Jendela Ide Kids Percussion


Jendela Ide Kids Percussion was established three years ago as one of the activities of Jendela Ide cultural organization for children & youth.

Beginning with about 20 youngsters learning to play rebana, this group have performed in various Children’s or Cultural Forums in Bandung. Through this process, those who had a serious interest in learning to play percussion instruments expressed the desire to learn to play 'Djembe', an instrument from Africa.

Jendela Ide invited percussion specialist to facilitate them on a regular basis, until they eventually formed a solid children’s percussion group, Jendela Ide Kids Percussion & Jendela Ide Junior Percussion and perform in various music events in Bandung as well as Jakarta.
In addition, in 2004-2006, Jendela Ide Kids Percussion took part in a percussion workshop with Mamadou Diabate (Djembe performer - Burkina Faso, Africa), Tomoko (composer - Tokyo, Japan), Trio Dingo ( Australia ).
