Tari Topeng Telek / Telek Dance

TITLE: Tari Topeng Telek CHOREOGRAPHY: Anonymous PERFORMED: "Yama Sari" ensemble of Peliatan village - gamelan and dance groupe from Peliatan, Ubud, Bali Tari Topeng Telek is a masked dance—Topeng means mask, and Telek refers to temple guardians. The original creator of Tari Topeng Telek is unknown. This sequence is from the story of Siva, and is part of the famous ritual drama Barong Telek, which tells about the protector—the Barong—and the demonic destroyer—Rangda. Here, Telek and Jauk characters engage in their own conflict which takes place before the central confrontation between Barong and Rangda. The Telek dancers are the temple guardians and the protectors of good. They wear white masks to reflect their gentle and refined nature. The Jauk dancers are fierce and bold demons who seek to attack the Barong. They wear red masks and long fingernails, to represent anger and destruction. The costume is based on the Balinese temple outfit and its traditional symbols. The gelungan/udeng (hat/headdress) is elaborately ornamented because it covers the holiest part of the body. The lamak covers the torso with softness, and the wide belt holds back desires. The kipas (fan) is used as an extension of the hand, in kindness or as a weapon. The music is also traditional and it is completely united with the dance. Changes in dynamics, accent, and musical structure are tightly synchronized to the dancers' hand, foot, and eye gestures, as both dancers and musicians give and follow cues. The Indonesian gamelan is the traditional orchestra, with instruments of bronze, iron, wood, or bamboo.
