Hi, I want to tell you about my experience
at Matswapati Festival that is held on the 27th of September 2014.
Matswapati festival is a West Javanese
cultural festival that is held by SMAN 3 Bandung. The festival used to be held
annually but for some unknown circumstances the festival stopped being held
annually, until in 2014 where the festival is being held again.
Matswapati festival showcases our West
Javanese culture and tries to present it to the younger generations, so they
learn to love their own culture. In Matswapati festival, we have a lot of
traditional art performances such as Wayang, Angklung performance, and many
more. Not only we do have a traditional value to attract the younger
generations, we also have Glenn Freddly and barsena to perform there as a guest
star.
Their performance was great, my favourite
moment is when Barsena sang Lorde’s “Royals” and when Glenn Freddly ask the
audience to take a selfie with him. Glenn’s performance ended the festival
quite nicely, I really love how he communicate with the audience, you can almost feel the interaction between the audience and the performer. It was such an awesome experience.
