INTRODUCTION
Instilling moral values as educational efforts, regarding building the attitude that will become the foundation of human behavior, is not an instant activity that its outcome quality can be soon apparent, but it is still possible. The challenging and indirect educational outcome relating to the foundation of building behavior, no doubt, causes the notion of accepting and agreeing to instill moral values in its praxis to become minimal. Because it grounds on the rationalization that establishing moral attitude option which must be given to children is the achievement of a long journey.
Since the beginning of the birth of humankind, from ancient times until modern times today, civilization and culture grow and develop to provide direction on life awareness and goals, whether it be a pleasure, victory to happiness in tranquility-were open becoming options, constantly changing. Because life is always like it started yesterday, lived now to meet tomorrow. Education is as old as life itself and teaches noble attainment rather than satisfying animal desires; therefore, morals are taught in different ethnic views and sacred impressions.
In ancient life tradition, it is said that the chanting of tones and shrill voices has been used as a ritual offering to the worshiped. Therefore, singing and chanting show primeval traces as an educational tool in delivering humankind's survival to recognize their life purposes. Except it becomes the expressive part in religious ritual in the ancient times, becomes war encouragement until mischief act conducted to a fellow human. As an instrument, singing and music that accompanies when injustice reigns are not sinful, but who is the mastermind behind that wickedness. Hence, throughout political history, numerous songs or anthems were forbidden by the authority in the past.
For education, if the education itself in its station as an instrument is not free of value, it is bound by the noble purpose of celebrating life and humanity. If in the implicit meaning of education contains the fundamental noble values which becomes the life of humankind, so, the chanting of the song from wherever it comes and in whatever language it sounds, it is moral teaching, guidance to do good deeds, it has to be preserved as a cultural product protecting civilization.

A. The focus of Problems and Research Objectives
Based on the above background, the focus of problems in this research is formulated in the following statement: 1. How can the infusing of moral value concepts be carried out in learning Sundanese Pupuh songs on Elementary Schools students in West Java? 2. How the Art Matic-Implication of Sundanese Pupuh song in Building Moral Values toward Elementary Schools students in West Java?

LITERATURE
In the ethnic of Javanese, Sundanese, Balinese, or other Archipelago ethnical units, people inherit various art cultures whose signs and traces still live. However, it is starting to fade compared to the enlivening and celebrated art born out from the globalization supported by information technology modernization and post-modernism in the 21 st century. Among the traditional arts that still impressively attract global attention, including in the country, are various forms of art that are exotically marked the opposite of modern product and activity performances. The traditional art genres mark the Archipelago Diversity in Java and Bali, including in West Java land, Sunda culture. In the context of educational interests, primarily related to shaping Nation's Character Building, one of which is vocal art. Why is Vocal art the choice? The art of movement and the combination between them certainly has the same strong potential, but basically, the vocal art becomes the first tool in touching the literary disclosure. Undoubtedly, literature as the collective ideal of humanity is a place for noble thoughts, values of life, maintaining civilization, and human ideals to be more demanding of the accuracy of chanting songs than the splendor of singing followed by movement of the game.
The name Pupuh itself, although it was local with the characteristics of content, type, and its meaning, was somehow called the same as in Sundanese, Javanese, and Balinese. It is one of the traditional songs known by the elders and teachers in those areas, and it functions as a medium for learning and education in childcare. Moreover, the form of singing combined in the game certainly has a strengthening aspect of being achieved in the totality of education for children, but it was not on the primary elements, e.g., mental building as the fundamental psychological aspects. This study wants to observe in phenomenological how the traditional song, which is called as Pupuh song, with its characteristics properties, can be traced in providing meaning to build child's moral and value attitude existed in the developmental phase during Elementary School. That as far as the writers' concern, it has not been found a profound comparative study yet, but it can be taken quickly to believe; that the song or anthem in traditional tone, whether it be serious or humorous as a widely-open activity for kids, whatever the place is it has a meaning as a learning activity, fulfill their developmental requirements. Hence, singing is a sole activity, and as a part of the game of its characteristics and content, as an art product which cannot be separated from its mind's expression, good feelings, and hopes that philosophically reflect the noble beliefs of the supporting community. If the art were stored in the traces and local language, the properties would become a cultural heritage that must be protected as a national root culture and preserved at least as an appreciation media for future generations born in the different lingual environment and atmosphere. Thus, how far the extent of the traditional values can still be meaningful, at least in maintaining synergy of the civilization and culture on the goal of celebrating life and humanity from the threat of being disoriented by the deception of artificial progress, has become an institutional task and an educational, cultural environment that is obliged to carry out its role.
As a knowledge, the anthem called as Pupuh, which discussed in this research, explains: In which as it is in the repertoire of Javanese and Balinese literature, of the 17 Pupuh known, Sundanese language and literature can be distinguished among them, in some Sekar Ageung and Sekar Alit categories. The Sekar Ageung genre that is KSAD is widely known and selected by teachers and schools taught to Elementary School students. In comparison, the remaining 13 genres, including Sekar Alit, were only common knowledge because not all teachers can apply in their lesson. For this reason, as an overview of the overall knowledge for 17 Pupuh songs as seen from the characters content and their form, it is necessary to reveal them in the following

RESEARCH METHOD
The methodology used in this study is called ethno-pedagogic because it tries to observe educational praxis from the perspective of system values and local wisdom that existed within the Sundanese ethnic, cultural tradition. Therefore, the semiotics approach and semantics analysis inside it becomes the option to describe numerous signifiers and the depth of meaning of product instrumentation and cultural arts activities in learning praxis according to the elementary school curriculum. The rest, as the medium is the message of traditional singing, especially the Sundanese Pupuh Song, will be explored as the main instrument (test tool) for fostering the concept of moral values contained in verbal messages content sung in vocal activities, both personal and collective, along with its repetition allowing it to be done almost without border (longitudinal).

RESULTS AND ANALYSIS Instilling Moral Values Concept in Learning Sundanese Pupuh Song
As explained by Elyzabet F.Lyn (1974) in Djahiri Kosasih (1981) Hamid, S Ichas (1984) that "Values and morals cannot be taught, but in other ways." So, it is necessary to approach or learn methods that can resonate with children's affective potential. Because values and morals, although they can understand it conceptually, they still cannot choose to determine their attitude when there is no pre-condition, spiritual environment shaping them. Hence, using the selected media and describing life itself in a story, both delivered orally and visually, can provide a more concrete example than other methods, but it is still exciting, and it is expected to move children's hearts as the pupil. Moreover, other media regarded as enjoying the atmosphere and learning activities are song and anthem.
Utilizing Song and Anthem as a learning medium besides attractive and enjoying provides expressive space for students' affective potential when the child does learning activity, a standard or reference they must follow as in scales and harmonies. Its actualization is an area of artistic intelligence. As a result, the song and anthem also consist of verbal expression, meaning, and significance, both direct and hidden.
For children, verbal utterance with direct meaning in a traditional game song surely more appropriate to be used as a learning medium than symbolism approach. However, a song full of cheerful movements-separated from its content and words-is truly accommodative for children, and seeing from their requirement to play and learn that are motorized and laughter in happy songs together are thematic.
The song genre in which its verbal expression is direct is found in Pupuh songs, particularly the Pupuh, which is designed and regarded as appropriate for children's education. Out of 17 Pupuh types referred to as the learning media in Elementary School were known as the minimal KSAD (Kinanti, Sinom, Asmarandana, and Dangdanggula) abbreviation; thus, it depends on teacher's readiness, it is also possible by adding other types that are considered appropriate to the child's world, such as Pucung, Balakbak, Magatru, pangkur. However, it can also be understood that, as occurred in the past, if a teacher in Elementary School make limitation and selection because the learning outcome was not the quantity but rather the intensity. It is just that the purpose perspective for developing civics moral values sees it more in the moral message content than as many as 17 Pupuh types.
Nevertheless, the Pupuh song is categorized as a simple hymn if observed based on the lyric content and language used, easily understandable content for children. However, to sing Pupung anthem is not easy for everyone, either for those who are beginning to study or adults, because there is Wirahma's song like the reference; even though it is not easy, it gets exciting when the student can merge in tune with an excellent vocal voice. As a learning medium, the learning outcome target to study Pupuh was not to show off their skill though there is the competition to accommodate their art interest. The objective was instead to introduce local culture variety, and particularly moral values message in the song. Because by repeatedly singing both personally and collectively, the message's content and moral guidance are deposited slowly and repeatedly.
In the following example, it is shown some Pupuh type which can be taken as Medium is Message fulfilling content and scope of learning regarding Civics Moral Values development which potentially can be instilled toward students in Elementary School. The symbol of R.I contains a profound meaning, if it were practiced sincerely, the union would be created, it is not only just by saying, or lip service, Bhineka Tunggal Ika, it means to be united, all the children of the nation even though they are different, but from blood, one origin One language, one nation, the Indonesian language. One nation, one Archipelago, Nusa, the Archipelago. Each ethnic unit from a different region unite in joy and suffering Unity Symbol
