Through 'Rock Anthology', Indra Lesmana and Aksan Sjuman Perform Differently in Bali Island

Kapanlagi.com - Two renowned musicians, Indra Lesmana and Aksan Sjuman, have just performed in the Rock Anthology concert held at L'Atelier Cyril Kongo - Bar The Apurva Kempinski Bali, on Saturday (1/7/2023). What's interesting about the Rock Anthology event is that Indra Lesmana, who is synonymous with jazz music, now has to play with different music.

The father of singer Eva Celia had to play rock music together with Aksan Sjuman. Indra Lesmana admitted that performing songs in Rock Anthology was more about the difficulty of choosing the songs.

"Aksan Sjuman and I found it more difficult to choose songs, especially since there are many legendary rock songs. Because we have to choose songs that are suitable to be performed in Rock Anthology and represent that era, not because the songs are famous. But, we look more at the importance of the work in that era," said Indra Lesmana.

"The good thing about Apurva is that they accept ideas from brilliant people, and we have to acknowledge that," added Aksan Sjuman, in the same opportunity.
