Once around the island of Java? Ever hear the music typical of the island of Java? For those of you who ever came, would ever listen to gamelan music performances.
Gamelan is a musical ensemble that usually highlight metallophone, xylophone, drums, and gongs. Gamelan musical instruments are not only coming from Java, but also from the island of Bali.
Between Javanese Gamelan and Balinese Gamelan, there is a difference. However, I do not know the name of the tool one by one. But when heard, there are differences in the sound produced from Javanese Gamelan and Balinese gamelan.
In general, Javanese gamelan is used to accompany a puppet show. While the Balinese gamelan is used to accompany dancers.
