Drums, called kendang, are double-ended and held across the lap. They lead the orchestra. In each pair, there is a higher pitched one, designated male and a lower-pitched one, female.

The kendang is considered the most difficult instrument in the gamelan. The diameter is greater at one end than the other, which creates a rounded belly-like swelling at one end. They produce a wealth of sounds, from sharp cracks to deep hums and booms.

The Balinese orchestra is called a gamelan. The Bali-Hindu religion requires the gamelan for the success of the thousands of ceremonies performed every year.

There are more than two dozen distinct types of gamelan, each with their own traditions, repertoire and social or religious functions.

The music is full of insistent rhythms and elegant patterns. There is hardly any improvisation. Traditionally musicians are male, but women are now receiving recognition, such as the women’s group in Ubud.

The post Gamelan appeared first on Murni's in Bali.

Style: Bali

Background: This is the most widespread type of gamelan in Bali. 25 to 35 musicians produce really intense, loud, lively, exciting music, with rapid changes of tempo, full of sudden starts and stops.

The mainly percussion instruments are played in unison.

There are a number of different sized instruments, metallophones that look like xylophones, called gangsas, which have bronze keys that are hit with little wooden hammers which causes bamboo resonators below the keys to vibrate. They may have 4 to 14 keys and are grouped in pairs. After the keys have been hit by the hammer in the right hand, the left hand immediately grasps the key to stop the sound merging in the next note.
