The songs in this book include 5 jenulak, which are performed during both healing ceremonies and festive celebrations. There are also 2 folk songs sung to the accompaniment of a kereb (plucked and strummed bamboo lute). Instrumental music for recreational purpose includes 2 pieces on the pensol (bamboo nose flue). The songs and music are transcribed to approximate pitches and rhythm through the western notation system. The song text is written according to the onomatopoeia style. The original music and songs were performed by Bah Kang a\/l (son of) Bah Mat, a halaq (shaman) from the Kampung Orang Asli Bukit Terang, Kampar, Perak and his son, Alang a\/l Bah Kang from Kampung Orang Asli Batu 15, in Tapah, Perak in Malaysia. The audio recording is expected to be published on cdbaby.com, under the album titled 'Indigenous Semai Mystical Rainforest Music of Malaysia'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Zaharul Lailiddin Saidon, Clare Suet Ching Chan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1794461000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781794461000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/02\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.16d","brand":"Zaharul Lailiddin Saidon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984361357567,"sku":"9781794461000","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_74c40c9c-0b96-4e6e-b4ea-c81f83c09a19.jpg?v=1683271883","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/songs-and-music-of-the-zaharul-lailiddin-saidon-9781794461000","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
