Today I went to Pamulangan
Habirandha for the third times. Have you ever heard that? That’s a kind of
informal school at Yogyakarta. The students are people who want to know about how to be a dhalang.
That’s awesome.
I met Wiyarno, he’s a student there. His job is
soto seller in Jalan Malioboro. I asked him, why do you study here? He said,”I
have studied band music (I guess he just play conventional music instrument
like guitar, bass guitar, and drum) , which is west culture. Why I don’t study
my own culture?”
You know what, I weren’t confident to had some
conversations with people there because I’m Javanese (at least my parents told
me that) but I have no knowledge about wayang which is one of Javanese culture
product. Poor me!
