Gamelan is a word used to refer to particular types of percussion orchestras with roots in Indonesia. Encinal is the Spanish word for oak grove, and is what our home, Oakland CA. was formerly named. Our instruments frames are also made of oak.
The instruments used for the ensemble are inspired by central Javanese gamelans, and use the same tuning used by Lou Harrison and Bill Colvig for various gamelans they built. The instruments have been built over a number of years by Daniel Schmidt with the aid of Lydia Martin, Stephen Parris, and various students of Mills College. http://www.gamelanencinal.com
