Gamelan is perhaps a percussionists percussion, but my flavour of percussion is more along the lines of Frank Carlson, Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa --- the greats of the swing era.

What I do find to be incredibly clever is the way in which gamelan players are taught.

Some teachers have the ability to sit opposite the pupil & play in a reverse position. Incredible to watch.
