Ki Narto Sabdo (Javanese script: ꦟꦂꦠꦱꦧ꧀ꦢ) (Klaten Regency, 25 August 1925 – Semarang, 7 October 1985)[1] was a dalang (puppeteer) and composer, considered one of the maestros of Javanese traditional arts in Indonesia. [2]
Early life
editKi Narto Sabdo's real name was Soenarto/Sunarto , the elder son of Mr. Parta Tanaya (a carpenter/a frame maker). [3] Soenarto and his 8 brothers lived in a well-to-do family. [3] Therefore, his school history is only at SD (standard school) Muhamadiyah which is not different from other brothers. [3] Looking at this poor situation, he has always lived with concern and is determined to alleviate the suffering in his family by selling a mask. [3] Soenarto has shown artistic talent since he was a child, so he dared to go on an adventure (traveling = Indonesia) with great determination. [3] Since he was 15 years old, he has often participated in puppet shows. [3]
He lived in Krangkungan Hamlet, Pandhes Village, Vedhi Glasses, Klathèn District, Central Java.[4]
Name
editAt the time of Narto Sabdo's birth, many Javanese people had only one name. The standard transcription of his birth name at the time was Soenarto. The spelling "Sunarto" reflects modern Indonesian orthography, although the general approach in Indonesia is to rely on the spelling preferred by the person concerned.
Career
editIn 1945, Soenarto met Ki Satro Sabdo, the leader of Wayang Orang (WO) Ngesti Pandawa in Semarang.[1] Soenarto joined Ngesti Pandawa as a drummer, though he also danced comic roles.[5]and learned puppetry from Ki Satro Sabdo.
, Soenarto started to find a good place to achieve his dream of becoming a famous artist. [3] Ki Narto Sabdo became a dhalang , in the middle of the 60s, and tried to break through the world of ordinary dances with modified dances. [3] The works of art from Ki Narto Sabdo have become famous in the Archipelago, especially in the area of Central Java. [4]
Creation within Nypsita Gending
editWhen he joined WO Ngèsti Pandawa , Sunarto was asked to work on the drums for the stage. [5][6] From then on, he made new innovations in drumming. From this new dance performance, WO Ngèsti Pandawa can join all those who watch this WO performance. [6] One of Ki Narto Sabdo's well-known works is Swara Suling . [6] This song was created when Soenarto's love clapped his hand to a princess he loved. [6] While pondering the feeling of disappointment and concern, the sound of a flute was heard playing a Japanese song called Miyoto song. [6] From this situation, Sunarto created the song Swara Suling. [6] The poems written by Ki Narto Sabdo are well-known because they were popularized through the stage of WO Ngesti Pandawa. [6] From the hundreds of Ki Narto Sabdo's drumming works, various singers from traditional Javanese musicians. [6] The traditional musicians believe that the work of Narto Sabdo has moved away from the traditional karatamok which has a rule of thumb. [6] Ki Narto Sabdo also stated that there are many critics about his works, but if everyone is willing to feel the performance of the Nartosabdan drum, it can be said that the drums do not come from the grip but the flowers of the drum's work are different. [6] Since then, Ki Narto Sabdo became an icon of drum creation in the world of dance and popularized that traditional art should be "nut of the time it happened". [6] Ki Narto Sabdo's well-known works such as Swara Suling , Lesung Jumengglung , Lumbung Desa , Prau Sailar , Ketawang Ibu Pertiwi , Rujak Jeruk , Glopa-Glape, Mari Kangen, Langgam Setya Tuhu etc. [6]
Traditional Javanese musicians
editIn addition to being a talented composer and poet, Ki Narto Sabdo is also a traditional musician. [7] Since he was still in the east, he knew the type of keroncong music . [7] That's why musical elements are included in his works, for example, he uses the intro and rhythm of three quarters (¾) which is not commonly used in the world of dance. [7] Another point of the Nartosabdan drum is that it has one or two sounds like western music , so it is not impossible that the drum is performed by a singer outside of the Ki Narto Sabdo group. [7] The langgam dance that was adopted from the keroncong was developed and modified to make the keroncong feel softer in the first dance. [7] Many of Ki Narto Sabdo's famous songs include Nyidham Sari , Impènku , Kadhung Tresna , Klinci Ucul , Mlathi Rinoncé , Setya Tuhu , etc. [7]
Maestro in Wanderlust
editIn 1958, Ki Narto Sabdo began to look at the world of wandering. [4] he wanted to become a master with his skills in drumming and literature, he began to hone his skills in the field. [4] With outstanding creativity, Ki Narto sabdo combined the styles of Surakarta , Banyumas , and Yogyakarta to become a new phenomenon in the world of dance. [4] With his abilities, it is not impossible that Nartosabdan's wanderings become a role model for young people. [4] His plays are Sawitri , Somba Juwing , Pendadaran Siswa Sokalima , Dasa Griwa , Mustakaweni , Ismaya Maneges , Gatutkaca Sungging , Gatutkaca Wisuda , Arjuna Cinoba , Kresna Apus , and Begawan Sendhang Garba , etc. [4]
