the main underlying melodic structure of a gamelan piece, called the "balungan", is grouped into four-beat units (called "gatra"). this typical grouping of four is similar to a great deal of western music; however, in contrast with a bar of four beats in western classical music, the strongest beat in gamelan music falls not on the first of the four beats, but on the last. this last beat is referred to as the "seleh" note.
