  • I made this tribute to Lotring on the 30th of August, 2010. [PdR] The video contains segments of wonderful and unique footage - from a 20-minute documentary published on / jackusful by Jacques (..), whom I contacted - of legendary Balinese musician I Wayan Lotring (1898-1983) dancing and playing in 1972. I rearranged the footage a bit and combined it with a segment of Lotring's composition 'Liar Samas', played by himself and his orchestra in 1972. You can find the complete recording on a marvellous 2cd-album, released by Ocora, titled 'Hommage a Wayan Lotring', an album I highly recommend, a very worthwhile buy if you like gamelan music from Bali.
    In the 1920's and 1930's Lotring was an absolute sensation on Bali, revolutionising musical form of gamelan pieces on kebyar, pelegongan and gender wayang, and in so doing paving the way for others on Bali to take gamelan into new directions.
    I would expect Canadian composer Colin McPhee to have filmed him in the 1930's but haven't seen that footage (only a few photographs of Lotring by McPhee). In his book 'A House in Bali' McPhee meets Lotring and even devotes a chapter to him. A nice read that brings you in the midst of musical history on Bali.

    i was entranced by this as if by magic when i came through indonesia from australia aged 23 in 1968. and then the girls came on in their slow majestic dance. with the tropical heat and the all-pervasive smell of cloves cigarettes, honestly, i thought i had reached heaven.

    Heel erg bedankt dat je deze film met ons wilt delen. Ik heb deze muziek leren kennen in de 70er jaren en het was mijn "poort" tot Bali en haar cultuur. Helaas heb ik Lotring nooit ontmoet, hoewel hij toen nog wel leefde. Het orkest heb ik voor het eerst live meegemaakt in 1978. Het was en blijft een bijzondere gebeurtenis.

    @fastmallets21 : I played Javanese and Balinese gamelan for many, many years in the past, but no longer after 2003 I think. I also listened a lot and I have many recordings. I watched the 20-minute footage published by Jacques... unique material and yes, Liar Samas is a marvellous piece... probably my favourite Lotring-piece :)

    @glitterballz Indeed, the Hommage a Wayan Lotring CD set must be one of the very best gamelan recordings ever. Quite fantastic. It was not easy to find, but it is a great prize.

    great!
    i was looking for Colin McPhee's take on Gambangan, and your video was a direct result of that search! No McPhee but this is fine :)
    (I have Lotring's Hommage CD - fantastic also)

    Search again. McPhee's Gambangan is out there. Both that and this are incredibly gorgeous.
