The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $15,000 by August 9.
In most circumstances a gamelan orchestra — a glittering collection of gongs and drums –would be more than enough to watch, but pair it with dancers from the same tradition, wrapped in silk and crowned with gold, and the very air begins to shimmer.
