Describe the characteristics of Malay songs

The traditional musical instruments in Malaysia are mainly Gamelang in Indonesia, such as milk gong, bronze drum group and xylophone. India's magic single root, tabula, basuri and suona, Arab lute and Laba's stringed instruments, and western European violin have also become a member of the Malay family.

There are many bamboo musical instruments, such as flute, sheng, mouth spring, bamboo stringed instrument, bamboo harp and wooden drum, as well as various stringed instruments, Genbus and lyre, which are very diverse and have their own characteristics. Drum instruments include a bowl drum (Rebana), a big round drum, which requires two people to lift the drum at the same time. One person is behind the other, just like a pair of drums and drums in Beigang to greet Mazu. This kind of drum is not only used for wedding celebrations, but also for the round drum in Malaka, or between villages or between mountains, with different rhythms. Talking to the African drum has the beauty of singing in unison. Malay drums look more like western drums and are usually used for celebrations and the Year of Malay. Gendang, Kertok Bersars, Telban, GeBandoc, Gendalang, etc. are formed by various dovetail ring fertilizers.

In addition to traditional Malay music, there are other Chinese and Indian immigrant communities in Malaysia, all of which have a history of more than 100 years and still retain the characteristics of their hometown. Islamic songs and dances combined with European musical instruments are also very popular. Sabah in East Malaysia also has its own traditional musical instruments, music, dances and special celebrations. These different ethnic groups have enriched the diverse characteristics of Malaysia.

Malaysia's traditional music, dance and drama are closely related to the history and national cultural changes of Malays, and are proud cultural assets of Malaysians. Today, in the face of the impact of western music, Malaysian pop music in Malaysia is still infused with sweet drum music that you and I will never forget!
