Overview

The Balinese and Javanese Music and Dance program is offered at California Institute of the Arts CalArts. Players learn in a small group environment, working closely with the world-renowned faculty.

Overview

In both Javanese and Balinese areas, repertoire encompasses an extensive range of traditional and contemporary works. Coursework allows students to become accomplished performers and also features classes in theory, transcription and analysis.
