An informal chronology of gamelan in Japan

This informal chronology outlines the development of gamelan in Japan, beginning with early 20th-century research and expanding through Professor Koizumi Fumio's post-Wesleyan efforts in the 1970s. It details the formation of ensembles such as Lambang Sari and Sekar Djepun, university-led instruction, and national outreach initiatives like the National Children's Castle, which incorporated gamelan into arts education for children.
