Unplayed Melodies: Javanese Gamelan and the Genesis of Music Theory
Marc Perlman
The gamelan music of Central Java is one of the world's great orchestral traditions. Its rich sonic texture is not based on Western-style harmony or counterpoint, but revolves around a single melody. The nature of that melody, however, is puzzling. This book discusses the art of gamelan and the nature of musical knowledge in general.
