Gamelan Sari Pandhawa.
Traditional music of Central Java (Indonesia. One of the world's most ancient and sophisticated musical traditions,gamelan creates a multi-layered tapestry of beautifully interlocking melodies and rhythms. From the soft, sultry sound of bamboo flutes, xylophones, and fiddles to the bright, flashy music of bronze keyboard instruments and gongs, Javanese gamelan music conjures an intimately exotic atmosphere and a thrilling concert experience.
Since 1996, Gamelan Sari Pandhawa has performed in concert and taught
classes throughout the area, and seeks to increase our community's
understanding of traditional Javanese cultural arts, music and puppetry.
