Cancellation of concert Gong Tirta in January 2022
Due to the recent lockdown regulations we decided to cancel the house concert planned on 29th/30th of January 2022. We currently plan to be part of the Gamelanhuis’ 25th anniversary which will probably consist of a series of events during April-June. We are very eager to share with you all our new repertoire with pieces like Mañana, Kacang Lupa, Devachan, Merdeka Bellz and Stretched. Keep safe, healthy and happy and join us then!

“.. the drums of ‘Kiezelguhr Dance’ were powerful and compelling… inclusive and intrusive..”
“.. Stunning!”
