Answer to Question 1

 Javanese gendhing normally have three parts to their titles, the formal structure, the melody, and the scale system.
 Bubaran refers to the formal structure of the piece; in this case, bubaran means sixteen beats per major phrase, four kenong beats per major phrase. (The kenong is the largest of the kettle gongs.) Kembang Pacar (a kind of red flower) is the name of a particular melody.
 Plog is the scale system used in the modal category of pathet nem.

Answer to Question 2

 The simultaneous occurrence of apparently unrelated events has much significance to the Javanese and its importance is reflected in the structure of their gamelan music.
