Gamelan Links

A collection of links to other gamelan websites.

• The American Gamelan Institute.
• Monkey C alternative gamelan - a group that plays gamelan with a twist! They fuse the music and instruments from around the world with gamelan to create a new style. The coolest thing about their site is they have virtual gamelan instruments (Macromedia Flash) that you can play.
• "Toward an appreciation of Javanese Gamelan" - A good essay on Javanese gamelan instruments, performance, and Western performance practices.
• A Javanese gamelan site - with sounds and pictures (note that the musical drone on the first page is not part of the gamelan music that is also playing).
• Bali & Beyond - a performing group that plays Balinese gamelan. The site describes both Javanese and Balinese instruments.
• Gamelan Kyai Telågå Rukmi - a page about UW-Madison's gamelan ensemble created by one of the musicians.
• Indonesian Music - an educational site with information about different forms of gamelan.
• Introduction to Javanese gamelan - a large, web-based handout from a beginning Javanese gamelan class at Wesleyan University in Connecticut. This handout has wonderful detail covering Javanese gamelan.
