Friends of the gamelan presents: Legong

For its most ambitious performance yet, the Balinese Ensemble will perform 90 enchanting minutes of an array of gamelan music, finishing with a dramatic finale—a legong (“lay-gong”) storytelling dance drama. The intricate rhythms, expressive movement and dazzling costumes tell a tale of power, desire and fate. Featuring master artist I Dewa Ketut Alit Adnyana. This performance encourages guests of all ages.
