About
The Music of Bali Ensemble is a Herb Alpert School of Music performance course (ETHNMUS 91 and 161B) in which students play Balinese gamelan gong kebyar and learn the dances that go with it. Classes use UCLA's own complete gong kebyar set, part of a 61-piece Balinese collection acquired in 1960 and kept in the department's Gamelan Room. Recent concert programs have paired instrumental tabuh pieces with dances such as baris, a traditional Balinese war dance.
