Featuring the musicians Dijtron Koriyon Pah and Jeagril Pah (sasando), Dadan Budiana and Endang Sukandar (kacapi and suling)

doors open at 7.40 pm, event starts at 8 pm

The sounds and music of Indonesia are extremely diverse, if for no other reason than the sheer size of this island nation. Four Indonesian musicians will now introduce their stringed instruments here at the Weltkulturen Museum in a concert entitled “The Sound of Indonesian String”. Dijtron Koriyon Pah and Jeagril Pah will present the sasando, a bamboo tube zither that can also be seen in the “Sound Sources” exhibition. The sasando comes from the east of the archipelago and is found in traditional contexts as well as in pop culture. The two musicians Dadan Budiana and Endang Sukandar will provide a real contrast with the Tembang Sunda genre from West Java. This courtly vocal style is accompanied by the kacapi, a type of zither, and the suling, a bamboo flute.

The event is being staged in cooperation with the association KuKo e.V. and the Indonesian general consulate.
The language will be Indonesian with German translations.
