Gamelan Workshop



Thursday 30 September 5pm-6.30pm







Gamelan Workshop A unique opportunity to join members of the renowned Southbank Gamelan players in a fun session to experiment with the incredible array of instruments that make up a gamelan orchestra. 14-18 year olds can create their own music.

Gamelan is the ensemble of percussion instruments on which the traditional music of Java and Bali is played. Many different types of gamelan have evolved in Indonesia over more than a thousand years. The Southbank Gamelan Players specialise in music from Central Java as performed in the court cities of Surakarta and Yogyakarta.

The workshop is followed by a mesmerising performance from electronica duo, Plaid and the Southbank Gamelan Players.
