The Lam Museum welcomes I Gde Made Indra Sadguna, a musicology doctoral candidate specializing in Balinese gamelan, and Made Ayu Desiari, who specializes in Balinese dance. Indra will speak about the many ways of life in Bali and what it means to be Balinese from various perspectives including sociological, anthropological, religious, and performance. The presentation will include demonstrations of dancing, singing, and traditional costumes by Ayu. Attendees will be invited to participate in a hands-on activity making traditional Balinese offerings. Co-sponsored by Wake Forest’s Interdisciplinary Arts Center, this event is organized in part by Professor Elizabeth Clendinning, who also recently published a book about gamelan performance.
