Reviews:

1. AllMusic - Bruno Deschênes
"Arja" refers to a distinctive kind of Balinese dance theater centered around song, while "geguntangan" means "gamelan which uses guntang." Guntang is a kind of bamboo harp whose strings are made of the outer skin of the bamboo which are cut into long and thin pieces and stretches like strings. Geguntangan Arja music uses two sizes of guntang: large and small. An interesting point about Arja is that it is an entertainment theater for ordinary people that is rarely, if ever, performed for tourists. Although typically Balinese, this music differs greatly from what we normally hear, especially with the use of the guntang and the extensive use of the suling, the Balinese bamboo flute. As well, the singing style is the most unusual. A discovery for Balinese music fans.
