This composition is a duration of 18:36 minutes, which is using popular music cultivation, the claim takes advantage of various instruments both traditional and popular. The artist blends the form of Malay music tradition into the realm of popular music that can be said to be the type of music fusion. Fusion is a combination of jazz, rock, and blues.
This composition is accompanied by a combo band, which is used to reinforce the specific patterns of genre jazz music with fusion type. This combination of tradition and jazz fusion as an achievement into the realm of popular music, without losing the element of tradition. It can also, categorize as hybrid music.
Arrangement: the original work of composition is only moderate and playing sweet, but more dominant in the game of violin melody, melodic Gambus and also explore. And the composer tries to see the reach of the chill that is the merging of the music tradition with the type of musical fusion that is popular music. There are also irregular, progressive tempos, as well as patterns, played on up or beat. In this artwork, there are call and response, Yunisono, interrupted connection, and also overlap.

Expression: The expression of the players used is good because it very enjoys the game and feels the melody they play, with a blindfold and facial expression.
Interpretation in this composition that worked by Ilham Andrian is entitled “The Bridge of Fire” is the incorporation of popular music with music tradition Malay.
Players who play this work deeply appreciate and express the melodies they play. player playing, partially standing and partially seated, the player expressing his face and gestures according to the melody.
The work and inspiration of the work presented by Ilham Andrian are interesting. the players play a very good musical instrument and greatly adjust the tempo on each piece of work, from opening to closing.
According to my inspiration and technique work on this work that became the attraction in the show of work that title “Bridge of Fire”, the appearance of the players looks luxurious and elegant, and also the work in the show interesting. Every player in this work has good skills and plays clean, tidy, and accordingly. The idea for the title of the work of the Fire Bridge can inspire the creation of traditional music works for other composers.
This work contains some musical instruments that do not sound like a Gambus and also a Melayu drum, which sounds blocked by a musical instrument combo. In this work, there is too much of the same pattern repetition and the same melody so there is no graphics increase in this work. The concept of artistic stage performances and costumes does not reflect from the concept of the work, the fire bridge should be its red color that symbolizes fire and there is no visual bridge to reinforce the concept of the show so that the audience can easily digest and enjoy the work.
