Gottry-Lanceran Satu Slendro (SP)-B/V/C/2M/2T/P

Lanceran Satu Slendro by Josh Gottry for percussion septet. This piece was inspired by the composer's first exposure to Javanese gamelan music. This work intents to provide a glimpse into that musical tradition and style using standard western percussion instruments. A lanceran is a particular form for certain pieces in the Javanese gamelan musical tradition. Slendro is one of two tuning systems or pitch collections used for Javanese gamelan. Satu is loosely translated to mean "first."
