When I read The music of Indonesia. I found that Indonesia is an island nation, and it is home over 350 different ethnic groups. Also, I saw before (1600-1945) arts and music are seen as high status and flourished during the Dutch Colonize. On the other hand, the history and layering of religions in Indonesia were Mysticism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam. I think today the majority are Muslim, and they still practice Hindu and Buddhist, This means the people in Indonesia belief and participate in Mystic spirit possession and trance rituals. Indonesian gamelan means the based on Colotomic structure like music organized into cycles. Bali is the home of many ritual performances, and they are mostly religious rituals and full of magical meaning to their performers and spectators. In these rituals, we found dance and theatre are always made to serve religious and magical purposes. The most sacred dances are seen as an act of worship or a sign of devotion. Also, they are usually performed in the inner temple courtyards in connection with calendar feasts. Bali easily accessible to tourists from around world. However, tourism in Bali has had an extensive history and can be traced back to the landing of the Dutch on the island 1597. Other rituals changed for tourist consumption, such as the Kejak or "Monkey Dance" and a welcoming dance for divine spirits, but now preformed at the airport to welcome government officials or other celebrities. Tourism has affected the performance practices, which has led to a number of essential changes. Anyway, this is first time I read and hear music of Indonesia. I have just know that Indonesia country has live most of Muslim people, and always it has earthquakes, maybe because it is island. Thank you
