		Ancient ceremonial music played on the gamelan gong (usually a gong kebyar nowadays) is complemented by the plaintive tones of a gamelan angklung across the courtyard and preferably also by a rare, sacred ensemble with specific associations to cremation rituals, the gamelan gambang (see Schaareman 1980).
		Next comes the gamelan angklung (if there is one), the tower, the beleganjur group, and the remainder of the crowd; in grand cremations, a pair of gendèr wayang (bronze-keyed metallophones that are mainly identified with Balinese shadow-puppetry performances) may be played from opposite sides of the base of the tower as it is carried along.
		Alternatively, a beleganjur arrangement of a tabuh telu-form piece from the gamelan gong repertoire may be performed, in which case the role of the ponggang is transformed from its usual ostinato nuclear melody function in gilak beleganjur to that of a lower melodic extension of the reyong part.

		In our description of gamelan music it will be helpful to divide the instruments of the ensemble into two groups that play the core melody or some sort of variation on it, and those that describe the melody's form or shape.
		If the gamelan has one, a second large gong, somewhat smaller than the main one but still weighty enough in sound to contribute substantial power, is used to mark the middle of the cycle.
		Adapted from the repertoire of the gamelan gong gede of the courts, these pieces are distinguished by the presence of the trompong and the boom of kendang played with mallets; they are also accompanied by the constant clash of the giant cengceng kopyak.
