Gamelan Ensemble

1.0 credits

The Eastman Gamelan Ensemble performs traditional and modern Balinese music, as well as new compositions in the gamelan gong kebyar style. Working with director I Nyoman Suadin students will be taught through the aural tradition without the aide of notation and experience how this method requires players to work together closely in order to perform as one a unified whole. Weekly rehearsals prepare students for performances throughout the year including the annual World Music Series concert. Open to all students regardless of major. May be repeated for credit.
