MAKUKUHAN
Great Gamelan

Traditional Indonesian music and dance


This is about as far away from the Western musical tradition as it gets. Makukuhan is a mini gamelan orchestra, which brings that distinctive and stirring Indonesian sound to life. Using traditional masked dance and instruments like the kendang, angklung and rebana, Makukhan is the perfect window into the exotic music of our northern neighbours. Three outstanding Indonesian musicians explore a number of styles from Bali and Java, with a focus on melodic percussion and rhythm. You don’t need to go all the way to Java for a slice of Indonesian culture; Makukuhan brings it to your school.
