BOH Cameronian Arts Awards

"Progressive art can assist people to learn not only about the objective forces at work in the society in which they live, but also about the intensely social character of their interior lives. Ultimately, it can propel people toward social emancipation."

Synopsis : The Actors Studio and MyDance Alliance present an unforgettable night of strictly Zapin that will challenge the stereotypical view of Malay Traditional Dance. The reputed Kumpulan Kesenian Seri Budaya Johor will present a rare performance on the many colours, versions and renditions of Zapin.

Brought in by the Arabs, Zapin is a very popular Nusantara folk form, danced by all members of the community starting from young children to old datuks. It is a form that evolved from the people's padang to the international dance scene.

Gema Zapin dari Hujung Tanah features 11 Zapin pieces, among them the renowned Zapin Pekajang from Johor Baru, Zapin Tenglu from Mersing and Zapin Kores from Batu Pahat.
