What will be an ideal response?

• Ladrang "Wilujeng" "is in soft-playing style, with voices and various soft-sounding instruments featured."
• In Ladrang "Wilujeng", the rebab (fiddle) in the introduction plays "subtle slides and nuances" that are not possible on fixed pitch instruments such as the bonang (kettle gong) used in the introduction of Kembang Pacar.
• In Ladrang "Wilujeng" "the pattern of punctuation (ladrang) is nearly the same as Kembang Pacar, but it is expanded to fit gongan phrases of thirty-two beats rather than sixteen."
• In Ladrang "Wilujeng" the kempul and kenong players (kettle gongs) do not limit themselves to one tone as in Kembang Pacar but instead use a variety of tones related to important tones in the melody.
