Siti Payung (SATB)
Siti Payung is a classic Malay song in the style of the "Lagu Melayu Asli", a folk music genre of the peninsular Malay community. This arrangement of the song retains many of the traditional "Lagu Asli's" elements such as the embellishments, the phrasing of the test and the beats. The arranger has written a new set of lyrics for this arrangement while retaining the original melody and traditional elements of the original piece. The new lyrics tell of the feelings of a young man towards a lovely girl called Siti Payung, and how even though they are from two different classes of society, with God's blessings, all will be possible. Choirs may add on the Malay Rebana and accordion as optional accompaniment to make the piece more authentically Malay.
