Congklak and YoYo #Piano solo #EASY #Gabrielle Felicita Chen #Congklak and YoYo #Gabrielle Felicita Chen #SheetMusicPlus

Piano Solo - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1083572 Composed by Gabrielle Felicita Chen. 20th Century,Children,Country,Folk,Pop. Score. 4 pages. Gabrielle Felicita Chen #687775. Published by Gabrielle Felicita Chen (A0.1083572). I composed this piece about couple months ago, about February 2022, with a title of: â€œCongklak and YoYoâ€ Starting when I was inspired by two popular Indonesian traditional children's games called Congklak and Yo-Yo. Congklak is also known as Mancala in other countries. The history of Congklak game came from a long way- originated from the Middle East to Africa and finally spread to Asia. In Indonesia, the game was at first only played by the young girls from the Javanese nobility families. With the passage of time, Congklak game's popularity grew and was widely played by common people. On the other hand, 'Yo-Yo' is a game using a toy that consists of a circular object and a long piece of string tied into it in such a way that the object can be made to go up and down by manipulating the string. Girls would be playing Congklak together while the boys playing Yo-Yo. I was so drawn to both games because they were both such entertaining games to play amongst friends. So I decided to translate my fascination of the games into my piano composition. After understanding deeper on how to play the game of YoYo, I was inspired to put on â€˜ascending and descending notesâ€™ as a way to interpret and emulate the YoYo's up and down movements. To illustrate the game of Congklak, I used â€˜staccatosâ€™ and â€˜ornamentsâ€™ to emulate the sound of seeds moving from one hole to another in a rotating sequence. Moreover, I was able to use different kinds of musical techniques to express different moods. I applied D Major to create an exciting nuance of playing together, and spiced it up with the touch of Javanese Scale which represents the Javanese Gamelan sounds that are usually transcribed into Western notations. Well, enjoy! ðŸ˜ƒ.
