Traditionally

 

Tabuh Lelambatan Klasik or Classical Gamelan of Bali is originally a repertoire of gamelan called gong gede. Gamelan gong gede is one of the biggest ensemble in Bali which is usually played to accompany a ceremony in a certain temple or palace of a royal family. Generally, music of Gong Gede is called Tabuh or Gending and commonly played in slow (lambat) tempo, so it’s called lelambatan. Nowadays, the music of Gamelan Gong Gede is commonly played in Gamelan Gong Kebyar, one of the most popular ensembles in Bali today. Of course, the technique of playing these two gamelans is different. In Gamelan Gong Gede, the music is played simpler than Gamelan Gong Kebyar.
