The gambang is a traditional musical instrument of Indonesia – like a large wooden zylophone. Recorded in Cilandak, Indonesia, Audio CD Duration:47 minutes Bapak has asked that this important recording should be used with responsibility. It is best to play it only two or, at the most, three times a month, and if members who first listen to it are women, then the men must wait in another room until after the playing of the recording has ended. In this way there wil be no mixing of the movements of the different sexes. In Indonesia, Bapak’s gambang recording is played very seldom unless really necessary, as for example if there is a member whose heart is not yet calm, or if there is a member who is not yet able to receive and feel the existence of the latihan. In such situations Bapak’s gambang recording may be played so that the heart can become calm, and the one who is not yet able to receive movements of the body may become able to move.
