Know the origins of musical instruments in Aceh
Dum, dum, dum raya sounds echoed when hit on the main stage of the ongoing 2016 Aceh Rapai International Festival in Sulthanah Park Ratu Safiatuddin, Banda Aceh. A syech standing in front of the drummer guides as he moves his hand from top to bottom.
The more tightly shaped hands shoved, the more rapidly hit hitting hit, until the sound rapai more tense, the audience was screaming hysterically until syech stopped moving hands. The drummer storms in unison, silence, silence without a sound and later Seurene Kale's voice is shrill. Rapai is a traditional musical instrument of Aceh which beats using empty hands, not using sticks. Rapai usually plays a role to regulate the rhythm, tempo, jingle when chanting Islamic shades of poet are being sung. Rapai sound also makes the atmosphere more vibrant, vibrant and can foster the spirit of the audience who are watching a show. This achievement has also been used in almost all traditional soundtracks in Aceh. Even ethnic singers in Aceh also use raya collaborated with modern musical instruments such as drums, guitars and other musical instruments sums. This instrument is usually played by 8 to 12 people. This group in Aceh is known as the Awak Rapai (Group of Rapai). Along with the Seurene Kale song that has a shrill voice or Buloh Merindu, a wind instrument is almost similar to a flute. This game can not use loudspeakers. But the sound that comes out when simultaneously sounded can be heard 5 to 10 km when in a quiet village without any sound with others.
