Enhancing Angklung Music Rehearsals with Modern Tech

Discover how modern technology enhances rehearsals for the traditional Indonesian musical instrument, Angklung, in this 27-minute conference talk from Strange Loop. Learn about the orchestral format of Angklung performances, involving 15-30 players, and the challenges it presents. Explore the key concepts of an Angklung team and the manual processes involved in its formation. Delve into the automation of these processes using language-agnostic algorithms interfaced through a web application. Understand how this technology improves rehearsal efficiency and music quality by optimizing note distribution and instrument allocation. Gain insights into reading Angklung-specific sheet music in cipher notation and witness real-world applications of the algorithm through Python code samples. Join speaker Trapsilo Bumi, a Tokyo-based Software Developer, as he demonstrates the practical implementation of these innovative techniques in forming an Angklung team.
