How Can One Make Money From A Music Business

Income is ones revenue, financial gain or earnings that accrue over a given period of time. Having a music business of your own, are you familiar with the types of income you can derive your earnings from? Do you know what form of income derivation you have and how effective it is to help you with your music business? If not, then try to get a load of this information and you will definitely get an idea of what I am talking about here. There are several types of income derivation where one would be able to get his or her earnings, one is called Active income.

Active income are those earnings that you get paid for. This is the typical way of acquiring you income, either from an hourly job, a specific contract or a part time job as well. This first type of income derivation is: what is the most common thing that we are aware of and this actually is the starting point for every individual to be able to achieve financial gain.

Another is Passive income and this is where one gets earnings by deriving money without exceeding that much effort in doing hands on work regularly. This is one way of deriving income from an automated system that does all the work for you. All you have to do is to sit down and relax, manage the earnings that comes into your bank account and that’s it.

Lastly, portfolio income is actually a long range type of income derivation and this allows you not to work for a long time but you will as well be able to produce easy money regularly. For instance having investments that involve properties and investing in the stock market. Passive income and portfolio income are both contributors in financial independence. Having these two types of income derivation united into one would definitely give you an edge in the music business.

Let’s say for instance you are a guitar player and a really good one, to be able to use passive income derivation, you develop your own website online because this is where you actually get your market from. Now, since your skills are in guitar playing you go post courses on line where they would be able to learn how to play the guitar in a week or so depending on the online course that they take. And from there, interested individuals acquire courses from your website and bring money into your pocket, isn’t that great?

Now that you are armed with this information, I believe that you will be able to decide from here what has to be done on your end to be able to gain income from your music business the easier way. If you would really like to know more about it, you can find a lot of website links that may talk about financial independence and that would lead you to further success so do a little research that would help you enhance your earning in this music industry.

Music Of The Philippines Will Save Your Day

Author Resource: Elmer Anthony Olaer. Anthony's FilipinoMusica.com is the place to get Philippines Music Lyrics, find out the Top Pilipino Music Artist and watch Filipino Music Videos Article provided by - Published-Articles.com



Just when you feel you are worn out and tired and nothing seems to soothe your morbid mind, listening to Philippine music may save your day and makes it fine.

Music as we know, can inspire, edify or even lighten up a heavy spirit or a hackneyed heart - so don't be down, just turn on your radio and beat that frown.

You can certainly find a wholesome musical experience in an archipelago with more than seven thousand islands - the Philippines! With a touch of European, American, Spanish and indigenous cultures, Philippine music evolved with a sense of universality that goes beyond territorial boundaries.

No wonder that even foreigners appreciate Filipino music. They love to listen to it because of its blend of various ideals and identities. From the southern regions, traditional music still lives and usually played with accompanying dances during fiestas and gatherings. Or in the northern part where a lot of indigenous music could be heard.

In the Visayan regions, folk songs are still sung and what the folks there call "composo" - which is a song that tells of a story of war, of love or of any subject that are put into words and music - are usually played in local stations on Sundays or of men gathering in a nearby country store with their guitars.

Whereas the likes of Kundiman, harana and rondalla which are Spanish - influenced and are popular in the olden times, are still in existence and are played on certain occasions especially in the barrios. Harana is famous in the rural places especially to young men courting young women.

But if you are the type who likes lively and upbeat music, Philippine rock music are also in the list. Philippine hip - hop and RNB music certainly caters to those who are more inclined to soft and mellow moods.

Further on the list of Philippine music are love songs written by famous and talented Filipino artist. Songs that can be considered as classics, since they have seen through - and have become a part of - different generations.

Philippine music is unique - even though it's a mixture of various cultures - since they are composed and sung in a purely Filipino way, that is, they show how a Filipino culture is like.

The OPM or what is known as Original Pilipino Music reflects that Filipinos truly have a great passion for music. Aside from having a wonderful tune, OPM's have an informative lyrics which tell of the realities happening in our society or in other parts of the world. They don't only lift up the spirit but also they serve as venue for us to reflect - amidst the hustle and bustle of the day - that we are a part of a society where concern and care for others are greatly in need.

The likes, for example of Freddie Aguilar - whose music and songs are really meaningful and soothing to listen to - who popularize the song "Anak" tells of a bitter reality that could befall a child who is drowned in drugs.

And many more songs that we can say a truly Philippine music and has become a part of Filipinos' everyday lives.

How Well Do You Know the Project and Program Control Techniques?

Multinational business entities refer to Project and Program Control Techniques (PPCT), for ensuring the success of their endeavors from various facets of Corporate Management. The non-repetitive project or program is becoming an increasingly frequent phenomenon for the last three decades in large organizations. As these projects also increase in scale, complexity, and cost, new methods for planning and controlling them have been and are being developed. The best known of the older approaches is the Gantt chart, which was developed by Henry L. Gantt.

This relatively simple chart has made a significant contribution to project management and is still a valuable and widely used control tool. It is also the foundation upon which the other, more sophisticated types of project and program control techniques: milestone scheduling, Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT), and Critical Path Method (CPM) – are based.

Milestone Scheduling: If you select a date when a certain accomplishment, decision, or event is to take place and indicate that date on the horizontal bar of a chart, you have created a milestone. The milestone date may be a date on which a decision is to be made concerning outside financing; it may be a date when announcement of the project to the trade press is planned; it may simply be a date when a thorough project progress review is scheduled. Usually, however, the milestone represents a selected date by which a certain phase of the entire project is to be implemented.

Network Analysis: PERT and CPM: Gantt charts are appropriate for scheduling a series of unrelated activities, such as separate production runs in a job shop operation. The milestone method can be used to divide major project into sub-activities so that managers can achieve greater control. Neither approach, however, can adequately deal with the interrelationships among activities or events. These interrelationships form an important aspect of more complex projects and programs in which one activity or event will often depend on the successful completion of other activities or events.

In such situations, some form of network analysis is necessary to ensure that the entire project or program is moving ahead as planned. The two major forms of network technique are Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) and Critical Path Method (CPM). The systems were developed independently, although virtually at the same time, around 1957 – 58. PERT was first developed for the U.S. Navy in connection with the Polaris weapons system and is credited with reducing the completion time of the program by two years. CPM was developed by Du Pont in order to facilitate its control of large, complex industrial projects. The two systems are similar in most essential respects.

The main difference lies in the treatment of time estimates. PERT was created primarily to handle research and development projects in which time spans are based on probabilistic estimates. CPM, on the other hand, is usually concerned with projects that the organization has had some previous experience with. Time estimates, therefore, can be made relatively accurately. The use of both PERT and CPM has spread rapidly and made a significant impact on the planning and control of projects and programs.

Both systems are most appropriate for controlling special, complex, non-repetitive projects such as development of a large weapons system, highway construction, shipbuilding, or the installation of a large-scale data processing system. However, PERT or CPM system involve considerable expense, particularly if the system is computerized. In deciding whether or not to use a system, managers must determine to what extent the project to be controlled is time-critical.

For example, projects such as reinforcing a weak dam, constructing a building, or completing contracts that include penalty payment clauses are highly time-critical. The expense of a complete CPM or PERT system would probably be justified for such projects, since these systems make it much more likely that the projects will be completed on time. In your job, are you applying these techniques? Which one and why?

What to Look For in a Guitar Teacher and How to Select the Best One for You

Learning to play the guitar can be an extremely rewarding experience, but it is made even more so if you find the right teacher who is also a guide that will help you achieve your musical goals with the right resources. Choosing the right teacher can be frustrating because it's difficult to figure out which ones are exceptional; in addition to this if you choose the wrong teacher then you can end up being demotivated through no fault of your own.

I have been responsible for hiring all the instructors at my music school Starland Music Center for 30 years. I'll share with you what I've learned over the years what I consider to be the best ways to separate the "wheat from the chaff."

Teaching with a plan:

The best teachers always prepare and have a plan: it's said in teaching that for every hour of teaching you need to prepare twice as much. You should be able to tell whether you're dealing with a professional just with your first meeting - they will determine where you are, where you are trying to go and then propose a method for getting you there. Even in the first lesson they might give you exercises to evaluate where you are.

The best teachers are not afraid to tell you their methods:

You can always tell the worst teachers, because they are the ones who "wing it." If you can tell that your prospective teacher hasn't prepared for the lesson and looks like they are making up stuff on the spot - they probably are. Get away as fast as you can. With these types of teachers you won't achieve any progress, because there's no system to their teaching. If you don't realize this right from the beginning, you end up six months later feeling like you haven't progressed at all and you become very confused. You may even blame your lack of progress on some ridiculous notion that "you don't have any talent."

The best teachers stick to their plans and while they may reward you now and then by teaching you a song you really like, more likely they will find out anyway your tastes and incorporate those into later lessons when you get to that level.

Travel distance:

How to find a good teacher also depends on how far you are willing to travel for your lessons. The more consistent you are in not missing your lessons the faster you will progress - and it's much easier to be consistent if you don't have to travel too far to see your teacher. 30 minutes travel time is a good average, but only you know what you can honestly tolerate.

Abilities vs. teaching skills:

The two are not mutual (but neither are they mutually exclusive). Just because a guitarist is an amazing performer, does not mean that they could be a great teacher. In fact, it's more likely that the best teachers are the ones who are unable to perform so much because they are teaching so much. When you are a beginner, it's best to go with a teacher who is excellent at teaching you all the basics, you don't need to worry too much about how great a performer they are. But then as you advance, you can always seek out another teacher who specializes in a particular style that you like.

What you should be looking for is a teacher who is both an inspiration and someone who has traveled the hard road of being a student and comes back to show you the way.

Instructor experience:

1) One way to work out whether your prospective teacher has enough experience is to see how many students they teach. If it's true that it takes thousands of hours to learn to play an instrument, then it's also true that it takes thousands of hours to learn how to teach! Ask them:

- how many years they have taught

- how many students do they teach a week

- how long do students stay with them

But be careful, because teachers with a lot of students may also not have enough time for you or not track your progress enough.

An organized teacher who has many students is also a good choice. This means taking notes, keeping track of your progress and using some sort of register.

Personal Note: At one point I had 60 weekly 1/2 hour private students. Though I was working long hours I had no problems keeping track of each student's progress and giving them my full attention during the lesson because I had a system.

2) The level of current and past students is also something that is significant. If you are looking for beginner lessons look for a teacher who is skilled at teaching beginners. There are totally different teaching methods and styles involved in teaching different levels.

3) Age range of students. It's best to divide students into children, teenagers and adults. Look for a teacher with experience teaching students of your age range.

Training does make a difference:

Your prospective teacher should not only be trained at how to play their guitar. Ideally you want to pick a teacher who has also been taught by good teachers. Good teachers will always model their lessons on the good teachers' methods that taught them. These types of teachers will use methods and materials that worked well when they were learning and keep you away from methods that don't work.

A teacher can also be taught by a school. College graduates are likely to have training only in classical guitar as most universities do not offer programs in popular music. But many instructors that I've hired have been to schools such as Musician's Institute in L.A., Grove School Without Walls, and Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA., which do offer popular music.

The other way to learn to teach guitar is to take a course with the same name - though the only one I know of is the one I teach at the Starland Music Center using my proprietary system along with the principles and techniques of proper instruction. You can also get wonderful books on this topic (check out author Joe Livoti) and you can learn a lot from method books and testing the ideas on your students.

How To Calm Your Kids Down With Music

As told by my grandmother:

As a grandmother of four grandchildren under the age of five, it’s often overwhelming when they all come over to my house for a visit. On the occasions that I have been left alone with them, babysitting or just playing with them, they often become boisterous and loudly competitive, sometimes difficult to control.

One day, anticipating their arrival, I decided to turn on some quiet, soothing music and to have it playing during their visit. I wondered if it would help keep them calmer and, hopefully, more quiet than usual, (I already had a slight headache, even before their arrival). My oldest grandson noticed the music. I asked him if he liked it, and he said yes, that it sounded like “sleepy music,” so I left it on, quietly in the background.

After about a half hour, I noticed, (happily, I might add), that the children were playing “nicely” together, and that the atmosphere was generally less noisy and more relaxed than on previous visits. And my headache, (albeit with the aid of an aspirin), was noticeably better.

Upon reflection, I considered that the change in their general behavior was largely due to the calming influence of the music. I was reluctant to challenge my hypothesis by changing to more upbeat music, as I was enjoying the peaceful atmosphere too much and didn’t want to risk it. But I was impressed with the obvious power inherent in music and how conducive it was for a peaceful experience .

When I was a music student studying Music Therapy, I learned that it is therapeutic to match a patient’s mood with music of the same or similar mood. This surprised me, because I thought that if a particular patient was, for example, depressed, then wouldn’t it follow that, in order to help the patient out of depression, it would be more helpful to play “happy’ music? Not so, according to the music therapy experts. It is apparently preferable to allow the particular mood rather than fight it, as the patient often experiences more agitation when listening to music opposite their mood.

Maybe it was a lucky coincidence that my grandchildren were calmer and more mellow than usual that day maybe the music actually matched their moods. I wonder, which actually came first their moods or the music? I think that either case is feasible: sometimes a mood might be improved upon with the judicial use of appropriate music and conversely, music can possibly aggravate a given mood. I find it interesting that music can support emotions or exacerbate them.

It was a lovely afternoon with the grand-kids. Maybe the music assisted them in achieving a more peaceful afternoon at their grandmother’s house. I know one thing, they were visibly more relaxed, more attentive to storytelling and story books and less combative and aggressive. Maybe I just got lucky that day. Perhaps I’ll test my theory further another day during another visit, but I’ll make sure that I don’t have a headache if I do.

Download Songs Free - The Easy Way

About the Author
For more ways to download songs free, visit DownloadSongsFree.Net.

The world has never seen this much media availability ever. Thanks to the Internet, sharing and downloading all sorts of media has become easier than ever. One of the most downloaded form of which is music, as proven by the impact of this popular music sharing/downloading website on the internet-savvy public and its notoriety for breaching quite a few copyright laws several years back. A few other websites offering the same kind of service have surfaced after that, some still offering free downloads but most have opted to go legitimate and charge downloads to keep safe and avoid any infringement issues, not to mentioned make good business out of it as well. However, recent applications have freed the downloaders again from the paysite blues and once more able to download songs free. Here are the 3 most common ways of downloading songs for free

The Artist's website

Almost all artists/musicians (including the independent ones) have their own websites to promote their work. During these promotions, they usually give out promo copies which may be downloaded from their websites for free. However, in most cases only 1 or 2 tracks are available for free download. If you want the other songs from the album, you would have to buy it online. This option works well if you are only after the free promo song from the album.


The Streaming Video/Music

Online streaming video websites also feature music videos. These videos may be viewed using your Internet browser. Some of these websites openly free download of their video content, but should it not, a host of online-streaming-video downloader software are available online and are also downloadable for free. Downloading and installing any of these will enable you to download streaming videos from these websites. Most of these video downloaders also come with a video format converter which will not only convert your downloaded video (usually in .FLV format) into any format you need it to be in (i.e. .AVI, .MP4, .MPEG, etc.), but it can also extract the audio from the video and convert it into an audio format (i.e. .MP3, .WAV, .3GP, etc) of your choice.

The BitTorrent file

The first 2 options will work fine if you are searching for individual songs to download. However, if you would like to download entire albums by artists, it would be best to download the album using a BitTorrent client. This will require you to download and install a BitTorrent client software such as "utorrent". After installing the software, all you need to do is open a torrent website which will help you search for the torrent file of your choice. These torrent websites work like any other search engine website: there will be a search bar for you to enter your search category and torrent files that match your search will be displayed almost instantly. Clicking on these torrent files will send the torrent file to your torrent client (utorrent, in this example) and will download it automatically. You do not have to worry about losing the download when you stop it midway for the download process can be stopped and continued at will without damaging the downloaded file. By far, this is the best way to download songs free of charge.

Just remember that when you download songs free of charge using the last 2 methods above, there is no guarantee that you will also be free from infringement cases should any of these artists conduct a campaign against these type of downloading methods and you suddenly find yourself in the middle of it.

Music Memorabilia - How to Acquire Rare Music Memorabilia

About the Author
When looking for Music Memorabilia, make sure its authentic. Here is a great place to find genuine Music Autographs

A vinyl record signed by a famous rock star can be worth several thousands of dollars. If the rock star is dead, the signed vinyl record will increase in value. Collecting rare music memorabilia can be lucrative and fun. You can choose to put your music items on display in your house so that all visitors can look at your rare pieces.

If you own a bar or nightclub, you most certainly will want to have some memorabilia that have been autographed by famous musicians. For example, if you are the owner of a bar, you could put an autographed photo of a well-known rock singer up on your wall.

You may be wondering how you would go about acquiring rare music memorabilia. Most of these pieces are not for sale in retail stores. You may be able to find some rare pieces listed in the classified ads of magazines or newspapers.

Some rare pieces are auctioned off at estate sales. You will have to scrutinize the list of items that are scheduled to be auctioned at an estate sale before you go. Then you will need to be prepared to place a few bids on items until you get what you want. You should check the value of any items beforehand so you don't pay too much for any one item.

You can look at publications that are filled with information about collectible items to see if there are any listings for rare music memorabilia. You can also try to inquire at auction houses to see if any music memorabilia are scheduled to be auctioned soon.

You may get an answer or you may be dismissed. If you are hunting for rear pieces, you should know that examples of rare pieces may be vinyl records that are signed by the singers or bands. In the past, posters were used to promote concerts. Any posters that are in great condition with the band's signature are hard to find. Posters that were used to promote famous concerts are considered rare.

Before you buy any piece of rare music memorabilia, you need to know what condition it is in. You should study the acronyms that are used to indicate the condition of memorabilia. Some slight damage to any item can dramatically affect its value.

You should also try to find out from the owner if the item was on display or was stored. How it was kept will affect the way it ages. Direct sunlight will fade colors. If an item has too much dust or debris, it could start breaking down and crumbling. Acquiring rare music memorabilia that are in mint condition will be challenging.

Eternal Memories

Lovers, a photo by pacheco.pedro on Flickr.

For a moment, I thought, I could forget you,
For a moment, I thought, I could feel the restlessness in my heart,
I thought...the past, could no longer haunt me, nor hurt me!
How wrong I was!

For the past, still lingering on my mind and heart,
For the past, surrounds me day and night,
For the past, still vivid in my dreams,
How can I forget you? My beloved!

The lovable smile on your face,
The gentle caress of your embrace,
The soft touch of your fingers,
The tenderness of your body.

Your love chained within my bones,
Your face entwined within my flesh,
I clipped my wings within your beauty,
Sweet memories resides within my soul.

Oh , my beloved…my beloved…

Taylor Swift "Love Story"

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
Im standing there
On a balcony of summer air

See the lights,
See the party the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
You say hello
Little did I know

That you were romeo you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don’t go, and I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting all theres left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and i’ll be the princess
Its a love story baby just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet because we’re dead if they know
So close your eyes
Lets keep this down for a little while
Cause you were romeo I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from juliet
But you were everything to me
Taylor Swift Love Song lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/taylor-swift-love-song-lyrics.html

And I was begging you please don’t go and I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting all theres left to do is run
You be the prince and i’ll be the princess
Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but its real
Don’t be afraid we’ll make it out of this mess
Its a love story baby just say yes,

Oh, oh

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said

Romeo save me i’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don’t know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said

Marry me juliet you’ll never have to be alone
I love you and thats all I really know
I talked to your dad go pick out a white dress
Its a love story baby just say yes
Oh, oh,
We were both young when I first saw you

Easy come, easy go

But you never give
Should of known you was trouble from the first kiss,
Why were they open?

To give me all your love is all I ever asked,
Cause what you don't understand is
I’d catch a grenade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I’d jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah , yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, oh

Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya baby;
But you won't do the same

No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue beat me till I'm numb
Tell the devil I said “hey” when you get back to where you're from
Mad woman, bad woman,
That's just what you are, yeah,
You’ll smile in my face then rip the breaks out my car
Gave you all I had
And you tossed it in the trash
Bruno Mars Grenade lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/bruno-mars-grenade-lyrics.html

You tossed it in the trash, yes you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
Cause what you don't understand is
I’d catch a grenade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I’d jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah , yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, oh
I would go through all this pain,
Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya baby;
But you won't do the same

If my body was on fire, ooh
You’ d watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me you're a liar
Cause you never, ever, ever did baby...
But darling I’ll still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I’d jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah , yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, oh
I would go through all this pain,
Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya baby;
But you won't do the same.
No, you won’t do the same,
You wouldn’t do the same,
Ooh, you’ll never do the same,
No, no, no, no

My Top 10 Justin Bieber Favorite Songs

Justin Bieber - Never Say, Never

See I never thought that I could walk through fire.
I never thought that I could take the burn.
I never had the strength to take it higher,
Until I reached the point of no return.

And there's just no turning back,
When your hearts under attack,
Gonna give everything I have,
It's my destiny.

I will never say never! (I will fight)
I will fight till forever! (make it right)
Whenever you knock me down,
I will not stay on the ground.
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up up up,
And never say never.

I never thought I could feel this power.
I never thought that I could feel this free.
I'm strong enough to climb the highest tower.
And I'm fast enough to run across the sea.

And there's just no turning back,
When your hearts under attack,
Gonna give everything I have,
Cause this is my destiny.

I will never say never! (I will fight)
I will fight till forever! (make it right)
Whenever you knock me down,
I will not stay on the ground.
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up, up, up,
And never say never.

Here we go!
Guess who?
JSmith and Jb!
I gotcha lil bro.
Justin Bieber Never Say Never lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/justin-bieber-never-say-never-lyrics.html

I can handle him.
Hold up, aight?
I can handle him.

Now he's bigger than me,
Taller than me.
And he's older than me,
And stronger than me.
And his arms a little bit longer than me.
But he ain't on a JB song with me!

I be trying a chill
They be trying to side with the thrill.
No pun intended, was raised by the power of Will.

Like Luke with the force, when push comes to shove.
Like Cobe with the 4th, ice water with blood.

I gotta be the best, and yes
We're the flyest.
Like David and Goliath,
I conquered the giant.
So now I got the world in my hand,
I was born from two stars
So the moon's where I land.

I will never say never! (I will fight)
I will fight till forever! (make it right)
Whenever you knock me down,
I will not stay on the ground.
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up, up, up,
And never say never.

I will never say never! (I will fight)
I will fight till forever! (make it right)
Whenever you knock me down,
I will not stay on the ground.
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up, up, up,
And never say never.

Barong Mask. James Kuhn. Face Paint Transformation. Video a video by hawhawjames on Flickr.

My Barong has five "add on's" Watercolor paper painted with face paint makeup, cut out, and taped to my head :] Barong, a mystical creature with a long way back and curved tail, represents the affirmative, the protector of mankind, the glory of the high sun, and the favorable spirits associated with the right and white magic. The widow witch Rangda is its complement. She rules the evil spirits and witches who haunt the graveyards late at night. Her habitat is darkness and her specialties lie with the practice of black magic, the destructive force of the left. Both figures are of the same earthly substance, possessing strong magical prowess. Somewhere in a mythical past, the Barong was won over to the side of humanity, and, in the play, fights on behalf of the people against the intruding death force of Rangda.
