For the first time in many years, Pusaka Sunda will be performing in our home town of San Jose, CA. We are excited to perform as part of the Concerts on the Corner Music Series at First Congregational Church of San Jose.
We hope that you can join us for this afternoon of West Javanese Gamelan Music and Dance. 3:00 pm, Sunday, January 19, 2025, free admission.
Pusaka Sunda is directed by internationally-acclaimed musician, recording artist and composer Burhan Sukarma. For over 35 years, the 10-member group has been performing and recording traditional and new music for gamelan degung, the iconic Sundanese gamelan of West Java, Indonesia.
Join us to hear the distinctive rhythms and melodies of Sundanese gamelan and the masterful improvisations of Burhan Sukarma on the suling bamboo flute. The concert will feature selections from Pusaka Sunda’s most recent album recorded this past summer in Bandung, Indonesia, traditional dance by Cia Garcia, and vocal selections song by guest vocalist Rina Oesman.
