pelog

  • E-F-G-B-C-E' en
  • there is a jump of two whole tones between G and B and again between C and the next higher E en
  • ding-dong-deng-dung-dang-ding. This is the most common mode (saih) of the pelog scale, called selisir. There are two others, tembung and sunaren, in which the starting points of the scale are different. Musical instruments in Bali are not tuned to specific frequencies, and so the above intervals are not exact. It is best to say that pelog is a tuning system in which one octave contains two large intervals and three small interevals. en
  • between E and F and between B and C the interval is one-half tone en
  • Balinese musicians call these notes ding, dong, deng, dung, and dang en
  • the list below shows the intervals between adjacent notes en
  • music: sequence of intervals between notes, or tuning, of a musical instrument commonly used for the five or ten-keyed instruments of the gong kebyar en
  • actually the pelog scale has 7 notes, but two are almost always omitted: (e) - (1) - (2) - (e) - (2) en
  • the intervals are less even than those of the slendro scale and are approximated by the notes of the piano: E, F, G, B, C en
