Some of his composed songs : Tharyar (Kyo)

Myanma saiwai

Saiwai Solo Here!

Saing Waing or the drum ensemble is composed of Myanmar traditional instruments namely, a set of drums formed into a circle, gongs similarly hung, gongs within a framework, shawn, big drum, horizontal drum, six small upright drums, short drum, cymbals and clappers. The main instrument among them is Pat Wain, or drums circle, which is constituted with graduated drums slung from slats that form into a circle. There are usually 18 to 21 drums in the instrument. There is a maxim requiring the player of drums circle to produce sounds that are firm, distinct, loud-sounding, accurate and resonant.

In the olden day, the durm circle was classed as “royal” for performance in the palace or as “common” for ordinary citizens. All teh royal drum ensembles were embellished with glass mosaic and gilded. The drum ensembles were termed diamond ensemble, emerald ensemble, ruby ensemble, nine-gem ensemble, golden ensemble or silver ensemble depending on the color of glass mosaic used, and on whether they were gilded or silver-colored. Teh drum circles for ordinary citizens were mostly made of wood and red coloring without the ornaments.

The componants of a drum circle include royal aperture, the circumference, the height, the pedestal, pillow, arm, hood, big drum bearer, witness stand, pig bipod, monkey stool and upright ears. The slates are usually made of Yamane wood.

13 Kyo Classic

In learning Myanma Mahagita, you need to begin with 13 Kyo classics as the basics. Kyo classics are composed with the aim to facilitate learning tones and combinations.

In arts and performing arts schools in the Union of Myanmar, the 13 Kyo songs are prescribed as the first year’s syllabus for the harp, the drum-circle, the xylophone and the piano, to be learned primarily in the set order.

In my blog, the basic 13 Kyo classics are displayed in international staff notes both for the music and the lyrics.

Inserting the words, “si: ne. wa: si: ne. wa:” in the introductory music in the songs Htantra, Thidar and Tharyar is meant for the beginners learning Myanmar Mahagita to understand the rhythm of Myanmar Music.
