Some of these gamelan belong to the banjar, village, formal institutions, and individuals. This number is added to the large number of Gamelan Gong Kebyar groups scattered in various cities in Indonesia and abroad.</br></br></br>Abroad, Gong Kebyar was initially known via literature and records. One of the records was produced by Odeon and Beka who has recorded the gending-gending (the songs) Gong Kebyar, such as Kebyar Ding Sempati in Belaluan (Badung). In 1931 Sekaa Gong Kebyar Peliatan was performing in the contect of Colonial Exposition in Paris. The visit was continued in 1952 – 1953 to USA.

The presentation of Gong Kebyar gives an unlimited space for the players (such as sekaa gong : kids, women, adolescence, mixed adolescence, adult including werdha/old men) to have creativeness, and can give an attractive touch with more alive and dynamic performance. </br></br></br>The quantity of the instruments in one barungan for the gamelan Gong Kebyar is not all the same.

In addition, in the Balinese gamelan tuning system there is the term ngumbang-ngisep. Ngumbang-ngisep are two equal tones, intentionally made into a slight different frequency. If these two tones pangumbang and pangisep played together at the same time, they will produce sound wave which is asthetically one of the form of beauty in karawitan Bali. </br></br></br>In Gong Kebyar, there is also a concept of balance which is oriented towards "dualism" of good and bad or which includes similarities and differences. This concept can be seen in the themes of Balinese art, which mostly depart from this dualism, so that strong norms and ethics emerge and become part of art performances. The concept of a two-dimensional balance can produce symmetrical shapes that are at the same time asymmetrical or a harmonious and disharmonic braid which is commonly known as Rwa Bhineda. In the concept of rwa bhineda, there is also a spirit of togetherness, the existence of interrelation and competition to create interaction and competition. Balance in the second dimension is one of the basic concepts in Balinese music, including the gamelan Gong Kebyar.</br></br></br>This is reflected in the traditional Gong Kebyar instruments made in pairs; lanang - wadon or male female, this term is used in the naming of the drums and gongs.The tuning system ngumbang – ngisep ; the same tones with different frequency, the lower tone is called ngumbang and a slight higher tone is called ngisep.

The playing technique kotekan ; uses sangsih (off-beat), polos (on-beat). These are the symbol of balance elements which are not always parallel, but in a competitive interaction. </br></br></br>In general, it can be observed that the structure the Gong Kebyar repertoire consists of three main parts , namely: kawitan, pangawak and pangecet. Kawitan is supposed to be the head, pangawak is body, and pangecet is the legs. These parts are portioned out equally, in which the rwa bhineda system is always in it in order to produce harmony in each part or harmony among parts. Conceptually, these two elements become dualism that is always reflected in artistic activities in Bali. reflected in artistic activities in Bali.)

Have a strong imagination interpreted by using many different melodies on each instrument. This is different from the gender wayang repertoire system, which in general has one melody with polos (on beat melody) and sangsih (off beat melody) ornaments.</br></br>In this work, the composer divides the composition into four parts. Each section represents the textual ideas and concepts that are made, namely:</br></br>1. In the first part, the composer uses a gender wayang’s mallet handle hips. The initial part starts with Kantilan 1 by hitting several short melodies that are repeated several times. Then the Kantilan 1 player hits a note on the Pemade 1 instrument which is meant to give action to the next player. Player 1 responds by playing several short melodies that are different in response to the action given by the previous player.</br></br>2. In the second part using a medium tempo. There is a melody division between kantilan and pemade. Kantilan plays 2 notes alternating at a fast pace and different sizes. In between these melodies, pemade provides an accent as a marker or explanation for the melody of the performance. Then proceed with a melody totaling 8 beats with a sequential progression of notes back and forth, each of which has a different tone arrangement. The melodies are played relay or alternately.</br></br>3. In the third part, the tempo is slower and gradually accelerates. In this section the composers make a melody that is the same as each other by emphasizing the dynamics of each instrument. Then proceed with the imitation of one of the gender wayang repertoires, namely: angkat-angkatan. Gending angkat-angkatan on gender wayang is one type of gender wayang repertoire which is interpreted or often used as a wayang companion when walking towards the battlefield. In this type of gending has 2 different melodies which are played by the right hand and the left hand. The melody on the left hand usually consists of 4 beats that are repeated from beginning to end while the melody on the right hand is more agile and varies in pitch progression. In this case, each instrument has a different melody but is tied to one another or is called polyphony.</br></br>4. In the fourth part, using a polymmetric technique where each instrument has a different size bar. Kantilan 1 uses the beat 5/4, pemade 1 uses the beat 10/4, kantilan 2 uses the beat ¾ and pemade 2 uses the beat 6/4. In 1 lap, all the instruments will meet on beat 30. Each instrument has a different song sentence but on beat 20, the instruments will be brought together in almost the same rhythm. Then as a closing there is a kebyar with a different tone arrangement between kantilan and pemade.</br></br>Speech Delay's work has been staged at the Ancient Creative Music festival in 2020.
