Year 5, #7

Friday, 10 March 2006
Home of Bp Rahayu Supanggah, Benawa, Palur

Dear Friends,

Friday, 10 March we had the 7th klenengan in the 5th fiscal year of Pujangga Laras. It was held at the home of Bp Rahayu Supanggah in Benawa, starting at 8:00 and lasting until 2:30 am. So sorry I am only getting the report to you now!

Pak Dalimin had just gotten out of the hospital as of this event, but he had planned the gendhing in the hospital, and two of them are his compositions—the pl 5 and pl 7 gendhing, so in a way this klenengan was in his honor.

We've been finding that the klenengan kind of takes a dive in energy after the STSI students play, unfortunately. The after dinner slot used to be one of the most fun parts of the klenengan, when players rotated more, pieces were spontaneous, and new players came to instruments. We've asked mas Raji to keep the STSI student pieces to 30 minutes but for the third time the suite was an hour long, and the Pujangga Laras players very ready to get back in and play after 30 minutes of dinner time. So starting next month we plan to ask the STSI students to play from 7-8 pm as the musicians are arriving, and we'll see how that works.

The next klenengan is scheduled for Saturday, 15 April at the home of Ki Purbo Asmoro in Gebang, Kadipiro.
