WEATHER UPDATE • Due to forecasted conditions and the effects the extreme cold could have on the gamelan instruments, this event has been postponed to a later date. We look forward to welcoming our friends onto campus at another time. Ticketholders have been contacted directly by the Holtschneider Performance Center Box OFfice.  

The Friends of the Gamelan invite you to a performance from their Javanese Ensemble to introduce the community to the joy of playing gamelan music and experience the rich musical heritage of Indonesia. 

Incorporated in 1980, today, Friends of the Gamelan includes two ensembles with individually distinct sets of gamelan instruments, each respectively dedicated to Javanese and Balinese gamelan music and dance. The organization provides quality instruction weekly, performs world-class concerts, and presents engaging hands-on workshops. Learn more at https://www.chicagogamelan.org/
