Daftar Isi:
- Art is a form of expression of the soul that cannot be separated from human beings. Art makes human’s life more beautiful and colorful. Various kinds of art forms were created by humans as a form of existence and self-expression, be it in the form of dance, painting, and various other types of art. Bali as one of the world's international tourist destinations cannot be separated from the various kinds of arts in it. One of them is karawitan or art of sound. Karawitan art itself is divided into two types, namely instrumental musical art in the form of gamelan, and vocal karawitan. The art of karawitan, especially gamelan in Bali, is not only a complement to religious ceremonies or the pouring of creative ideas, but also has a very significant influence on the Balinese people and the listeners of the gamelan. The shape of the gamelan is also able to influence the soul and human behavior that dissolves in the atmosphere brought by the gamelan players. The implementation of gamelan art, either directly or indirectly, has ethical and aesthetic values. Through gamelan art, humans will learn ethical and aesthetic values. If viewed from the aesthetic value, gamelan art contains the values of truth (Satyam), purity (Shivam), and beauty (Sundaram) which are concepts of Hindu aesthetics itself. In terms of ethical values, gamelan art teaches one to learn to respect one another and learn the meaning of equality where everyone has the same position according to their respective duties and functions. Through gamelan, humans learn to harmonize what is said and what is done.
