KONSEP INCEP DALAM PENYAJIAN KOTEKAN GAMELAN GONG KEBYAR

Abstract

Balinese gamelan music has its own aesthetic dimensions for the 
 group of performers and listeners. However, it can be realized that 
 achieving a beautiful aesthetic dish is not an easy matter. Especially 
 for those who are new to, studying, or who do not own cultural 
 products. This research tries to investigate further the concept of 
 incep which is one of the references for the aesthetic value of 
 Balinese gamelan offerings, especially Gong Kebyar. The aim is to 
 find components that form concepts that can be used as guidelines
 in the art inheritance system and its performances. The author uses
 a qualitative research model, with a textual ethnomusicological 
 approach and the working theory popularized by Rahayu 
 Supanggah. Based on the research carried out, it can be seen that 
 the concept of incep is related to the value of a dish which includes 
 instrument blows that sound clear, precise and compact. The
 components that form the concept consist of ngatih, celang, and 
 maketekan. These three components have sub-requisites to achieve 
 the desired value. Because if it cannot be fulfilled then it is certain 
 that there will be sounds that are less clean or uncomfortable to hear 
 in the ear. On the other hand, if everything can be fulfilled, then 
 surely the percussion performance can achieve the aesthetic value 
 of the incep performance
