Eastman School of Music’s World Music Series presents: Gamelan, directed by Ken Luk and I Nyoman Suadin. Monday, April 29 at 7:30 PM in Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre. The World Music Series is sponsored by a generous gift from Barbara B. Smith. This event is free and open to the public.
Gamelan at Eastman, as in Bali, is a communal effort. Members include Eastman students, faculty, and staff, as well as many members of the Rochester community. The music is learned through the oral/aural tradition without the use of notation, and therefore requires the players to work together closely for long periods of time. The result is a sense of group unity and pride as the audience hears the music and witnesses the collective efforts of the ensemble.
