Balinese gamelan melodies are usually split between two or more performers/instruments, because hitting metal with a mallet & then dampening it with your knuckle makes it pretty hard to play fast. That's why the development of Kebyar, the extra-fast & flashy style that started up at the beginning of the 1900s, was so popular across Indonesia and beyond. These 78s, complete with a ton of hiss, were the first recordings to make it off the archipelago. Tracklisting: Kebyar Ding Parts I-VI, Curik Ngaras 8 Kembang Lengkuas, Tabuh Telu 10 Buaya Mangap, Gending Sesulingan, Gending Longgor Parts I-IV, Tabuh Legod Bawa 17 Tabuh Cacelantungan, Kebyar 19 Tabuh Panyelah 20 Tabuh Gari.
