Ensemble Kyai Fatahillah

Ensemble Kyai Fatahillah was founded in 1994, at IKIP (now UPI), the student of the music program informally formed a gamelan community involved in new music, although at the time IKIP did not have the proper gamelan instruments available. In the new beginning there were only ten member, where as most of the student at IKIP were not instersted in playing gamelan instrument. Finally IKIP/Bandung owned a complete set of the gamelan in 1998, wich was named "Kyai Fatahillah" by the rector. Then the group was formally called Ensemble Kyai Fatahillah also, Ensemble Kyai Fatahillah eversince is getting more active, specialized in playing both tradisional as well as new music for gamelan.
