Kacapi is a zither-like Sundanese musical instrument played as the main accompanying instrument in the <i>Tembang Sunda</i> (Sundanese Song), <i>Kacapi Suling</i>, recitation of <i>Cerita Pantun</i> (versified stories) or an additional instrument in <i>Gamelan Degung </i>performance.<br />
<br />
The word <i>kacapi</i> in Sundanese also refers to santol tree, from which the zither instrument was believed to be originally made.<br />

<br />
<i>Tanah Air</i> (literally: Land Water) is one of the names with which we, Indonesians, call our beloved country. This reflects our understanding that our country is an archipelagic nation, one that consists of thousands of islands and a number of different seas. With more than 17,500 islands and stretching over three time zones, it is arguably the largest archipelagic nation in the world.<br />
<br />
The following is the lyric of the song whose video is posted here. The song was composed by Ibu Soed and entitled "Tanah Airku" (My Country). The English translation is mine.<br />
<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Tanah air ku tidak kulupakan <br />
<i>(My country I do not forget)</i><br />
Kan terkenang selama hidupku <br />
<i>([I] will always remember you all my life)</i><br />
Biarpun saya pergi jauh <br />
<i>(No matter how far I go)</i><br />
Tidakkan hilang dari kalbu <br />
<i>(You will never fade from my heart)</i><br />
Tanah ku yang kucintai <br />
<i>(My beloved land)</i><br />
Engkau kuhargai <br />
<i>(I revere you)</i><br />
Walaupun banyak negeri kujalani <br />
<i>(No matter how many lands I have traveled)</i><br />
yang mahsyur permai dikata orang <br />
<i>(glorious and scenic people say)</i><br />
Tetapi kampung dan rumahku <br />
<i>(But my country and home)</i><br />
Disanalah ku merasa senang <br />
<i>(It is there that I find happiness)</i><br />
Tanahku tak kulupakan <br />
<i>(My land I do not forget)</i><br />
Engkau kubanggakan <br />
<i>(You are my pride)</i><br />
<br />
Tanah airku tidak kulupakan <br />
<i>(My country I do not forget)</i><br />
Kan terkenang selama hidupku <br />
<i>([I] will always remember you all my life)</i><br />
Biarpun saya pergi jauh <br />
<i>(No matter how far I go)</i><br />
Tidakkan hilang dari kalbu <br />
<i>(You will never fade from my heart)</i><br />
Tanah ku yang kucintai <br />
<i>(My beloved land)</i><br />
Engkau kuhargai <br />
<i>(I revere you)</i></blockquote>Ekihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17128624439430370669noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7901079592204318276.post-6556288809879468172011-12-31T22:10:00.000+07:002011-12-31T22:10:28.001+07:00Zamrud Khatulistiwa (The Emerald of The Equator)This is an Indonesian song entitled Zamrud Khatulistiwa (The Emerald of The Equator) by Chrisye, a famous Indonesian singer. I like the song because it has some touch of Indonesian ethnic music in its composition. The video is also nice.<br />

It is a dynamic group dance with highly coordinated choreography.<br /><br />In this 30 second video clip, you will see more than 600 students and faculty members of The School of Language and Art Education of the Indonesia University of Education in Bandung practice the dance in their attempt to break the Indonesian record of the most numerous dancers performing the Saman dance. The current records was made on July 8, 2008, when 600 dancers performed this dance in Gelora Bung Karno Jakarta at the occasion of the celebration of the 100th anniversary of Indonesia's national awakening.<br /><br />Enjoy the video, and don't forget to check out Bandung Daily Video's elder sister, <a href="http://bandungdailyphoto.com/">Bandung Daily Photo</a> for photos and stories about Bandung.Ekihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17128624439430370669noreply@blogger.com4
