Pre-Concert Lecture: Gamelan Concert

I Nyoman Windha, guest artist from Bali, presents a pre-concert lecture as part of the Virginia Martin Howard Lecture Series. Following the 7:15 lecture, Windha and Gusti Agung Ayu Warsiki will join with the U-M Gamelan Ensemble for a concert starting at 8:00pm.

I Nyoman Windha and Gusti Agung Ayu Warsiki are two of Bali’s most legendary artists. As a composer, Windha’s groundbreaking works like “Puspanjali,” “Cendrawasih,” and “Jagra Parwata” are known for their refined melodies and have become standard repertoire for gamelan ensembles in Indonesia and internationally. The pair have performed and taught throughout the world and are regularly featured at the yearly Bali Arts Festival. They will be performing with University of Michigan’s Gamelan Kyai Telaga Madu and Gamelan Madu Biru at 8:00pm.
