Tabuh Petegak Bebarongan Uyang Uyang - Gamelan Pesel

Tabuh Petegak Bebarongan Uyang Uyang is the final track on Insitu Recordings' release of the album Nada Hidup (Notes of Life). This album is the first full-length album featuring I Wayan Arik Wirawan (Arik) and his innovative Gamelan Pesel (est. 2016). Combining elements of selonding and semar pegulingan, Arik’s unique iron-keyed instruments give the ensemble a distinct timbre. Pesel, literally to mix or mash together (Balinese), reflects how the ensemble was developed by piecing together instruments from numerous gamelan smiths (pande) over time. It also honors the ensemble’s origins—Pe[gulingan] sel[onding]. Although Gamelan Pesel performs regularly in a variety of performance settings, ranging from temple ceremonies and rituals to exhibitions of new and innovative music, the compositions presented here highlight Arik’s playful mastery of the Semar Pegulingan repertoire, both in form and technique.

Synopsis (Bahasa):

Menerawang jauh di kehidupan manusia, beragam perasaan emosional yg tumbuh dari dalam diri sengaja maupun tidak sengaja tentu dapat dinikmati, dirasakan, diresapi dan dimaknai oleh orang itu sendiri. Sebagai contoh perasaan gundah, galau, tanpa arah menjadi acuan oleh penggarap untuk membangun komposisi ini.

Synopsis (English):

From afar, the assorted emotions that grow within the body, whether or not they arise willfully, can be enjoyed, observed, absorbed or interpreted in any number of ways by each individual. The composer drew from feelings of despair, confusion, and directionlessness while developing this work.
