The title song Rajah Pangjajap Played by Aki Dadan

Hallo steemian this time I will write about one of Sundanese art from Cianjur region of west java named Mamaos Cianjuran
Mamaos Cianjuran, is a Sundanese vocal art accompanied by Kacapi Indung musical instrument, Kacapi Rincik, Suling. Mamaos Cianjuran full of deep meaning, with the accompaniment of harp and flute so very beautiful in hearing.
Art Mamaos was created by
Dalem (Regent) Cianjur R.A.A Kusumaningrat (1834-1864).
()
Dalem Kusumaningrat often creates Mamaos tembang in a building called Pancaniti building. Therefore Dalem Kusumaningrat is known by the crowd as Dalem Pancaniti.
In its development, during the Regent of Prawiradiredja II (from 1986 to 1910) Mamaos art evolved to other areas outside Cianjur. This is the service of Raden Etje Madjid Natawiredja who is often invited to teach Mamaos to areas in Priyangan, including the area of ​​Bandung when he was invited to teach Mamaos by the Regent of RAA Bandung. Martanagara and RAA. Wiranatakoesoemah (1893-1942)
When Mamaos spread to other areas outside Cianjur, the people there called Mamaos art entitled Art of Tembang Cianjuran, because this art originated from Cianjur. Since then Mamaos art is better known as Cianjuran Tembang Art, or better known as Cianjuran art.
