Bali has long been known for its deep spirituality and extraordinary artistic heritage. The dances, dramas, puppetry and music of Bali are more than icons for the island; they are part and parcel of life—as expressions of devotion to the gods, as entertainment, and as a way of instilling cultural values on each generation. Balinese Dance, Drama & Music is a lavishly illustrated introduction to Bali's celebrated temple orchestra, the gamelan, to its ancient shadow puppet theater, and to a myriad of traditional and contemporary dances and dance-dramas that continue to enthrall locals and visitors alike. Ideal reading for visitors to the island as well as for anyone interested in Balinese culture, the book presents the history and function of each performance genre, with illustrations and photographs to aid in identification. Introductory sections discuss the way performing arts are learned in Bali and the basic Balinese values which are passed on in these forms, as well as some of the basic religious and cultural tenets that are expressed in the arts and the functions of the forms themselves. Different sections describe particular forms of performing arts, such as Gong Angklung, Legong, the Keraton dance, Wayang Kulit, and the new phenomenon of women's gamelan groups, the evolution of each and the place it has in the culture of Bali. The book is enhanced with a bibliography and discography and over 150 specially prepared watercolors of Balinese performers and performances.

A polyphonic study of Balinese aesthetics that broadens an intercultural understanding of performance. A scholar and trained performer of Balinese vocal music and dance, ethnomusicologist Edward Herbst brings unique talents to bear in this provocative book. The lessons of his Balinese masters enable him to offer fresh insight to this culture's aesthetics and cultural elements. Appropriating John Cage's effective style of "mixing theory, anecdote, context, philosophy, and humor," Herbst crafts an accessible body of work, compelling in substance and form. By merging the "Balinese concept of place-time-context with Cage's concepts of structure, method, and form, [Herbst] returns to the critical issue of what scholars and intercultural artists are doing, and 'what' is their 'object' under study." Undergraduates and scholars in fields as varied as theater studies and anthropology will find this book and companion CD (in print editions) an important resource not only for its knowledgeable treatment of Balinese culture, but as an example of a more personal and engaging style of scholarly discourse. The ebook edition includes embedded audio.

Pre-University Paper from the year 2013 in the subject Theater Studies, Dance, grade: 1,3, , language: English, abstract: At first sight it seems obvious that movements and shapes are important for characterizing the personality of a Wayang Kulit puppet in shadow theatre, in the further development of the essay it turned out to an even more complex and detailed arrangement. There is a deeper meaning behind the performance, created in specified details in the movements and shapes of Arjuna. So, in what way do the shadow puppets` shapes and movements support the characterization of the Wayang Kulit character “Arjuna” in the play “Lakon Makutha Rama - The perang”? The essay shows in which way it is possible to understand the characters of Wayang Kulit figures from an Indonesian view. Indonesians learn about the traditional meanings of the puppets’ features from the beginning of their childhood on people in the western world, however, often do not even notice the small details and what they mean, such as the shape of the puppets’ eyes and the extraordinary hairstyle. Arjuna’s features regarding his outward appearance as well as his behavior represent perfection. In order to reflect on his specific abilities, attitudes as a fighter and royal figure, it is sensible to take a closer look at the play “Lakon Makutha Rama - The perang”. In the further development, it turned out to make most sense to analyze a battle scene in which Arjuna focuses on his enemy and where the precision of his movements play an essential role for the understanding of the personality of the characters on the one side and the meaning of the entire play on the other side. Thereby, Arjuna’s refined strategy becomes evident and a lot of movements are needed to finally win the fight, which highlight his characteristics as well as the shapes of his shadow.

Music in Bali is one of several case-study volumes that can be used along with Thinking Musically, the core book in the Global Music Series. Thinking Musically incorporates music from many diverse cultures and establishes the framework for exploring the practice of music around the world. It sets the stage for an array of case-study volumes, each of which focuses on a single area of the world. Each case study uses the contemporary musical situation as a point of departure, covering historical information and traditions as they relate to the present. Visit www.oup.com/us/globalmusic for a list of case studies in the Global Music Series. The website also includes instructional materials to accompany each study. Music in Bali introduces the ensemble tradition of Balinese music, reflecting cooperative aspects of the island's social organization. Drawing on many years of study with Balinese performers in the United States and extensive fieldwork in Bali, author Lisa Gold presents contemporary Balinese performance within its cultural and historical context, linking Bali's rich past to its current role in modern, globalized society. She illustrates how new compositions borrow material from earlier traditions while also allowing for individual expression and innovation in vibrant present-day culture. By describing various performances--from a temple ceremony, to a shadow puppet performance, to a masked dance drama--Music in Bali surveys a wide range of performance contexts, from the highly sacred to the secular. It looks at the interconnected layers of the Balinese musical tradition, showing how the island's music, dance, theater, and ritual are intertwined. Music in Bali is enhanced by eyewitness accounts of local performances, interviews with key performers, and vivid illustrations. Packaged with a 70-minute CD containing examples of the music discussed in the book, it features guided listening and hands-on activities that encourage readers to engage actively and critically with the music.
