Gamelan Sekar Jaya at the Chapel of the Chimes

BALINESE INTERLOCKING METALLOPHONE
Went to Chapel of the Chimes on Saturday to check out Gamelan Sekar Jaya.  They're a Balinese damce troupe and orchestra? ensemble? not sure what to call the musicians but they're fucking cool.  Definitely some rad intricate off time signature pieces.










After the performance I explored the rest of the chapel of the chimes.  Awesome place with tons of antechambers and gardens.  Definitely worth making a trip to wander around.





























Kevin and Ian Brown in the Garden of Eternal Wisdom!
Ricardo's bout to start performing with the GAMELAN!
