APST 748 - Javanese Gamelan

HC CNDP
2 credits
In this course you will learn to perform Central Javanese gamelan (a percussion-based ensemble featuring gongs and keyed instruments). No prior musical experience is necessary. By the end of the class, however, students will have gained a basic understanding of how the music is constructed, along with cultural matter specific to its performance. Throughout the semester students will be encouraged to take turns on all the different instruments but work towards ensemble rather than individual expression for a final performance.
