Abstract

The Ruwatan Bumi ceremony, part of the G20 Culture Ministers Meeting and Indonesia Festival Bertutur 2022, took place at Borobudur Temple, Central Java, in September 2022. Featuring a traditional ruwatan ritual, the event showcased live prayers, songs, and music from diverse Indonesian regions. Recording traditional music, vital for performance and rehearsal, was undertaken through a field recording approach. Beluk, tarawangsa, and Ronggeng Gunung were recorded using stereo and close-range methods. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, the study emphasized the significance of mastering recording techniques for informed decision-making. It highlighted the coherence between initial information, field observations, and recording quality in designing the Ruwatan Bumi G20 Culture performance.
