Dewa Alit in France

Dewa will be with Polyphéme for his new composition in Marseille and Grenoble for two weeks in February. 

Polyphéme is a group formed by percussionist Wassim Halal with himself and 8 gamelan musicians from Paris for inter-cultural music experiments. 

Dewa Alit has written a commissioned piece "Ambigu" using Balinese gamelan and darbuka especially for the group's unique instrumentation.

Dewa and the members of Polyphéme will be hosted as artist in residence at Le GMEM-Centre National de Création Musicale in Marseille for the first week and then Centre International des Musiques Nomades in Grenoble for the second week.
