Byar Gamelan Orchestra

Filed under: Artists profiles — Peter Knight at 2:28 am on Saturday, March 24, 2007

Byar (pron. ‘bee-ar’) features Adrian Sherriff, Jeremy Dullard, Jo To and Adam King. Together, they share a passion for the music and sounds of Bali and creative music making. Byar was formed in early 2000 to perform original music and arrangements of traditional Balinese repertoire. The instrumentation of the group encompasses a variety of traditional gamelans including beleganjur (the marching gamelan), kecak (the monkey chant) and gender wayang (shadow puppet music). Byar has performed for the Asialink Centre, the Make It Up Club Port Fairy Spring Music Festival, the Water Water Festival and the La Musica series.
