GAMELAN
The Wake Forest University gamelan (percussion orchestra), Gamelan Giri Murti, performs traditional, neotraditional, and avant garde music, dance, and theater rooted in both sacred and secular traditions of Bali, Indonesia. The ensemble is open to all Wake Forest students, faculty, and staff, as well as the greater Winston-Salem community--no prior experience required, but curious minds encouraged.
This semester, Gamelan Giri Murti will perform a set of new and traditional compositions for gamelan angklung kebyar, including social dance Joged Bumbung and the Baris Tombak warrior dance with spears.
