The Malay gamelan (Malay: gamelan Melayu; Jawi: ݢاميلن ملايو) which exists today in Malaysia (particularly in Pahang, Terengganu and Johor) is basically from royal passed down through heritage. The Malay gamelan has developed an identity that is distinct from the Javanese, Balinese and Sundanesegamelan.
History
Joget Gamelan is one of the classical Malay dance. This classic dance was first performed at the Palace in the Johor in the 17th century. It was first performed in public in Pekan, Pahang in 1811 in the wedding ceremony of Tengku Hussain, the son of Sultan Abdul Rahman who ruled Lingga, with Wan Esah, the younger sister of Bendahara Ali from Pahang. It was first introduced in Terengganu after Tengku Mariam, a princess in Pahang, married Tengku Sulaiman, the prince to Tengku Zainal Abidin from Terengganu. In 1913, the Malay Gamelan tradition disappeared from the abolition of the Riau-Lingga Sultanate and later moved to Pahang, and until it spread to Terengganu. The Malay gamelan was first brought to Kuala Lumpur in 1969 in a public performance. Since then, it has become a part of the Malaysian arts and cultural heritage.
Instruments
Based on the ancient royal gamelan set discovered in 1966 at Istana Kolam, Terengganu, a set of Terengganu Malay gamelan consists of seven basic instruments:
Keromong, also known as bonang (a set of 10 small kettle gongs)
Gambang (a wooden xylophone)
Saron perkin (another set of metallophones, slightly smaller than saron kecil)
Saron kecil, also known as saron barung (a set of metallophones)
Saron besar, also known as saron demung (another set of metallophones, slightly bigger than saron kecil)
According to Tengku Mariam, this dance repository originally consisted of 77 types of gamelan. But today there are only 33 types left as a result of the absence of dance instructors. Among the 33 types of dances that remain are such as Timang Burung, Ayak-ayak, Lambang Sari, Ketam Renjung, Geliung, Lantai Lima, Kending Gajah, Togok Rompin, Kunang-kunang Mabuk, Galuk Merajuk, Silatin, Lolo and Monab.
This dance performed exclusively by female dancers can be staged internally or openly. Javanese elements can be seen in terms of the art of dance. In aesthetics, this dance is very beautiful and is a form of dance that is the richest in terms of its type in the most traditional Malay dance.
