Ritual Music from Bali IV - The gong gĕdé from Pamĕcutan




Ritual Music from Bali IV - The gong gĕdé from Pamĕcutan
An Anthology of South-East Asian Music
Recordings by Danker H. Shaareman, Barni Palm and Monika Nadoliny in 1984
Bärenreiter • Musicaphon - BM 30 SL 2574 - P.1986?




Side A

No. 1 Tabuh Ĕmpat 21'39


Side B

No. 2 Rejang 10'06
No. 3 Tabuh Tĕlu 8'44
No. 4 Baris 8'38





So this is the fourth and last of the Ritual Music from Bali, this is also one of the volumes we received recently at  a Luobaniyan outpost and it is a true delight, and another of the precious hidden gems. The music is as brilliant as the recording. It must count as a good deed indeed to share this! I have no idea how many merits towards entry in the Western Paradise this will accumulate but I am sure that they must be many!

So many heartfelt thanks to the contributor and bless your ears! Hope you enjoy this whether  you be native or naturalised or even unaware Luobaniyan. I'd say it is safe for every sentient being to be reached by this musical bliss!

Here is the third volume of Ritual Music from Bali. One of those that I knew existed but never could locate. I am very happy for the help extended to make it possible to post here. The high quality of the photos and the accurate rips is truly a delight to behold. Thank you very much! Also the next two records in this series from vol IV of the Ritual Music and another with contemporary gamelan from Bali came from the same helping friend in music. We are all indebted and still hope for more help from anyone who sees a hole in the Luobaniyan archives and would rather make it whole. Hope you enjoy the music!
