The UBC Balinese Gamelan Ensemble performs the rich and dynamic Gamelan music of Bali Indonesia.

The ensemble is made up of a beautiful symphony of gongs, drums, and other percussion, and the music is full of syncopated melodies, layered textures, and unexpected shifts and transitions.

The UBC Balinese Gamelan ensemble may perform outside on the plaza, weather permitting.
