Learning Gamelan with Melbourne Community Gamelan


This video was taken by my hubby. Just a short one to captured the moment with I and the Melbourne Community Gamelan were having our performance at the Preston Library, Melbourne, on Wednesday evening, 28 May 2014. 

I adore Helen Pausacker, as the female dalang. She is so good and very creative and funny! For the first time I can enjoy watching shadow puppet stories and performance. Not because I am the one playing the background gamelan music, but perhaps because the story was in English, and not in Javanese as it used to be :))

More on the performance can be seen at the Indonesian Online Media in Melbourne here.
