Musicians
Founded in 2012 as a community-based ensemble, Gamelan Bike Bike’s instruments were created from various scrap metals, including over 100 discarded bicycle frames that were transformed into tuned metallophones and gongs. The ensemble is dedicated to performing new music for gamelan, including recent compositions from guest composer I Putu Gede Sukaryana from Bali. The ensemble is currently based at the Hadden Park Fieldhouse as part of the Publik Secrets fieldhouse residency with the Vancouver Park Board and regularly offers workshops and performances to the community.
