dc.descriptionMalay art songs remain an underexplored yet significant genre within the classical vocal tradition. This study examines Korban Tanah Air, a Malay art song composed by Yusran Yusoff with lyrics by Usman Awang, through textual analysis, musical composition analysis, and performance practice. The song’s patriotic and melancholic themes are deeply intertwined with its harmonic and melodic structures, reflecting a fusion of Western classical and traditional Malay musical elements. The analysis highlights the integration of Malay poetry into art song, demonstrating how the poem’s imagery and emotional depth are musically interpreted. Additionally, the study explores the challenges of performing Malay art songs, particularly in terms of lyric diction, rhythmic nuances, and expressive delivery. Through this examination, the research emphasizes the artistic and cultural significance of Malay art song and advocates for its recognition within contemporary classical vocal performances.en-US
