Lancaran Penghijauan, slendro manyura (by KPH Notoprojo, aka Pak Cokro)

This is an advocacy piece by Pak Cokro addressing the issue of deforestation and the effects it has on the local environment. (Penghijauan means 'greening'.) The somber tone of the message is underlined by the use of 'barang miring' (analogous to minor keys in Western music) in the vocal lines.
