Living Rubato | Hannah Standiford2 | TEDxRVAWomen

A lifelong passion for bluegrass and old-time Appalachian music led Hannah Standiford down an unconventional path of music and culture. In 2011, she discovered Gamelan Raga Kusuma, a community Balinese gamelan group, which began her obsession with Indonesian music. During her 2014-2015 academic year she studied in Solo, Java under the Darmasiswa Scholarship and discovered keroncong, a style of Indonesian string band music. In her talk at TEDxRVAWomen, Hannah describes how Indonesia is known for a laid back sense of time in comparison to the United States. When one relaxes into this flow, an incredible amount of opportunities can present themselves. Interestingly enough, there are several parallels between elements of Indonesian music and this relation to the everyday passing of time.
