Art Village Gemyung From Bayuning
As a first pad Spreading Islamic Tools
traditional art so much in our homeland. So almost all areas in the archipelago, at least one type of art has not even reached rarely more. Similarly, in the Kuningan area, precisely in the village Bayuning District Kadugede. Here is an art called Gemyung / flying (read blessing-blessing of the Prophet).
According to Mr. Adi Permana, one of the administrators of the association Art Gemyung "Arya Kemuning" which supposedly was founded in 1959 and was a gift from the Regent of Brass at the time, namely Aruman Wiranagapati, Gemyung art is art "titinggal karuhun". At a time is as a tool of the saints in spreading Islam in the West Java area. Because of the early saints - first introduced this art, then for the next many people who called with the nickname of "arts mayor".
In pagelarannya enough to take place in the house (his middle room), Gemyung art is divided in two stages; first ngaos / bubuka (do not use pirigan); and two ngaos use pirigan (tetabuhah genjring). As for who the "ngaos" it was a blessing blessing the Prophet (which of course speak Arabic), which consists of Canto 20 of them; Assalam, Mussahri, Assalatu Allannabi. etc.. While the form of flying tetabuhannya tool (genjring) of three types. The first is called kempring (smallest flying), two kempul (fly rather large), and the third goong (large flying). In subsequent developments (current) plus tetabuhannya tool drum and goong. Instead of dance performances with diselipi.
If the former is used as a tool to spread the religion of Islam, now another case, this Gemyung arts are correct - is used as a tool for entertainment. Usually displayed in the event muludan, rajaban, circumcision and puseur crowbar. Because all dingaoskannya Canto which amounted to 20, then no doubt, this Gemyung performance takes up all night. In the event functions as an entertainment circumcision to wait for the morning sunrise where circumcision will be carried out.
Developing more and more art Gemyung never experienced this in the village of Bayuning Vacum. That is when the mob was rampant Kartosuwiryo. At that time people are afraid to make the crowd noise. Especially in the village - a remote village. It was only after the gang was put down, arts gemyung started talking again. Even more to the more developed here. The more people who like. Almost every month even at times - sometimes a month two or three times, art Gemyung "Arya Kemuning" ditanggap people.
Aware of this development, the leaders in the village Gemyung generally been Bayuning elders, felt the need to conduct personal rejuvenation in Gemyung art. So since it began last year to forge some young people.
Uniquely, the so-called category of young people who have reached the age of 30 years. Since reading the blessing of the Prophet's hard, takes a good ripe age and experience, Mr. Adi Permana said when asked, why choose those young members who have reached the age of 30 years .***
