106 | Balinese Barong Fire Dance. Kecak is a form of Balinese dance and music drama, originated in the 1930s Bali and is performed primarily by men. Also known as the Ramayana Monkey Chant, the piece, performed by a circle of 150 or more performers wearing checked cloth around their waists, percussively chanting "cak" and throwing up their arms, depicts a battle from the Ramayana where the monkey-like Vanara helped Prince Rama fight the evil King Ravana. | |
