Throughout August 2014, we went to almost every performance and event put on by the George Town Festival. The standard was undoubtably world class - well done to Joe Sidek and his team.
Of all the acts we saw, Kuda Kepang was the most surprising, fascinating and confronting. Part performance, part ritual, this video captured some of the mayhem.

Kuda Kepang:

[ Spinning one of the tales of Islam through dance. Kuda Kepang brings alive the Wali Songgo ( Nine Saints ) of Java who rode through Java on horseback, transfixing audiences with stories of their faith.
The Kuda Kepang dance is performed accompanied by a rich rendition of traditional music played with Malay and Javanese instruments such as gong, gendang, saron and angklung, with the rhythm mimicking the galloping of horses.
Presented by PUSAKA in collaboration with their partner-performers, the Kumpulan Kuda Kepang Parit Raja, for the George Town Festival. ]
