Hi Yana...
ReplyDeletethanks for the site--very interesting! Nice photos! But there is SO much more to say, and so many MORE important things to say about Ki Purbo Asmoro than "Kitsie's favorite dhalang"! When you have such very good captions for all the other dalang which are professionally based. How about some of the captions which have been attributed to mas Purbo by experts? Like "master of interpretation in his creation of stories" (Ki Tristuti said this about him in 2002), or "one of the most poetic and dramatically compelling dhalang" (Pak Harjito of Wesleyan University said this about him in 2006), or "dhalang who has it all in equal and ample measure--drama, poetry, humor,musical knowledge, technical skill," (Goenawan Mohamed the reporter for TEMPO magazine said this in 2008).......but not "Kitsie's favorite dalang....". This comes up on google when one does a recent search for mas Purbo...thanks!
hahah oh im sorry for this. this blog is a work in progress. at this stage i've just been putting my personal notes planning to edit them later. thank you very much for your comment)
