Gambang Kromong - Betawi-Culture

Today I found time to renew the Gambang Kromong-page, based on field-research long time back. 
The page is the digitalzation of an article, which I had published with some varieties in two magazines:

1. Claus-Bachmann, Martina: "Gambang Kromong - chinesische Spuren in der Betawi-Kultur". In: Bröcker, Marianne (Hg.): Berichte aus dem ICTM-Nationalkomitee Deutschland V:99-113, Bamberg 1996.

2. Claus-Bachmann, Martina: KITA, Magazin der deutsch-indonesischen Gesellschaft, März 1996: 41-47.

Music and Culture in Sri Lanka

http://www.ethnomusicscape.de/srilanka/page3.htm .

Some of the elder modules have been updated so far, links have been renewed, but the main work has to be done in the next months and it will become an ambitious work. All the multimedia-files concerning the dance- and drum-culture of Sri Lanka have to be changes from the CD-ROM-version to a web-version. Already existing web-modules will get a kind of corporate design, the missing parts in the mindmap will be filled step by step:

The change of the provider will cause some missing pages in the near future due to a refreshment of the content. Step by step the pages will be uploaded again. Patience please.
