Naarm's own Balinese gamelan orchestra Gamelan DanAnda welcome you to their Spring Concert, where they will be joined by special guests from Bali--master composer/musician Yande King's and dancer Putu Ayu Lestari--to premiere a new Balinese-Australian gamelan and dance work Tari Puspa Banksia, commissioned for Gamelan DanAnda and local dance troupe Sanggar Lestari.
Local dangdut/koplo band Yarra Irama will close the afternoon. Come down and enjoy the tunes, and the delicious food from Diana's Kitchen.
The performance will include an interactive kecak vocal percussion workshop and a dance workshop for all ages and abilities.
