abstract:Kecak (pronounced , alternate spellings: Ketjak and Ketjack) is a form of Balinese dance and music drama that developed in the 1930s in Bali. It is performed primarily by men, although by 2006, a few women's kecak groups exist.
Perhaps the most famous Balinese dance is the Kecak, where dozens of Balinese sing the rhythmic vocal of the "monkey chant" while waving their upper body and arms.
