Javanese gamelan, an ensemble typically consists of around 20 to 30 musicians, featuring instruments like metallophones, gongs, drums, and bamboo flutes. Balinese gamelan ensembles are usually smaller, with about 10 to 15 players, incorporating similar instruments but often with more emphasis on rhythm and dynamic interplay. The exact number can vary based on the specific type of gamelan and the performance context.
