7TH APRIL 2010 UPDATE

 

We have just completed another batch of Javanese Kraton musicians painted specifically to represent the Kraton Yogya. This may be contrasted with the Javanese Kraton musicians painted specifically to represent the Kraton Solo.

SERIES B JAVANESE KRATON

 

Set B3b Javanese Kraton Gender Wayang Orchestra can now be seen painted with musicians in Kraton Yogya costumes. 

 

The gamelan orchestras come with a fixed number of musicians playing numerous musical instruments. We have completed another batch of Javanese Kraton drummers. Note the amount of variation in pieces and painting that is introduced for just one type of musician. This guarantees the uniqueness of each set.

JAVANESE KRATON DRUMMERS WITH LARGE AND SMALL KENDHANG

 

Some of these drummers have had two kendhang (drum) attached directly. This allows not only for the correct representation of a pair of kendhang drums for each type of gamelan orchestra, but also for the substitution of another musician in place of the second kendhang drummer in some gamelan sets.
