A green horn.... Recently formed; 2nd September 2016. We delivered 2 sets of Angklung Pak Radja and gave an hour and a half demo to 5 very committed teachers; Puan Hjh.

Ever committed to do the best, the Angklung Committee set another date for practise; 23rd at 8;30pm in the school Physic Lab and 24th September at the school Hall. Throughout the practise the teachers lovingly distributed food and drinks for the students who came with much anticipation. I salute you teachers!

THE REHEARSAL

26th September 2016, a rehearsal was held for the Hari Anugerah Kokurikulum dan Sukan SMKDB. With anxious face, the students took their allocated position at the stage. When they struck their first few bars on the 'Getaran Jiwa' all the working committee for the events who were present at the hall, stopped abruptly at whatever there were working busily on, to lend their ears. Their final piece 'Can't Help Falling in Love' in a lively fast beat was loudly applauded. This was enough to warm the hearts of all who were involved in making it possible.

THE DEBUT

I must say that I am really impress of the angklungist of SMK Dr. Burhanuddin. Remarkable! Within 3 weeks they successful gave a clean performance for the first time in front of the VIPs of Perak state, the alumni, school society, teachers, parents and their fellow schoolmates. As expected, their first few struck on the notes of 'Getaran Jiwa' was overwhelmingly welcomed with deafening applaud from the audience. Likewise the applaud was loud for the second piece 'Can't Help Falling In Love' in fast lively tempo was welcomed by the angklungist with wide grins on their face. Pak Radja and I are content. Needless to say the students deserve every credit for their hardwork and sacrifices. Yet, behind their successful debut is a line of teachers who are extraordinary.
Bravo Puan Hjh. Nurolizam bte Bidin,(the PK 1), Puan Hjh. Roslina bte Abu Bakar, Puan Hani Sutina bte Hanapiah, Cik Nadzirah bte Md. Zawawi and Cik Zuridah bte Ahmad. Another salute to you all!

The line of 'Orang Kuat'

Happy faces from us.

Until we meet again on the next performance, good bye for now...

SM Dr. Burhanuddin Taiping Angklung Group

It is our greatest pleasure indeed to come to SM Dr. Burhanuddin, Taiping. When I first set eyes on this school, I felt strongly drawn to it.

After finalizing the family's decision to move and settle at my husband's hometown in Taiping, the utmost search in many aspects began. But one of the most crucial aspect was the search for the 'right' school for my boys. Back in 2014, we spent many months in doing so. The need to find the 'right' secondary school for Ejjy is essential as he will only have a year to prepare for his upcoming PT3 and a couple more years after that for his SPM exam. Therefore to get the 'right' secondary school to accommodate my second son had become my top priority then.

Seeking advice from the locals, they gave me a list of best secondary schools around Taiping. All with impressive track of records to be proud of. Determine to enrol my son to the 'right' school that he will be comfortable and at ease, we visited and observed each and every school from afar. On our first visit to SMDB, my mind was already made up. And my husband's and Ejjy's thought alike. I am thankful that we have done so owing to the fact that Ejjy's grade has tremendously improve and he is very actively involve in his co-curricular activities. Thank you SMDB for having him there. May he continues to flourish for us!

Thank you SMDB for giving Ejjy's opportunity to represent the school English Debate team 2016

The dream that one day SMDB will have its own Angklung Group was first expressed by the school former Principal, Tn. Hj. Aminudin Bin Mohd Nor

Today, the dream came true. Puan Nurolizam ( PK 1 ) made it possible through her hardwork and perseverance, who has been teaching in SMDB for more than 30 years! Thanks to her close connection to her former students, who are most of them are listed to be among the successful and influential figures in Perak community. For the love of their former school and the enduring respect to their teacher without much hesitation help out in funding for the Angklung Group of SMDB.

What a spirit!
