Year 10, #11

12 October 2011
Home of Ki Purbo Asmoro, Gebang, Kadipiro, Surakarta

Third of 3 klenengan in a row, 10-11-12 October 2011:

Because of various scheduling difficulties, we were unable to have Pujangga Laras in August 2011 or September 2011, and so decided to hold THREE klenengan in a row in order to catch up:

  • 10 October, gendhing determined by Bp. Kamso
  • 11 October, gendhing determined by Bp. Darsono/Jepang
  • 12 October, gendhing determined by Bp. Wakidi

All three were held at the home of Ki Purbo Asmoro in Gebang, Kadipiro, Surakarta. All three began at 8 pm and went until 2 am.

(This report was written quite late—in March of 2013!—based on notes in Kitsie’s book.)
