The Legong Lesson.

Tuban.

Walking on the shore we suddenly heard the crystalline sounds of gamelan orchestra that seemed to come from the tropical vegetation. As we approached, we had the chance to attend a lesson of Legong outdoors. Twenty girls and some boys learned the basics of the dance in the presence of a teacher, dancer too, who tried to instill his passion to the children.

En marchant sur le rivage nous avons entendu soudain les sons cristallins d’un orchestre de gamelan qui semblait jaillir de la végétation tropicale. En nous approchant, nous eûmes la chance d’assister à une leçon de Legong en plein air. Une vingtaine de filles et quelques garçons apprenait les rudiments de cette danse en présence d’un professeur, danseur lui aussi, et qui tentait d’inculquer sa passion aux jeunes enfants.
