Answer to Question 1

 music that is characterized by some use of Western instruments/Western harmony, is commercial and disseminated through mass-media, and performed by recognized stars
CD 2:7 Shuufflendang-Shufflending Ethno-jazz fusion, Sundanese. Performed by Krakatau
 incorporates Sundanese musical elements into its ethno-fusion jazz, including the indigenous slndro and plog scale system and traditional instruments used in Javanese gamelan music (see instrumentation of example CD 3:6 in margin, WOM, p.349 ; also see photo of band in performance, Fig. 7-10, WOM, p.342 .
 Sundanizes jazz/pop music and jazzes or modernizes Sundanese music
 secular (nonreligious), regional (Sundanese), and international (jazz fusion). The group's ambiguous musical style bridges local Indonesian/traditional culture and Western/modern culture. Krakatau appeals to a narrower market: sophisticated urbanites. You can also visit their interesting website at www.krakatau2000.co m.

Answer to Question 2

 music that is characterized by some use of Western instruments/Western harmony, is commercial and disseminated through mass-media, and performed by recognized stars

Answer to Question 3

 Kosalia Arini clearly exemplifies all three characteristics of Balinese gamelan music: strictly instrumental, abrupt changes in tempi and dynamics (loudness levels), and dazzling technical display by the players.
How would you characterize the overall form of the selection?
