 ternationally renowned scholars and artists; observation of rehearsals
 , 'backstage' preparation and performances; visits to sacred sites and

 very first time, Çudamani will offer elective courses on the fine art
 s of making masks, bamboo instruments and offerings.\n\nWith the succe
 ss of the 2007, 2008 & 2009 summer programs, Çudamani invites you to 
 participate in a rigorous study of Balinese music and dance in the vil
 lage of Pengosekan, Ubud, Bali. Çudamani has provided gamelan and dan
 ce instruction to hundreds of youth and adults over the past eleven ye
 ars. The company's technical accomplishments on the seven-toned Semara
 ndana are unparalleled.\n\nBackground\nIn the village of Pengosekan, U
 bud, Bali, across the street from the temple, is a family compound tha
 t is the home to Çudamani, comprised of young virtuoso musicians and 
 dancers. The company is famous for teaching, performing and preserving
  the rich and rare classical Balinese repertoire. Çudamani has provid
 ed gamelan and dance instruction to hundreds of young people over thei
 r eleven years of work in Pengosekan. To their credit they are one of 
 the few organizations in Bali that teachers gamelan to girls--a realm 
 that until recently, was reserved for males. The company’s technical
  accomplishments on the seven-toned Semaranandana are unparalleled and
  their musical versatility is respected in educational circles and sou
 ght after by major American composers. Çudamani and its members have 
 toured Italy, Greece, Japan and the U.S. In 2001, Çudamani received a
  grant from the Ford Foundation for their work in preservation, innova
 tion and education. In 2007, the company toured their critically accla
 imed production: Odalan Bali to 12 cities ( USA & Canada). Cudamani's 
 latest production BAMBOO to BRONZE will tour the US (west coast) in Fa
 ll 2010.\n\nArtistic Team\nI Dewa Putu Berata: Director, Gamelan Çuda
