about

For three-weeks of July 2013, the New Zealand School of Music’s two gamelan ensembles toured six Indonesian cities. The compositions on "Naga" were specially written for this tour.

Gamelan Padhang Moncar is a Central Javanese-style gamelan. In 1980, the Indonesian Embassy presented a pelog-mode set of instruments on permanent loan to the Victoria University of Wellington School of Music. A complementary slendro set was later purchased by the university, thus creating a complete pelog-slendro gamelan.
Director: Budi Putra

Gamelan Taniwha Jaya is a Balinese gong keybar gamelan. Commissioned by Gareth Farr in 2003, the set was made by Pak Rantes in Denpasar. Again, the name Taniwha Jaya is used to denote the group of musicians who perform within this particular gamelan ensemble.
Director: Gareth Farr
