Contemporary gamelan performance outside Indonesia-and more broadly speaking, the discipline of ethnomusicology-owes a largely unacknowledged debt to a group of Dutch teenagers, who formed the first long-term European gamelan group, Babar Layar, in the prohibitive circumstances of Nazi occupation. In this essay I discuss the establishment and subsequent activities of Babar Layar, also examining the group's historical significance, particularly the impact it had-however unintentionally-on the incorporation of performance into the discipline of ethnomusicology
