Gamelan Links

A collection of links to other gamelan websites.

• The American Gamelan Institute.
• "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.
• 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.
