New Jakarta Ensemble

Tony Prabowo shaped the brand new Jakarta Outfit in July, 1996, to supply music for an Indonesian dance event. The music is really a mixture of the Indonesian composer’s Traditional western classical history and the players’ traditional Minang (Traditional western Sumatran) strategy. The group doesn’t make use of sheet music, but rather Prabowo tells them his ideas, departing it to towards the music artists to interpret his compositions typically. The collaboration produces a music that’s neither strictly Traditional western nor traditional. The ensemble’s music is conducted on tools from around Indonesia, the center East, China, the Caribbean, SOUTH USA, and Africa. They performed London’s Sufi Music Event in 1997, as well as the Asia Society’s Clear Custom in 1998.
