Nyok cok

edit

I'm not actually too sure what nyok cok is, so feel free to correct me. I made an example of what I think it might be, but I can't fit it in without messing up the flow of the page, so I left it out because it's probably wrong anyway. =P —Keenan Pepper 22:45, 3 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Balinese intervals

edit

Empat intervals are often close to being 5ths, but not always. In 4 tone Angklung music, (Angklung daun empat) the outer keys are close to a fifth and that is the only empat that is possible. In Gong Kebyar, some of the empat combinations are close to a fifth, but one in particular is closer to a sixth. In Gamelan Jegog, empats are often close to a seventh and sometimes close to a sixth, but a fifth requires a kumpiung (a interval created by playing two keys that have one note inbetween). Intervals from adjacent notes are rare in traditional Balinese gamelan music. --Samuel Wantman 23:32, 4 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
