A delightful Indonesian house on stilts, framed with tropical vegetation, is the backdrop to activities in the front yard. The shadow puppet shows performed throughout the islands of Indonesia are centuries old. Puppets are made from leather. Their faces are carefully carved to express their individual personalities. The wayang kulit performance is one way of telling traditional stories in an Indonesian community.
Music is an important part of wayang kulit performances.
As they say in Indonesia, the music is like the sound of moonlight.
