With the theme colour,blue, the IIUM Angklung Group celebrated the very first time Barbeque Party yesterday, 5 January 2008. With the objective of strengthening the bond between the team new and old members, the small event took place at Riverside, Cultural Activity Centre, IIUM. With our own special guest,BapakDadang and family, Cikgu Ku Zahir and Norliza Che Hassan, that evening was enjoyable with its very own way. Even though the weather did not allow much to happen, except for the brief present-giving ceremony among the members, the evening was conducted very well, thanks to our own President who made sure for the barbeque party run smoothly and to the members who came early and willing to help.
And all in all, thank you for those who came. It is hoped that that evening will meet its objective; to bind everyone in IIUM Angklung Group as one, Insya Allah.

"One for all, all for one."

PLAYLISTS: Dia Datang, Ketipang Payung, Selamat Hari Raya, Cindai

Yesterday at CAC Hall IIUM, the Angklung Team had performed in front of many staffs and lecturers of the university for IIUM Shawwal Celebration 2007.
Not only the team, the 2-hour feast was also entertained by Caklempong, Zapin and Nasyid groups, accompanied by Cikgu Ku Zahir and his 4 collegues from Istana Budaya; each as a violinist, bassist, gambus player and percussionist.
That evening also were celebrated by not only IIUM workers, but also Tan Sri Sanusi Junid and wife and the rector of the university, Dr. Syed Arabi. The song Dia Datang accompanied the arrival of the VIPs .
And as the guests enjoying the meals provided, the performers continued with some various presentations from the beginning of the celebration until the end.
As for the IIUM Angklung Team, it was a challenging performance for them as the songs they played have real upbeat tempo that needs them to play fast, thanks to Cikgu Ku Zahir as he provided the scores for the team, except for Ketipang Payung.
All in all, many enjoyed the performances, including the team itself. Yet, there are so many improvements needed, including the presence of the members for training and their dicipline to follow the schedule. Or else, the show wouldn't succeed. Wallahu'alam. read more
