This led Chrisye to briefly consider quitting the music industry. The resulting album, Sendiri Alone , with songs by Guruh and Junaidi Salat, included harps, oboes, cor anglais , and a string section. Known for his stiff stage persona and smooth vocals, Chrisye was critically acclaimed in Indonesia. Due in part to the popularity of the film, Puspa Indah was well received and sold well; "Galih dan Ratna" and "Gita Cinta", released as singles, were also commercially successful. In mid, with several weeks left on his contract, Chrisye's parents called from Jakarta to tell him that his brother Vicky had died of a stomach infection.
