What I Need to Know Learning Competencies The learner: 1. describes the musical characteristics of representative music selections from Mindanao after listening; MU7MN-IIIa-g1 2. analyzes the musical elements of some Mindanao vocal and instrumental music; MU7MN-IIIa-g2 3. identifies the musical instruments and other sound sources of representative music selections from Mindanao. MU7MN-IIIa- g3 Are you fond of singing different kind of music? Have you tried to sing foreign songs? or are you an avid fan of Filipino songs? This module will help you know and experience the different features and characteristics of songs particularly that of the Mindanao music. Before you start discovering what this module is all about, try to read its overview for you to know what awaits you upon exploring this module. Ready. Get set. Go! Let yourself be informed about this simple yet very important concept about music. Here in the Philippines, we usually listen to different OPM or Original Pilipino Music. As we know, these are popular music (pop music) that our radio network and television channels play every day. So popular these songs are popular that even a 2-year-old child tries to sing its lyrics of these songs. Enjoyment beyond expectation normally results to the Last Song Syndrome or LSS, which is evident whenever we love a song and repeatedly sing its melody. On the other hand, Genuine OPM is also an Original Pilipino Music but unlike the first type, this one is not that popular. We rarely hear these songs being performed on TV or radio. These songs are deeply rooted on the culture and tradition of its composer. Every region in the country has its own Genuine OPM using their own musical elements, which remains the same from the time of their ancestors until the present time. This kind of music is created with the highest form of artistry; that even professional musicians cannot write exactly its equivalent to western music. One concrete example of this kind of music is the Islamic Music of Mindanao. Our Muslim brothers were able to preserve their unique musical style from the time Islam came to the Philippines until now. Scholars said that some of the Islamic music were already existing before Islam came to Mindanao. Darangen, for example, is a pre-Islamic art form which literally means to narrate in a song. This 72,000 - line epic was awarded in 2005 UNESCO as one of the Masterpiece of the Oral and 1 CO_Q3_Music 7_ Module 1 Intangible Heritages of Humanity. In fact, this Maranao epic has been chosen among 90 proclamations by international organizations around the world which evidently shows how rich Mindanao culture is!

Let start by getting to know the music of our Muslim brothers and sisters. Below is an illustration that shows different people. Now, your first task is to identify who among them are Muslims. Try to draw them in your activity notebook and let us see if you are able to identify them correctly. Were you able to find them? Well, it is obvious that you identified who among the people in the illustration are Muslims. That is great job. Now, read the text below so that you could have more understanding about them. 5 CO_Q3_Music 7_ Module 1 Historians say that there are evidences of early settlers in the southern part of the country as early as prehistoric times. Arab traders from Malaysia and Indonesia came in contact with the natives with their products, culture and religion. In 1280, the first Muslim community in the Philippines was established in Sulu by Tuan Masha’ika. In the middle of 14th century, a religious missionary in the name of Karim-ul-Makhdum also came to Sulu. But, it was during the time of Rajah Baginda (early 15th century) that Islam’s political aspect was first introduced to the natives. The Sulu Sultanate was established by his son-in-law Abu Bakar. However, it was during the mid-15th century that Islam propagated to greater part of Mindanao through the effort of Sharif Kabungsuan. The word Mindanao is coined after the Maguindanaons who constituted the largest sultanate. The natives used this word to refer to their island at that time. When the Spaniards came to the Philippines, Islam was well established in Mindanao, and they were not able to penetrate this Philippine region. That is why until now they were able to preserve their culture, traditions and identity as people. In the Philippines, 93% of the entire Islamic population resides in Mindanao. Among this 93% are 13 ethno-linguistic groups situated in different places in the region. These are the Jama Mapuns of Cagayan de Tawi-Tawi; the Iranons of Cotabato; the Kaagans of Davao del Norte, Davao del Sur and Davao Oriental; the Kalibugans of Zamboanga; the Maguindanaons of Maguindanao; the Maranaos of Marawi; the Palawanons and Molbogs of Palawan; the Samas of Tawi-Tawi; the Sangils of Sarangani; the Tausugs of Sulu; the Yakans of Basilan, and the Bangingis of Tongkil and Zamboanga. Only five among this group can be found in Mainland Mindanao. They are the Iranon, Kaagan, Kalibugan, Maranao and Maguindanao. The Bangingis can be found in both mainland (Zamboanga) and island province Tongkil. These ethno-linguistic groups may have different literary art forms but they are all united to one culture - Muslim. The table below shows the top ten provinces with the largest Muslim population. Let us see how large their population is as well the percentage of the provinces’ population. Muslim Population % of Province's Province (2010) Pop. 1. Sulu 706,229 98.32% 2. Tawi-Tawi 353,865 96.83% 3. Lanao del Sur 872,678 94.00% 4. Maguindanao 993,040 81.73% (including Cotabato City*) 6 CO_Q3_Music 7_ Module 1 Muslim Population % of Province's Province (2010) Pop. 5. Basilan 311,004 79.56% (including Isabela City**) 6. Lanao del Norte 285,861 30.80% 7. Sultan Kudarat 209,917 28.13% 8. Cotabato 318,602 26.02% 9. Zamboanga del Sur 336,840 19.13% 10. Zamboanga 84,835 14.53% Sibugay Source: 2010 Census, NSO So, have you noticed their differences when it comes to their percentage and population? It seems that you are surprised how this happened, arent you? Most of the people in Mindanao are composed of different Muslims. That is why, it is not already a surprise why Mindanao is really a home of our Muslim brothers and sisters. Now, let us find out more about them. Accomplish the given activity as presented below. Directions: Using the map below, locate the provinces mentioned in the table above. Afterwards, answer the following questions below. In accomplishing this activity, your facilitator will give you a copy of the map. Processing questions: 1. In what part of the map do the majority of the provinces being located? 2. What do you think is the implication of this location to the preservation of their culture and tradition? 3. In your opinion, in what way do these places share common good? 7 CO_Q3_Music 7_ Module 1 What is It You are now in the section where a lot of ideas and concepts are discussed. As aforementioned, this module focuses on the Mindanao music based on its characteristics, musical elements, culture and geography. So, prepare yourself as you discover them one by one! Let us find out! Islamic Music in general is characterized by delicate patterns of melody and rhythm. To the Muslims, music is a vertical connection to Allah. That is why the Quran must be recited in a singing-like manner. In Islamic music, the vocal aspect must overmaster the instrumental. It is based on the skill of the artist which is given the freedom to improvise the piece. Here, the performer also becomes a composer. Using the traditional musical elements, the artist is encouraged to improvise with the guidance of a specific emotional or philosophical foundations of the music. One of the literary art forms of our Muslim brothers and sisters are their epics. Epics are long, narrative poems telling about heroic deeds of significant characters. In Muslim culture in Mindanao, the epics may be narrated in a form of a poem or song. At present, only three of the 13 Muslim community groups have their epics identified. This is because of the lack of informants or researchers because of peace and order situation in some areas for research. The Bantugan and Darangen of the Maranao or People of the Lake, the Indarapatra at Sulayman of Maguindanao or People of the Flood Plains, and the Parang Sabil hi Abdulla iban hi Isara of the Tausugs People of the Current. Darangen The Darangen is an epic song about Maranao people. The story, together with the Qur’an , the central religious text of Islam, serves as a cultural foundation on their community. Although it is used by a Muslim community, scholars said that most of its content dates back before the arrival of the first Muslims in Mindanao. Therefore, it is a mixture of both Islamic and non-Islamic way of life, and for the Maranao people, this Anonen A Rawaten or The Way of the Ancestors is worth imitating. Only 18 out of 25 song cycles of the Darangen has been recorded and studied. The epic deals not only about relationships and adventures but also ancestral political laws like kingship and succession. Even today elders of the community still refer to the text of the epic in dealing with various laws. Literally this epic means “to narrate in song”. For this, it will require specialized male and female performers a good memory, a skill to improvise, an imaginative and creative mind, knowledge on customary laws and traditions, a good, 8 CO_Q3_Music 7_ Module 1 clear voice, and the ability to get the audience attention for long hours of performance. Like most of our ethnic literary art forms, it is passed down from generation to generation by oral tradition but some parts have ancient transcriptions based on Arabic writing system. An Onor plays the lead role in a Darangen performance. Her responsibilities include singing the traditional songs, being a dancer, and playing the Kulintang, a set of eight small gongs. She is also expected to portray the characteristics of a Maranao princess, setting a royal standard for Maranao women. This epic is usually performed in weddings and lasts up to several nights of performances. Below is the link that you can use to listen to the Darangan Epic Song. https://youtu.be/ROqbx9VptlA Ballads Most ballads (poem that tells a story) in Muslim Mindanao are religious and historical. But would you believe that these two types of ballads are related to each other? Religious because they talk about Islamic faith. Historical because they talk about historical personality and their works - mostly to propagate or to defend the Islamic faith. And like most of their literary art forms, they are handed down from generation to generation by oral tradition. These art works are usually done in song form and accompanied by instruments like the gabbang kulintang and byula. Islamic Music retains its original form and style. There are two main uses of Islamic music. The first one is for rituals and the other is for entertainment. Music for rituals is mainly vocal with no instrumental accompaniment. Various Islamic tribes still possess the same vocal music style like the ones used by their early ancestors. Music with musical instruments attached to its performance are normally for entertainment purposes only. Tausug Vocal Music The Tausug vocal music called the “Palangan” can be categorized into narrative and lyrical songs. Narrative songs tell a story which include the Kissa or epic legends and the lyric songs which both deal with their normal and daily way of life. Lyric songs are also sub-categorized into Lugu and paggabang types. The lugu is a religious chant usually done by women. This song is related to Muslim rituals like wedding, funeral, birth, and the paggunting (traditional cutting of an infant boy’s hair during baptism.) The lugu is characterized by high vocal tension, a slow tempo, long and sustained notes, and with a tremolo at some parts of the phrase. Since this type of song is for rituals, it is sung in acapella. The paggabang, on the other hand, are songs usually accompanied by the gabbang or bamboo xylophone and the byula or violin. These songs are less serious in nature. 9 CO_Q3_Music 7_ Module 1 Lyric songs consist of the langan bata-bata or Children’s song, the Baat or occupational song. This form includes the Baat callaw or Funeral song which has a very sad melodic line, pangantin or the wedding song which the newly-wed couple dances while the singer or a modern band performs it. Traditionally, this song has a soothing melody. Another example of the Baat is the song of fishermen or farmers which has a happy melody. Moreover, sindil is another form of vocal music. It is their local version of the balagtasan wherein a man and a woman exchange ideas for a certain topic. It is usually done in weddings. Here are the links of the songs to further deepen your understanding about the different types of vocal music, please visit the following YouTube links below for the audio and video samples of the specific type of the songs. 1. Kissa https://youtu.be/K_dm_-f7Vik 2. Langan Batabata https://youtu.be/X_W4A6i4Ti4 3. Sindil https://youtu.be/Lut7EZzOduE 4. Liangkit https://youtu.be/FkiM14YlGNU 5. Luguh https://youtu.be/Nr7FIY3ePgY Another forms of vocal music of Mindanao are the Diker or death song of Maranao and the Dekil or Maguindanaon mournful song. All of these songs regardless of its tribe of origin have some common characteristics: 1. Melismatic style of singing. Melisma means a group of notes sung in one syllable of the text. The following YouTube links will help you understand the melismatic style of singing. Listen to these two songs as you answer the two questions below. Write your answers on your activity notebook. Queen of Melisma. (https://youtu.be/6qTnKl5yUFw) Luguh (https://youtu.be/Nr7FIY3ePgY) 1.1. What are the commonalities of the two songs? 1.2. How does it differ from the Luzon and Visayas folk songs? 2. Use of tremolo (rapid reiteration of a single note). The tremolo produces a musical effect which resembles a shaky sound of notes. 3. Long and slow melodic phrase. Unlike the regular song which has a fixed meter or number of syllables for each line in stanza, these songs have indefinite length of lines which results from the singer’s improvisation of the tune of the song. 4. Strained or throaty voice. This style of singing is very common to ethnic groups wherein the singer uses his/her speaking voice to execute the song. 5. Free rhythm. Vocal music of Mindanao uses the free rhythm style. It means there are no fixed measures in the song. You cannot distinguish if the song you are hearing is done in duple, triple or quadruple. And because the singer has always the freedom to improvise the piece, one cannot predict the length of each line of the song. 10 CO_Q3_Music 7_ Module 1 What’s More Congratulations!
