| dc.description.abstract | The Marching Band is a field music unit, which is used or played in rows with a percussion
group as the support for the march, in addition to the wind instrument group as a melody
supporter and the Color Guard group as a beauty effect. The USU Marching Band took part
in a championship in Bandung called BMBC in 2019. At the championship, the USU
Marching Band took part in the Brass Band competition with the theme Corpse Bride. At the
show, the USU Marching Band played three songs taken from the film, including: 1. Main
titles 2. Remains of the day 3. The wedding song. For this reason, the author uses the theory
put forward by Milton Singer Singer (1996) to examine a performance there are 7 things that
must be considered, namely: limited show time, has a beginning and an end, organized
activities, a group of performers, a group of spectators, a performance venue, and
opportunity to show. And to analyze the musical form, the writer uses Prier's theory which
states that the form of music is an idea/idea that appears in the processing/arrangement of
all musical elements in a composition (melody, rhythm, harmony and dynamics). The author
uses a qualitative method with the first data collection technique is a literature study, and the
second a field study includes, observation, interviews, recording, shooting, and data
analysis. The result of the research that the writer found were that the three songs perfomed
by the USU Marching Band were unique, such as the tempo of the songs that fluctuated in
one song, the use of more the one meter in one song (polymetric), and the melodic carrier
was not fixed on only one instrument. | en_US |
