Join the Cambridge Youth Gamelan as we celebrate the end of our 5th anniversary season! In this performance, you will hear traditional Balinese music performed on the gamelan gong kebyar, one of the most popular ensembles in Bali. You will learn how the music is arranged in complex rhythmic and melodic layers and how the musicians learn to play. At the end of the performance, audience members will be invited onto the stage to try out the instruments and learn a short piece of music together.
