Info about Dikir Barat
Dikir Barat is a form of singing. The Origins of Dikir Barat is debatable, but most would accept it to be from Southen Thailand or Northen Penisula Malaysia.
In an agricultural society,the dikir barat was performed as a ritual or celebration of the rice harvest season.Today, dikir barat performances are mainly for entertainment but competitions between Dikir Barat groups are also held.
Currently,the state of Malaysia which is Kelantan and Terengganu are perhaps two places where Dikir Barat is still performed actively on many levels.
