Gambang Kromong Irama Bersatu - "Pobin Poa Si Li Tan" [Official Audio]

Description

Listen to the official audio of "Pobin Poa Si Li Tan" sung by Masnah, from the 1991 album 'Music of Indonesia, Vol. 3: Music from the Outskirts of Jakarta: Gambang Kromong' on Smithsonian Folkways. The song is a story of Tang Dynasty China, sung in pantun, concerting Li Tan, a child-prince who later became Emperor Rui Zong (r. 707-712). 'Music of Indonesia, Vol. 3: Music from the Outskirts of Jakarta: Gambang Kromong' is available as CD and digital.

Both performers and audience for this music today live at the edges of Jakarta and in the towns and semi-rural areas beyond. The music is wonderfully disorienting. It combines Indonesian, Chinese, and sometimes European-derived instruments in musical styles, at times reminiscent of gamelan music and at other times recalls small-group jazz of the 1920s and 1930s.
