Gamelan of Central Java Vol.1
Classical Gendings

FY8041

Classical Gendings is the first in a series of CDs which feature the finest expression of the traditional music of Java (Indonesia), a musical culture whose rich and complex history dates back more than a thousand years and which first began to fascinate Western ears at the end of the 19th century. During the 1889 Paris Universal Exhibition Debussy was profoundly struck by the variety of polyphonies produced by a gamelan orchestra who were performing in the Indonesian pavilion, leading him to write that \"Javanese music demonstrates a use of counterpoint beside which that of Palestrina seems mere child\'s play.
The three pieces featured on this album form part of the repertoire of the central region of the island, in particular that of the Surakarta (also known as the Solo) court. This music is quite different from that played in the court of Yogyakarta and even more so from the style typical of the Western Sundanese region. Competition between these styles has always been fierce, yielding a wide variety of sounds. In general musicologists, as well as stressing the difference in the type of instruments used, have tended to define the music of Yogyakarta as harsher and noisier sounding while that of Surakarta, considered more refined, favours softer atmospheres.
