About this event
Peni Candra Rini, PhD, is a renowned Javanese singer, educator, and composer, known for blending Javanese Sufi poetry with contemporary music for both Indonesian and Western instruments. The Kronos Quartet calls her "one of the world’s greatest singers." A master of traditional forms like gamelan, she stands out as one of Indonesia’s innovative young composers and one of its few female composers. In 2023, she became the first woman commissioned to compose for the Mangkunegaran court of Central Java, and in 2024, she was honored with the court name Raden Nganten Tumenggung. For this performance, the artist will be joined on stage by musician, ethnomusicologist, and professor Andy McGraw and multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer Shahzad Ismaily.
