This is our third update.
The Balinese Orchestra sets are now completed and ready. They are correctly accompanied by the appropriate gong ageng gayor types and turtle ceng-ceng. Sometimes the saron was substituted for the gender in gamelan wayang orchestras. Note the re-numbering of the Balinese orchestras into 5 distinct sets. The Series Bali pages have been updated to include these new pictures of the various instruments.
