Traditional Javanese theater exists in various forms, featuring either puppets or dancers, and music from gamelan percussion ensembles. Musicians set the tone for each scene, softening or intensifying as they accompany the Dalang (story narrator) and Waranggana (chorus).This recording presents two styles of classic Indonesian musical theater rarely performed today. "Langen mandra wanara" ("Song of the Monkeys") is a large-scale dance-drama based on a segment of the Hindu Ramayana epic. "Langen driyan"("Diversion of the Heart"), performed with an all-female cast, illustrates a centuries-old Hindu-Javanese legend of a royal battle. Both pieces use the pentatonic slendro tuning system, recognized as more dynamic and dramatic for theater, and both are considered unique to Java in the diverse world of Indonesian music.This album is part of the UNESCO Collection of Traditional Music. More than 125 albums are being released by Smithsonian Folkways Recordings to make the series publicly available again, including more than a dozen never-released albums of musical traditions from around the globe.

Otter
Format: Board book
This little otter was for a baby shower. She was so cute. I listened to the music and it was so soothing. The movement of the chest was soothing also. I remember my son had one of these items, but as anything goes, the improvement was fantastic. I highly recommend this toy for any newborn.
