Sendiri (Alone) is a 1984 album by Indonesian singer Chrisye.
Production
Eros wrote the lyrics to nine of the songs on the album.[1]
Addie MS was approached by Chrisye to be the music director. Addie, who considered Chrisye his idol, was initially uncertain if he was of the same caliber as Chrisye's previous partners. [2] Chrisye, who had been observing Addie's work with his friend Keenan Nasution as well as Vina Panduwinata's debut album Citra Biru (Blue Image; 1981) and enjoyed what he heard, insisted.[3][4]
Once Addie was convinced to work on the album, he approached the issue aggressively. Chrisye's recent trilogy had been heavily inspired by art rock, which was a departure from the original romantic pop sound that Chrisye had had with the successful albums Badai Pasti Berlalu (The Storm will Surely Pass; 1977) and Sabda Alam (Fragile Nature; 1978); Addie insisted that the new album should harken back to those earlier albums.[5] Together Chrisye and Addie planned the album in Addie's home in Tebet, South Jakarta;[6] Addie later recalled that they both overthought the issues, as both were perfectionists.[2] Addie also served as sound engineer with Irsan.[1]
Addie arranged for the musicians. Heidi Awuy played the harp, Yudhianto played the cor anglais and oboe, while Chrisye's brother-in-law Raidy Noor (who also composed the song "Windy") played the bass. Uce Haryono played the guitar, while Ian Antono played guitar. A string section, consisting of Suryati Supilin, Su Yin, Edo, Kwang Tju, and Zulkifli, was hired to provide further backing.[6]
The album's cover was designed by Chrisye's childhood friend Gauri Nasution, with photography by Tara and Firman.[1]
Style
The titular song, "Sendiri", is accompanied only by piano and cor anglais music. According to Addie, when he proposed such an arrangement Chrisye initially had difficulty believing that it could be successful;[2] at the time, no such arrangement had been used on an Indonesian song.[6]
Reissues
Sendiri was released in 1984 to commercial success. It spawned three singles: "Kisah Insani", "Sendiri", and "Lestariku" ("My Eternity").[7]
Sendiri has been reissued twice, once as a CD in 2004[8] and once as part of the Chrisye Masterpiece Trilogy Limited Edition in 2007.[9]
