Legong Semarandhana in Balerung stage, Peliatan

PRIOR INFORMATION: I am an amateur videographer and a simple tourist. My channel has no commercial purpose. I travel very often to Indonesia and in particular to the island of Bali.
As I am passionate about both video and the Balinese culture (Hindu ceremonies, traditional dances and music), I often film the events and shows that I attend. It is my way of keeping memories of my stays and of making known the rich culture of this island.

Legong Semarandhana in Balerung stage, Peliatan, Tirta Sari.
Dancers: Aan Devita and Nitha Suwitri. Recorded the 23th of November 2018.

Context. This dance was filmed at the Balerung stage, in the small town of Peliatan (near Ubud, Bali), where the world fame of Balinese dances and gamelan music began. Indeed, the first international tour of Balinese artists in Europe and U.S.A, which took place in 1952, brought together a group from Peliatan and led by A.A. Gede Mandera. Since that time, Peliatan has remained one of the historic centers of Balinese dance and music. Two heir groups of the famous troupe of 1952 are Tirta Sari and Gunung Sari, which give show for visitors every week. Tirta Sari at the Balerung stage on Friday evening and Gunung Sari on Saturday.
Many of the best dancers in Bali learn their art in Peliatan.
