Siti Zubaidah

Audio 7.11: Audio Example 11 in Chapter 7 of book: Margaret Kartomi, ‘Musical Journeys in Sumatra’, Champaign-Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2012. The “Siti Zubaidah” tale from “One Thousand and One Nights” serves as the basis for one of the plays in the “Abdul (Dul) Muluk” repertoire. “Dul Muluk”, a theatre genre with a Muslim, Middle-Eastern flavour, has spoken dialogue alternating with musical items. All performers are male; and when playing female roles, their voices remain unchanged rather than assuming a higher pitch. Songs are usually accompanied by an all-male “Abdul (Dul) Muluk” ensemble comprising three violins (“biola”), a bass drum (“jidur”), two double-headed drums (“gandang”) and a small gong (“ketawa”). Four excerpts have been extracted here from the many songs that are part of the “Siti Zubaidah” performance. The first is very lively with a Middle-Eastern feel and is the source for the short interludes that are played between changes of mood and scene; the second has a striking resemblance to “Battle Hymn of the Republic” and includes vocals by a soloist then chorus; the third also includes a solo vocalist and has a joyous quality; the fourth is slower and more pensive in mood with the vocal soloist negotiating repeated interjections by other performers. The show was presented by the Sinar Harapan Sandiwara troupe of which Bp Nawani was the leader, and recorded in December 1971. Duration: 4 min. 06 sec.

Audio 7.11：本书第7章的音频示例11，出自玛格丽特·卡尔托米（Margaret Kartomi）所著《苏门答腊的音乐之旅》（Musical Journeys in Sumatra），伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校出版社2012年出版。《一千零一夜》中的《西蒂·祖拜达》（Siti Zubaidah）故事，为“阿卜杜勒（杜尔）·穆卢克”（Abdul (Dul) Muluk）剧目库中的一出戏剧提供了创作蓝本。“杜尔·穆卢克”（Dul Muluk）是一种带有穆斯林文化与中东风格的戏剧体裁，表演形式为台词对白与音乐段落交替呈现。所有表演者均为男性，饰演女性角色时，演唱者会保留原嗓音，而非使用更高的音高。该类演出的伴奏通常由全男性组成的“阿卜杜勒（杜尔）·穆卢克”乐团完成，乐团配置包含三把小提琴（“biola”）、一支低音鼓（“jidur”）、两面双面鼓（“gandang”）以及一面小锣（“ketawa”）。本次数据集从《西蒂·祖拜达》整幕演出的配套曲目中共提取四段节选：第一段曲风轻快活泼，带有中东特色，是情绪与场景转换间穿插的简短间奏的原型；第二段与《共和国战歌》（Battle Hymn of the Republic）风格极为相似，包含独唱与合唱段落；第三段同样包含独唱人声，整体氛围欢快愉悦；第四段节奏舒缓，情绪更显沉郁沉思，主唱需应对其他表演者接连不断的插入式演唱。本次演出由纳瓦尼先生（Bp Nawani）担任团长的西纳·哈帕兰·桑迪瓦拉（Sinar Harapan Sandiwara）剧团呈现，录制于1971年12月。总时长为4分06秒，各节选时长分别为：节选1：1分20秒；节选2：0分35秒；节选3：0分50秒；节选4：1分15秒。
