We are happy to oragnise supportive and complementary gamelan activities like Javanese dance, Balinese dance workshops, as well as corporate teambuilding workshops at our space. Do contact us for more information.

Ramayana under the Stars (22 May) at Stamford Green went by smoothly. Organised by Peranakan Museum, in celebration of International Museums Day 2010, it was wonderfully relaxing day of gamelan music with dance and ended with two wayang kulit performances in the evening. This day was extra special as it brought three gamelan ensembles together - Gamelan Asmaradana, Gamelan Naga Kencana (RP) and Gamelan Singa Nglaras (NUS)

Also, for the first time in our history we were blessed with two "sell out" shows for Malam Di Bali (2 & 3 April) at Recital Studio, Esplanade. It was a memorable experience working and performing with Pak Dewa Alit from Jan to April 2010.

The memorable event in the last quarter was the Cultural Field-trip to Bali between 28 Nov to 6 Dec. We organised this special trip for SJi-International students. It was both enjoyable as well as a learning experience. Then, Pak Midiyanto brought his kids out to Singapore for a 5-day get-together and holiday. We had a fun time playing gamelan and visiting various tourist attractions with his kids. We held a Christmas party for all Gamelan Asmaradana members with their kids and  spouses included. We are One big faimly now. That was how 2009 ended... with an exciting note for us.
