First of two illustrated talks by John and Supianti Coast
The Indonesian word for an orchestra is gamelan but in Bali it is usually called a gong. Mr. and Mrs. Coast describe a typical village gong with its metallophones, reyong, cymbals, and drums, and show how new compositions for it are built up using traditional tunes.
