Gamelan Taniwha Jaya performed with Sekaa Selonding Semeton and dancers from Bali at the SE Asian Night Market on the Wellington Waterfront (near Te Papa).
Selonding is an ancient Balinese ensemble never before performed in New Zealand. Vaughan and Evie Hatch (a Kiwi-Balinese couple) brought a newly constructed replica set of instruments to Wellington with their family-based group of performers, including their 8-year old son who plays, composes and dances.
