CD: Gamelan Yowana Sari - Gamelan Yowana Sari

Recorded at the famed Wiswakarma Museum in Bali, Gamelan Yowana Sari's self-titled debut is much more than just a sonic exploration of a musical tradition that is beloved worldwide. While the location provided a wealth of inspiration and deep connection for the musicians — all of whom, under the guidance of GYS founder Michael Lipsey and co-directors Fred Trumpy and Ruka Shironishi, are students, alumni, and community patrons of the Aaron Copland School of Music at CUNY Queens College — what makes this album doubly compelling is the expansive range of the music.

Recorded by Antida Music Productions at the Wiswakarma Museum, Bali
Mixed and mastered in stereo and Dolby Atmos by Nathaniel Reichman
