Album Description

Tembang Sunda: Classical Music from West Java is the first compact disk to be issued out of a larger body of recordings from Indonesia. It is a little known fact that Indonesia is the fourth largest country on Earth with a population approaching 200 million. It is the world's largest Islamic country, and it is Australia's nearest neighbor. Only ca. 100 km (60 miles) away from the northern tip of Australia, it is about as distant as Cuba is from the United States and what a distance that represents in real life...

Once again, the intrepid New Zealand producer/musician/composer David Parsons has made a significant contribution to the knowledge of a little known culture and its little known music. The booklet gives a detailed introduction into Java's contemporary culture (written by The New York Times journalist Barbara Crossette) as well as into the esoteric realm of Tembang Sunda/Cianjuran music in particular (written by eminent ethnomusicologist Andrew Weintraub). It is a landmark of world music and a unique achievement by an expert team of musicians, producers, engineers and writers; it continues Celestial Harmonies' tradition of long standing to enrich the catalogue with recordings from Southeast Asian countries which will play a significant role in the development of the 21st century but are nevertheless widely unknown and misunderstood in the West.

It is the most beautiful sound in the world.......1998-12-14

Tembang Sunda is a wonderful flowing music and the most beautiful sounds in the world, which is very universal (very accessible to ears of people who have never heard any Sundanese music before). It provide moments of rare musical beauty.

Very entertaining ethnoambient........2007-05-11

Wow. I am the first to review this? Unbelievable cuz it is really cool. A beautiful cross between Javanese gamelan music and electrambienewage. Actually is cool as background music for getting some important work done, like planning the new millenium. Most of it is gamelam with synth kind of setting the scene.

This just does not sound like it came from Baltimore. But apparently Macht spent some time far from Bawlmer, sipping some java with the Javanese.

Very listenable, musical, and tastefully done........2006-08-18

Generally, this is kind of a background ambient exotic atmosphere type of album, with almost a windchime feel to the songs.

If you really like World, Ethnic, or Indigenous music that is faithful to origins while being Westernized, this is a great album.

If it wasn't so suspenseful and dramatic, it could be relaxation or massage music. But per liner notes, each track conveys a story (other than "enjoy your stay at the spa").
