Where would the gamelan be performed?

The gamelan is traditionally performed in a pendopo, a type of open-sided pavilion found in Indonesia. This space offers a natural acoustic environment that amplifies the resonating sounds of the instruments.

However, gamelan performances can also be found in:

* Temples: Gamelan music is often used in religious ceremonies and rituals.

* Palaces: Historically, gamelan was played for royalty and court events.

* Concert halls: Gamelan is now increasingly performed in concert settings, both in Indonesia and internationally.

* Outdoor spaces: Gamelan performances can also be found in parks, gardens, and other public spaces.

The specific location of a gamelan performance will depend on the context and purpose of the event.
