Master and Pupil - Balinese Gender Duets (2011)

---

and

Gender is a traditional Balinese and Indonesian ten brass-bar metallophone with bamboo echo chambers under the bars, an instrument which normally forms part of a
larger gamelan orchestra. Gender is more rarely played as a duet of two instruments with the two players sitting face-to-face. That is the case here: these are
two music lessons of master and pupil as a duet running through the same core repertoire twice, mostly sacred music for tooth-filing ceremonies.
