     For our Grand Finale we will feature Gamelan Galak Tika, a Balinese gamelan group composed of over 25 musicians and dancers in full traditional costume. The MIT based group is directed by Evan Ziporyn, a 
leader on the World Music scene who worked with Yo Yo Ma on his recent Silk Road tour.

Ceremonial Indonesian percussion orchestras have impacted composers from Debussy to Benjamin Britten. The name Gamelan Galak Tika is Javanese for "intense togetherness", an apt description for all of the 2008-2009 Concert Series shows, which bring great artists together with a great community.
