Ulek Putri Mali Pulang (SATB)
This unaccompanied choral arrangement is a medley of three folksongs and one children’s rhyme. They are Ulek Mayang (Terengganu folksong), Puteri Santubong (Sarawak folksong), Chan Mali Chan (Nusantara folksong), and Bapaku Pulang dari Kota (children’s rhyme by Nasir Yusof).
This arrangement brings the listeners into the timeline of fantasy from the tale of sea fairies in the Ulek Mayang, to the tales of two beautiful immortal royals in Puteri Santubong, then to the playful young man pursuing a beautiful girl in Chan Mali Chan, and finally to the closing of this fantasy tale of kids driving their toy car to meet their grandparents in the Bapaku Pulang. The tempo gradually changes from slow to lively tempo as it moves to each different song.
