	Gamelan gong kebyar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gamelan gong kebyar is a modern style or genre of Balinese gamelan music.
		Kebyar means "the process of flowering", and refers to the explosive changes in tempo and dynamics characteristic of the style.
		Gong kebyar music is based on a five-tone scale called pelog selisir (tones 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 of the 7-tone pelog scale), and is characterized by brilliant sounds, syncopations, sudden and gradual changes in sound colour, dynamics, tempo and articulation, and complex, complementary interlocking melodic and rhythmic patterns called kotekan.

		Kebyar is a populist form born, ironically enough, out of the Dutch supplanting of the Balinese court.
		Accounts as to the actual creation of kebyar are sketchy, but the most oft repeated is the story of two gamelan groups engaging in a competition to the pleasure and amazement of thousand of gathered villagers.
		Kebyar has continued to increase in popularity in the brief 90 years since its inception and with regular public competitions the genre has spurred groups into increasingly faster tempos and stylistic flourishes as well as challenging young composers to be constantly vigilant and innovative in creating new works.

	World Arbiter Liner Notes
		The word kebyar is interpreted in several ways: as "lightning," "the bursting open of a flower," or "explosive." It describes the sudden bursts of sound, shifts in tempo, rapid stops and a compositional style which allowed for a rapidly changing succession of musical themes within a single piece.
		Kebyar Duduk interpreted into dance a new musical form which was a roller coaster of melody and rhythm.
		Kebyar compositions most frequently conclude with a pengawak and pengecét, which derive their themes from the classical repertoire of légong, gambuh, or gamelan gong gedé.

		Its publication in the year 2000 is apt considering that Kebyar evolved around 1915 from its early roots in northern Bali, and over the course of the twentieth century it became the island's pre-eminent musical genre.
		Yet, despite the fact that the Kebyar gamelan (percussion orchestra) and the Kebyar style of composition have attained such importance, they are underrepresented in a literature that has tended to focus more on older musical genres.
		Kebyar's frequent stylistic and melodic quotations from older gamelan genres also provide a great deal of musical interest, particularly to informed Balinese audiences.

		Gong Kebyar (kebyar means sudden outburst) was influenced not only the many gamelan traditions of Bali and Jawa but also the influence of western music introduced by the Dutch.
		Each member of a pair is tuned slightly differently (for example, the jegogan pair may differ by a three quarter tone) in order to create the shimmering sound characteristic of Gamelan Bali.
		The other unique characteristic of Gong Kebyar worthy of note is the large dynamic range in both volume and frequency of the ensemble.

	Kebyar Duduk
		He had to squat behind the instrument to be able to play it, and this suggested that the entire composition might performed in a sitting (duduk) position.
		He took the costume from Kebyar Legong, but to move in a squatting position he had to hold up the train with one hand as he moved and this became the hallmark of the dance.
		The mood of Kebyar Duduk is determined by the music, and the dancer works in close co-ordination with the entire gamelan to interpret its shifting colors.

		The gamelan gong kebyar is Bali's modern concert orchestra of about thirty musicians, playing a variety of bronze metallophones, tuned gongs, drums and flutes.
		Now, after nine decades of development, the raw brilliance and flash of kebyar music is complemented by sophisticated formal designs, a wide range of orchestral color and the astonishing musicianship of present-day gamelan players.
		Combined with the powerful resources of modern kebyar style, this special gamelan has inspired the Çudamani group to create and re-create a wide range of music and dance works—from Taruna Jaya, an explosive early 20th century dance, to Geregel, a seven-tone instrumental work that has opened entirely new vistas in contemporary gamelan music.
