An important aim for a working bamboo plantation such as ours is to lay the groundwork for a local industry in the manufacture of musical instruments made from bamboo. To further this aim,
in May we invited the San Francisco group Gamelan Bamboo Bali to give a concert and bamboo instrument-making workshop. Although this group had not intended to record an album when they arrived on Kauai, their music was so fantastic that we persuaded our label, Steelgrass Records, to produce a recording of their music in high resolution 5.1 surround sound. Release date for their debut CD/DVD-A, entitled Gamelan Bamboo Bali, is March, 2007.
