"First, we can see music as a reminder that we are a country full of culture, and music is a part of that culture that cannot be separated, it is deeply ingrained and a part of our lives", said Adra.

Music, continued Adra, is not only entertainment but also has functions and cultural roots in Indonesia. "For example, in some areas, music must be present when a person is born, grows up, and gets married. And its presence is not just for entertainment. Indonesia has a very deep culture and is attached to music", he added.

Furthermore, the man who is also a jazz composer said that HMN can serve as a reminder that music is also a science that can be researched and explored.
