Abstract
Teaching Angklung composition by only displaying notations might not be sufficient. To learn conveniently, learners require a conception of the Angklung composition tones in addition to the notation display, especially for songs with new arrangements. This paper aims at analyzing a way in developing Angklung composition teaching materials using computer technology, which are Sibelius as a music notation software and Kontakt as a virtual studio that can play high-quality sound samples of music instruments, including Angklung. To analyze the Angklung composition creation process, the computational methods were used. The analysis includes the integration process of Sibelius and Kontakt. After creating the Angklung compositions, a sound quality test was conducted to 54 students of primary school teacher education program taking art concentration using survey technique. The results indicated that the combination of Sibelius and Kontakt produced Angklung music compositions with natural, neat, and clear notes. The majority of the students found the Angklung sound samples to sound real. The students were also interested to learn Angklung through computer. Thus, it can be concluded that the development of Angklung composition teaching materials using a combination of music notation software and sounds sample-based instruments can potentially appear interesting to learners.
