World Routes in Java
Lucy Duran made a two-week exploration of the Indonesian gamelan. In the first week she traveled east through Java from Jakarta to Solo, discovering the lively indigenous music of the south coast, the island's cultural centre that is Bandung, and the seat of Java's royal court at the Mankunagaran Palace. She heard the sweet sound of the suling flute, a child bamboo orchestra hooked on Elvis, and the ethereal sound of the royal gamelan complete with wild swallows.

The following week in Indonesia took Lucy to Bali and you can find this show in the list of audio archive to the right.
