Kecak

Kecak is a traditional Balinese dance and music performance that features a chorus of male singers, called "cak," who chant rhythmically while synchronized in movement. Originating from the 1930s, it recreates stories from Hindu epics like the Ramayana through expressive gestures and vocalizations. The performance is typically set around a fire and is known for its hypnotic, chanting sound and dynamic storytelling. Kecak is both a cultural ritual and an engaging art form, showcasing Bali’s rich heritage through its vibrant choreography, layered vocal harmonies, and communal participation.
