In certain areas, Gending Samirah has its own distinctive features, Gending from Lor Brantas (Surabayan area) is different from that of Kidul Brantas (Malang area) in terms of its vocals. Gending Samirah vocal from Kidul Brantas seems variative. Gending Samirah vocal Karawitan Among Rasa Malang is usually initiated with macapat (sung poetry) and then followed with songs sung by Sinden (singer singing with gamelan) and gerong (song sung in the chorus). The vocal of in Gending Samirah has its own characteristics as it usually talks about a figure and delivers messages for the continuity to preserve the local wisdom.

This is descriptive qualitative research that employed the ethnographic method. The semiotic approach was employed to analyze the meaning of lyrics in Gending Samirah, then the results were used to describe the denotative, connotative, and mythical meanings of the lyrics.
