Gamelan music is a traditional musical ensemble that originated from the islands of Java and Bali in Indonesia. “Gamelan” in the Javanese language means “to strike with a mallet.” The ensemble is predominantly composed of percussive instruments. According to Indonesian mythology, an ancient king invented the gong thousands of years ago to summon the gods, and that was the beginning of gamelan. The beauty and distinctiveness of this music have been recognized worldwide, and as a result, many well-known Western composers have incorporated gamelan elements into their music.
