COMMUNITY CONTROL AND PATTERNS ON THE EXISTENCE OF RANDAI DAYANG DAINI IN KOTO BARU COMMUNITY, MUNGKA SUB-DISTRICT, WEST SUMATERA

Abstract

Randai Dayang Daini is one of the Minangkabau traditional art forms that are owned by the Koto Tuo
Mungka community, Mungka District, 50 City Regency which is almost forgotten by the community. This
paper aims to reveal the existence, causes of decline, and the efforts made to maintain the existence of
this art. The results of this paper indicate that Randai Dayang Daini was used during the sale period at
weddings, welcoming guests, circumcisions and the appointment of the chief. But now this art is starting
to be forgotten, this is because this randai is considered ancient and not in line with Islamic teachings,
there is social jealousy in randai members and a lack of variation in each performance. There are several
efforts made by the community to maintain this randai art, such as female characters who were
previously played by men now must be women who play them and vice versa. The change in the place
where the appearance used to be in an open space is now inside the multipurpose building. Previously all
musical instruments were traditional instruments, now they can also be assisted by modern musical
instruments such as organ, violin or band.
