Tembang Sunda is a Sundanese style of traditional music, the word tembang used to denote any vocal genre. Although related to Sundanese gamelan music it developed in relative isolation as an aristocratic music in Cianjur (located between Bandung and Jakarta) during colonial Dutch rule. The music takes the form of sung poetry accompanied by kacapi or zither, suling (flute) and the occasional rebab (violin). Mesmerizing music.1. Pangreureuhan/Resting Place Pataruman Panambih:Lembur Kuring/Our Village 2. Garutan Pelog Panambih:Gunungsari 3. Sinom Genjlong Alok Genjlong Megawarna/Colourful Sky Panambih:Sedih Kingkin/Extremely Sad 4. Bayu Asih/Lover's Wind Talutur Sorog Panambih:Pangjajap/The Deliverer 5. Sinom Erang Asmarandana Pancaniti Panambih:Puspita Ligar/Blossoming Flower 6. Sinom Bungur Kumambang/The Symbol Panambih:Panungtunan/The Last

Another excellent release of the graceful tembang sunda style, featuring wistful vocals, kacapi zither and suling (flute). Beautiful music. 1. (Laras Pelog) Rajah, Gaturan, Kates Panambih:Gaya 2.
