Abstract

The existence of musical practices among cultures and societies across the world has long been the concern of the scholars of various field of study. Studies that have been carried out among others bring out an approach called ecosystem of music. In this approach, the existence of music is a result of interrelating elements, namely: the music learning system, musicians and community, context and construct, regulation and infrastructure, and the media and music industry. In other words, there are things that go from upstream to downstream in a sequences which is in turn establish the existence of a music. This paper attempts to examine the role of ethnomusicologists in the effort to maintaining an ecosystem of music, focusing on an applied ethnomusicology work, i.e. the development of cultural villages in Yogyakarta. Furthermore, by understanding the role of ethnomusicologists in maintaining the ecosystem of music, the author are trying to put composition major in ethnomusicology program (in this case is in department of ethnomusicology, ISI Yogyakarta) as an effort to establishing ecosystem of music. By understanding the ecosystem music, in the end, ethnomusicologists have realized that they have to open new scenes in the domains within the ecosystem to maintain it.
