tirto.id - Tanggal 9 Maret diperiangati sebagai Hari Musik Nasional di Indonesia. Tema Hari Musik Nasional 2023 "Musik Indonesia Keren".
Salah satu cara merayakan Hari Musik Nasional tahun ini adalah berbagi quotes atau ucapan selamat.
Tema ini menunjukkan musik Indonesia tidak kalah kualitasnya dengan musik mancanegara dan dapat menjadi "tuan rumah" di negeri sendiri.
Salah satu kebijakan pemerintah yang mendorong kemajuan musik Indonesia datang di masa Presiden Soekarno. Saat itu, Soekarno memasukkan kebijakan politik untuk melarang hadirnya lagu-lagu barat di Indonesia. Inilah yang kemudian membuat musik lokal sangat berkembang dan menjadi industri di era 60-an.
Dosen Departemen Sejarah Fakultas Ilmu Budaya Universitas Padjadjaran, R. M. Mulyadi, mengatakan jika lagu-lagu Indonesia juga digemari penikmat musik Malaysia. Masyarakat Malaysia memiliki kebiasaan menikmati musik. Sampai-sampai 60 persen lagu yang diperdengarkan di Malaysia merupakan lagu Indonesia di era 1960 sampai akhir 1970-an.
“Hal ini menjadikan habit bagi orang Malaysia dalam mendengarkan musik, mereka akhirnya terbiasa mendengarkan musik Indonesia,” tutur Mulyadi.
Penyebab lain Negeri Jiran begitu akrab dengan lagu Indonesia pada masa lalu yaitu koleksi piringan hitam yang dimiliki Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI) pernah dipinjamkan ke negeri itu. Lagu-lagu dalam piringan hitam diperdengarkan secara luas.
Sekarang industri musik Indonesia bertambah maju. Para musisi yang menginduk pada perusahaan label rekaman hingga mereka yang mengambil jalur indie label, sama-sama menelurkan karya. Hal ini menjadikan dunia musik Indonesia makin kaya dan mendapat tempat tersendiri bagi penikmat musik di mana saja.
