Featured guests Wakidi Dwidjomartono and Heni Savitri join the Cornell Gamelan Ensemble and leading members of the larger American gamelan community for a klenengan, a long and relatively informal gathering that best accommodates the temporal expansiveness of Javanese gamelan music. Audience members are free to come and go, to enjoy snacks, and even to chat quietly with one another. The relaxed atmosphere fosters a mood in which focused concentration is tempered by an equal sense of calm and comfort. Starting no later than 11am and ending no earlier than 4pm, with a hands-on workshop during a lunch break at 1pm.
