Çudamani: Gamelan and Dance of Bali
WATER - TIRTA (world premiere)
Internationally hailed as one of Indonesia’s most forward-thinking ensembles, Çudamani is acclaimed for superb artistry in the classical Balinese traditions and in vibrant original productions. Their newest work, WATER-TIRTA, rejoices in the myriad ways the Balinese celebrate, venerate, and protect the life-giving cycle of water, so central to the well-being of all living things. With layers of shimmering sound ̶ the punctuation of deep bronze gongs, the stunning interlocking percussion of the gangsa, the elaborated delicacy of voice and flute ̶ and the arresting theatricality of Balinese character-dance, Çudamani conjures a transcendent experience.
Admission: Free for Lafayette students with I.D.; $10 Lafayette staff and faculty; $6 other students and youth; $27 general public.
