“An introduction to Sundanese gamelan for Javaphiles” Henry Spiller - Gamelan Masters Lecture #21

Nusantara Arts Gamelan Masters Guest Lecture #21
Henry Spiller presents a broad, general overview of Sundanese music-especially gamelan music-customized for those with a North American’s practical acquaintance with Javanese gamelan. The talk will leverage the similarities between Javanese and Sundanese musics to highlight Sundanese music’s unique qualities in terms of instrumentation, playing styles, and repertoire
Every Sunday Nusantara Arts is inviting gamelan masters and related scholars to join us for guest lectures on various topics related to Javanese gamelan music making and Indonesian culture. These lectures are designed to be enjoyed by anyone in the world with an interest in gamelan. Participants will have a deeper appreciation and learn more about the culture and practice of gamelan. We are doing this as a way for the gamelan community to connect, learn, and continue our appreciation during this covid crisis. Anyone is welcome.
All previous lectures can be found streaming at www.nusantaraarts.com
One of Nusantara Arts core values is “Preservation”. This Covid epidemic is taking a toll on our musical mentors and cultural beacons on Java who are the ever lit flame that keep the gamelan culture alive. We are taking donations during the lecture series to give to Javanese musicians who are currently facing serious economic hardships due to COVID. A suggested donation of $10 per lecture will be greatly appreciated and remembered by these musicians
Nusantara Arts Gamelan Masters Guest Lecture Series donations are distributed to the most needy musicians and singers in the greater Solo area, including Karanganyar, Klaten, Wonogiri, Sukoharjo, Sragen, and Boyolali.", who tend to be musicians with no official governmental status. We have Raised over $5,000 for this effort and have plans for more distribution in the near future. If you havn't donated yet or wish to make an additional contribution please visit our website:
