Hey Kuching
Buy your ticket now to watch the performance of Alena Murang - Sape Musician and Cultural Artist With A Mission at Sarawak International Festival of Music and Arts (SIFMA) Gala Concert at Old Legislative Assembly (DUN).
Alena Murang is one of the first and few females to play the sape', drawing on her heritage to share stories in native languages of Sarawak, a Malaysian state on the island of Borneo. Her music evocatively captures the lyrical, mystical essence of native traditions endangered by rapid, relentless modernization. Alena’s alluring, mellifluous voice lends an angelic purity and ethereal dimension to the earthy simplicity and soul-soothing quality of these enchanting longhouse ditties. Her consummate skill on the sape’ and other instruments like the pagang (tube zither) gives a polished sheen to the entire production. Growing up between two worlds – the indigenous and the cosmopolitan – she effortlessly bridges both. The result is a melodious (and slightly melancholy) compilation of Kelabit and Kenyah songs with a refreshing contemporary sound and spirit. Her live shows journeyed from Rainforest World Music Festival Malaysia to Førde Traditional and World Music Festival Norway, South by Southwest USA, Oz Asia Festival Australia, Etnosur Festival Spain, Colours of Ostrava Czech Republic and Wonderfruit Festival Thailand. She was a UNESCO Youth Ambassador in 2017 and is a youth advisor to UNESCO Asia Pacific. In 2018 she was awarded the Miri Mayor award for Tourism.
