Year 10, #10

11 October 2011
Home of Ki Purbo Asmoro, Gebang, Kadipiro, Surakarta

Because of various scheduling difficulties, we were unable to have Pujangga Laras in August 2011 or September 2011, and so decided to hold THREE klenengan in a row in order to catch up:

  • 10 October, gendhing determined by Bp. Kamso
  • 11 October, gendhing determined by Bp. Darsono/Jepang
  • 12 October, gendhing determined by Bp. Wakidi

All three were held at the home of Ki Purbo Asmoro in Gebang, Kadipiro, Surakarta. All three began at 8 pm and went until 2 am.

Tonight’s group was entirely from Bp Darsono, based mostly on his group that rehearses at Bu Jerman’s in Nusukan, but filled in with “frontline” instrumentalist guests—and the instrumental positions did not change for the whole klenengan.

(This report was written quite late—in March of 2013!—based on notes in Kitsie’s book.)
