From Imitation to Internalization: How Appropriation and Assimilation of the “Other” Have Defined Impressionism and Minimalism By Ryan A. Sutherland Dr. Meredith Schweig, PhD Adviser An abstract of a thesis submitted to the Faculty of Emory College of Arts and Sciences of Emory University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honors Music Department 2016 Abstract Gamelan is in Our Blood. From Imitation to Internalization: How Appropriation and Assimilation of the “Other” Have Defined Impressionism and Minimalism By Ryan A. Sutherland This thesis argues that the gamelan has played a central role in creating a Western musical culture that seeks hybridity with non-Western musics as a means of creating novel soundscapes. I aim to augment the existing corpus of research concerning the influence of the Balinese and Javanese gamelan on contemporary Western art music and on the development of musical modernism, highlighting how hybrid aesthetics have come to not only influence but ultimately define many modern soundscapes. Composers whose works were influenced by the gamelan, such as Debussy, Bartók, Partch, Britten, and others, heralded the advent of modernism and signaled the end of the Common Practice era, emerging stylistically from beneath the shadow of Romanticism. And the influence of the gamelan on Western music is still evident today: its impact is palpable in the minimalist writing of composer Philip Glass, the intricate percussion compositions by set-theorist Iannis Xenakis, and in a variety of new-age ambient, punk, and electronica albums. Thus, this thesis provides a broad-based analysis of the widespread impact the gamelan has had and continues to have on composers, specifically highlighting the movements of Impressionism and Minimalism by analyzing pieces by Claude Debussy and Steve Reich, among others. Global interest in the genre known as “world music” has further popularized the gamelan sound, yet the rich local history and syncretic religious practices associated with this musical lineage remain largely unknown outside academic circles. And even within academic circles the relevance of the gamelan is often questioned. Thus, the significance of this project is multifaceted: it will serve to inform about the impact that Balinese and Javanese gamelan traditions have had on the stylistic development of contemporary Western music, on the establishment of the field of applied ethnomusicology, and on the creation and popularization of the world music genre and its offshoots among global audiences, and will establish an archive of gamelan karawitan (traditional repertoire). Furthermore, this thesis will draw on a wide array of interdisciplinary research, citing anthropologists, ethnographers, historians, ethnomusicologists and musicians, and will record cross-cultural perspectives, discussing themes of appropriation, historical practice, and notions of musical change and development. Gamelan is in Our Blood. From Imitation to Internalization: How Appropriation and Assimilation of the “Other” Have Defined Impressionism and Minimalism By Ryan A. Sutherland Dr. Meredith Schweig, PhD Adviser A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Emory College of Arts and Sciences of Emory University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honors Music Department 2016 Acknowledgements. This thesis represents a labor of love. My interest in gamelan began in 2013 after a lecture in Music 204W “Music Cultures of the World” with Dr. Elizabeth Clendinning. After learning about this musiculture and touring the gamelan room as a student in this class, I decided to join the ensemble. And this decision has been the single most rewarding one I’ve made in my entire life. I consider Professor Clendinning to be the “Mother of the Gamelan” at Emory University and am honored to consider her a close personal friend and mentor — she revitalized the group in 2013 (the year I joined the ensemble), and was instrumental in reopening the ensemble to the community, coordinating its official naming celebration, and for bringing Pak Madé to this campus. For her, I am deeply grateful. Without her encouragement, I doubt the idea for an honors thesis in ethnomusicology would have even crossed my mind. I must also thank my adviser, Dr. Meredith Schweig, for her countless hours of support and her thoughtful revisions. Her guidance has helped me clarify the balungan of this project, its central melody, giving it life. She graciously invited me to lecture in her classes, MUS 200 “Music, Culture and Societies” and MUS 204W “Music Cultures of the world,” opportunities which helped me greatly in refining my topic. I could not have completed this project without her support. I thank my committee, Dr. Lynn Bertrand in the Department of Music and Dr. Gray Crouse in the Department of Biology, and also offer my sincerest gratitude to Joyce Clinkscales, Courtney Chartier and John Bence for helping me establish the gamelan archive at Emory University. Furthermore, I am grateful to Dr. S.C. Wang and Dr. J.C. Wang of Northern Illinois University for their generosity and inspiration. Both have helped me to define my thesis topic, hosted me at NIU, and led the “Experiencing the Arts in Bali” study abroad to Baturiti, Bali, Indonesia. I will never forget their kindness and encouragement. I wish to thank the other participants on this study abroad for their friendship as well as Dr. Jeremy Grimshaw and Tate Grimshaw whom I met at Pak Madé’s compound in Baturiti, Bali, Indonesia. I offer my sincerest appreciation to Pak Midiyanto. and to Pak I Madé Lasmawan and his direct family, Bu Ketut Marni, Aji, Ade, and Putu, Tara Hatfield, as well as Pak Madé’s family in Baturiti, Bali and the Baturiti men’s gamelan group who graciously allowed me to perform with them on selonding, angklung and kebyar at the Ngeratep Ratu Sakti odalan temple ceremony at Pura Pucak Luhur Padang Dawa, a ceremonial blessing of the Nawa Sanga, and sit in on several of their practices. Pak Madé and Bu Ketut gave me countless hours of invaluable instruction in Balinese dance and Javanese and Balinese Gamelan. To them, I say “terima kasih” from the bottom of my heart. To all of my friends at Emory who have come to my performances, offered their ears to listen to my ideas, and their hugs when I was at wits’ end — thank you. I specifically wish to thank Rob Dunn, Bennett Kane, Wyatt Kane, Nick Perry, Gracelyn Miller, Madeline Drace, Michael Van Ginkel, and Rebecca Leff for their reassurances through this process. But even before my encounter with the gamelan, this topic has been beating in my chest, waiting for the right moment to come to life. At the encouragement of my piano teacher, Sally Robinson, I first played Debussy’s Arabesque No. 1 when I was 13 years old. And my love for his music has never left me. The first time I heard Reich’s Music for 18 Musicians was just as poignant and memorable. Above all, I thank my mother for instilling in me a love of music at an early age and my father for never missing one of my many music performances. I also thank my grandmother for supplying her wisdom and praise. At this point, I presume they know just as much about the gamelan and appropriation as I do considering how many times they selflessly lent their ears (at ungodly hours) to listen to me discuss my project. Finally, I must thank the members of the Emory Gamelan ensemble, specifically Claire Marie- Hefner and Neil Fried, as well as the gamelan itself. Thank you Paksi Kencono — and Vishnu, Brahma, and Siva — for giving me good taksu through the years. Om Swastiastu, R.S. Table of Contents.

Martinus Dwi Marianto July 1995 ABSTRACT Surrealist painting flourished in Yogyakarta around the middle of the 1980s to early 1990s. It became popular amongst art students in Yogyakarta, and formed a significant style of painting which generally is characterised by the use of casual juxtapositions of disparate ideas and subjects resulting in absurd, startling, and sometimes disturbing images. In this thesis, Yogyakartan Surrealism is seen as the expression in painting of various social, cultural, and economic developments taking place rapidly and simultaneously in Yogyakarta's urban landscape.

  • Innovative Approaches to Melodic Elaboration in Contemporary Tabuh Kreasibaru
    INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO MELODIC ELABORATION IN CONTEMPORARY TABUH KREASIBARU by PETER MICHAEL STEELE B.A., Pitzer College, 2003 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Music) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2007 © Peter Michael Steele, 2007 ABSTRACT The following thesis has two goals. The first is to present a comparison of recent theories of Balinese music, specifically with regard to techniques of melodic elaboration. By comparing the work of Wayan Rai, Made Bandem, Wayne Vitale, and Michael Tenzer, I will investigate how various scholars choose to conceptualize melodic elaboration in modern genres of Balinese gamelan. The second goal is to illustrate the varying degrees to which contemporary composers in the form known as Tabuh Kreasi are expanding this musical vocabulary. In particular I will examine their innovative approaches to melodic elaboration. Analysis of several examples will illustrate how some composers utilize and distort standard compositional techniques in an effort to challenge listeners' expectations while still adhering to indigenous concepts of balance and flow. The discussion is preceded by a critical reevaluation of the function and application of the western musicological terms polyphony and heterophony. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ii Table of Contents : iii List of Tables ....

  • The Protection of Indonesian Batik Products in Economic Globalization
    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 192 1st International Conference on Indonesian Legal Studies (ICILS 2018) The Protection of Indonesian Batik Products in Economic Globalization Dewi Sulistianingsih1a, Pujiono1b 1Department of Private and Commercial Law , Faculty of Law, Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES), Indonesia a [email protected], b [email protected] Abstract— Batik is one of Indonesia’s cultural heritage whose existence has been recognized by UNESCO since 2009. It has become the identity and characteristic of Indonesia that needs to be preserved and developed. Indonesian people can preserve it by recognizing its products’ existence and conducting development efforts by improving the quality of its products. In Indonesia, batik has been passed down from generations by wearing, producing and marketing its products. The article is the result of a study using a socio-legal method. The data collection was conducted through interview and observation techniques. The research subjects are batik business owners in Indonesia. This paper reveals the challenges and obstacles faced by the local batik product business people in Indonesia in the face of economic globalization. There have been legal efforts to provide protection for the Indonesian batik products. The problems are how the protection is applied and how the country and the community perform the protection. The other objective of this paper is to analyze the readiness of the local batik businesspeople in Indonesia in the face of economic globalization especially from the legal perspective. The article exposes the batik business owners’ weaknesses and seeks to give sound solutions which is hoped to be applied by the batik business owners in Indonesia in order to survive in the globalization era.

  • Gamelan Gender Wayang of Bali: Form and Style
    ..................~~.~.~.. ~------------------ WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY Gamelan Gender Wayang of Bali: Form and Style by Kalafya Brown A thesis submitted to the facuIty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music May, 2000 Middletown, Connecticut My teacher, Kak Luweng, and myself playing gender (above) and just sitting (below), 2 Introduction and Acknowledgements I began studying gamelan music in 1994 while I was an undergraduate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. No one tends offhand to associate gamelan with MIT. but there it is. Professor Evan Ziporyn has been directing the gong kebyar ensemble Gamelan Galak Tika at MIT since 1993, and I was an active member from 1994 until 1997. Unfortunately the pressure of my studies at Wesleyan has not allowed me to play with Galak Tika as much as I would like in the past few years. For the three years of my tenure with Galak Tika we were blessed with the artistry of the Balinese husband and wife team of I Nyoman Catra and Desak Made Suarti Laksmi. The magnificent teaching and performance prowess of Evan, Catra and Desak formed the basis of my introduction to gamelan music. In 1997 I came to Wesleyan University to study for the degree of Master of Arts in Music, of which this thesis is a part. Here at Wesleyan I have had the great honor of studying with I. M. Harjito and Sumarsam, two Javanese artists. I sincerely thank them for broadening my awareness of the multifaceted natures of Indonesian music and for sharing with me the great beauty of the central Javanese court gamelan.

  • Performance in Bali
    Performance in Bali Performance in Bali brings to the attention of students and practitioners in the twenty-first century a dynamic performance tradition that has fasci- nated observers for generations. Leon Rubin and I Nyoman Sedana, both international theatre professionals as well as scholars, collaborate to give an understanding of performance culture in Bali from inside and out. The book describes four specific forms of contemporary performance that are unique to Bali: • Wayang shadow-puppet theatre • Sanghyang ritual trance performance • Gambuh classical dance-drama • the virtuoso art of Topeng masked theatre. The book is a guide to current practice, with detailed analyses of recent theatrical performances looking at all aspects of performance, production and reception. There is a focus on the examination and description of the actual techniques used in the training of performers, and how some of these techniques can be applied to Western training in drama and dance. The book also explores the relationship between improvisation and rigid dramatic structure, and the changing relationships between contemporary approaches to performance and traditional heritage. These culturally unique and beautiful theatrical events are contextualised within religious, intel- lectual and social backgrounds to give unparalleled insight into the mind and world of the Balinese performer. Leon Rubin is Director of East 15 Acting School, University of Essex. I Nyoman Sedana is Professor at the Indonesian Arts Institute (ISI) in Bali, Indonesia. Contents List
