a new form that emphasized indigenous arts (as opposed to foreign), and that could serve as a recreational form as well as a dance to be performed on stage.
Note: Jaipongan is unique in that it achieved popularity in the most modern and nationally minded of Indonesian cities while remaining thoroughly regional and traditional, showing little influence from the West.
The hybrid style draws from Ketuk Tilu (in which a professional female dancer and singer dances with men from the audience), Kliningan (whose instrumentation and formal structure were adopted in Jaipongan), and Topeng Banjet (a theater form whose contribution was a style of drumming).

Jaipongan is a newly designated Sundanese "traditional" form that incorporates elements of several other Indonesian forms of traditional dance theater, Sundanese gamelan styles, and even pancang silat, a traditional martial art, along with influences from Western rock and pop music.
Developed by Gugum Gumbira in the 1960s and 70s, it was for a time banned by the Indonesian government for being "immoral." Gugun soon thereafter founded the Jugala recording studio and the Jugalan Gamelan Orchestra, which in succeeding years rack up an impressive series of hits.

Dances such as the ketak tilu and provocative jaipongan were for the entertainment of the masses, whereas the more refined song poetry (tembang Sunda) and certain forms of gamelan were the preserve of the aristocracy.
These days the differences are fading as art forms follow social trends and feudal systems gradually disappear.

The latter style, adapted by renowned composer/choreographer Gugum Gumbira from the earlier, "disreputable," Ketuk Tilu tradition of Sundanese dance music, enjoyed immense popularity throughout Indonesia in the late 1970s and early 1980s, catapulting Idjah Hadidjah to national stardom.
Although jaipongan music shares instrumentation (gongs and metallophones) and certain formal similarities with Indonesia's better-known gamelan (ceremonial percussion orchestra) tradition, its forceful drumming and erotic overtones give it a much more contemporary sound.
The Kliningan and Celempungan selections, by contrast, are imbued with a dreamy, soft-focus quality, heightened by Hadidjah's richly ornamented vocalizing.
