OverviewGamelan music is becoming increasingly popular in the West. This introduction provides the historical background to a traditional Javanese instrument that was virtually unknown outside Indonesia until 70 years ago. In addition to showing how the instruments are made, tuned and played, the book examines the structure of the music and its notation, and the place of the gamelan in Javanese society. Jennifer Lindsay also provides lists of key recordings and places in Java where visitors can hear gamelan music played live.
