Andy Gleadhill’s new Teacher’s guide to Indonesian Gamelan is a wonderfully practical introduction to teaching Gamelan. The guide has been written for non-specialist teachers and covers everything you need to know to introduce this wonderful music to the class, and to begin making magical Gamelan music. Andy’s crystal clear writing style, and his vast teaching experience, make this the classic introduction to start with.
