Made Subandi

I Made Subandi at the 2013 San Francisco Ethnic Dance Festival.

I Made Subandi (born February 1966, Batubulan[1]) is a gamelan composer and performer from Gianyar, Bali. Having studied with his father, drummer and gender wayang player I Made Dig, and at SMKI ('85-'88) and STSI ('89-'93),[1] he teaches at the Indonesian Academy of Performing Arts in Bali. He is well known for his use of experimentation. Tenzer describes Subandi as one of a few composers who, "have achieved a self-conscious and fundamental break with the tabuh kreasi form of the recent past."[2]

Compositions include Bajramusti (1997).[2] He has collaborated with Dutch trio Boi Akih. See: List of music students by teacher: N to S#Made Subandi.
