    Acknowledgments

    The authors would like to acknowledge the skills that they have gained from their many teachers. There are so many great Balinese artists that we have studied with that it is impossible to mention them all.

    I Wayan Dibia would like to thank his late parents, I Wayan Geriya and Ni Nyoman Rindi (both renowned dancers and his first teachers), the late I Made Kredek (Baris), the late Pande Kenyir (Jauk), the late I Nyoman Kakul (Topeng), the late I Nyoman Kembur (Barong), I Gede Geruh (Gambuh), I Made Jimat (Jauk), I Wayan Beratha (gamelan), I Gusti Bagus Nyoman Panji (former director of the High School of Performing Arts or KOKAR/SMKI), Prof. Dr I Wayan Mertha Sutedja and Prof. Dr I Made Bandem (former directors of ASTI/ISI Denpasar).

    Rucina Ballinger began her studies of Balinese dance with I Nyoman Wenten in California and continued with the late I Nyoman Kakul (Baris Gambuh, Topeng), Sang Ayu Ketut Muklin (Legong Keraton), Ni Ketut Arini Alit (Taruna Jay a, Legong Keraton, and other Kebyar dances) and I Ketut Kantor and I Ketut Wirtawan (Topeng). She studied with many great musicians and dancers while an active member of Gamelan Sekar Jaya in California from 1979 to 1985, including her co-author, I Wayan Dibia. To all of the performers in Bali, she extends her warm gratitude. In particular, Arini Alit provided information on Kebyar and Legong, as well as hours of discussion (not to mention laughter). I K. Kantor, I K. Wirtawan, I N. Cerita, I K. Kodi, I. B. Wirjana, I W. Narta and Ni G. A. Raka Rasmin all gave generously of their time. And last, but not least, Agung, Anom and Arie put up with my obsession for many monthsmy heartfelt thanks to my "club of men."

    Barbara Anello wishes to acknowledge and thank Ida Pedanda Gede Wayan Datah of Geria Krotok, Budakeling, for his instruction; Ida Wayan Padang and Ida Made Basma of Geria Tubuh, Abang, Karangasem, for the dance; Ida Wayan Taman for his story; Kakiang Belawa and Aji Poleng, gone but remembered; Ida Bagus Dibia, remembered; Anak Agung Raka Bawa, for the first midnight shadow puppet performances; and Alicia Martin and Peter and Barbara Tollitt for adventures shared and kindness shown.

    Wayne Vitale gave valuable insight into gamelan music. M. Tenzer, K. Worthy, W. Vitale, J. Diamond, K. Devereaux, P. Yampolsky, E. Herbst, A. Jeanson, A. Timar, K. Tetsuro, D. Myers and R. Brown helped with the compilation of the discography. Barbara Anello read through and edited the manuscript. Garrett Kam, a performer and writer himself, went over the manuscript numerous times, giving generously of his time and knowledge. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to him.

    The illustrations are by Barbara Anello and the photographs are from the collections of the authors and illustrator, unless otherwise stated. Any omissions or errors are the fault of the authors and we apologize in advance for these. Our intention is to introduce the beauty of Balinese performing arts to a wider audience.
