Abstract: Tabuh Kreasi "Olah Ulah" is a musical composition inspired by the concept of tri guna, three basic human natures: animals, rajas, and tamas that are different from each other. Satwam is calm, honest, kind and wise. Rajas' nature is arrogant and haughty, while Tamas's nature is lazy and greedy. The three basic properties are interrelated and cannot be separated from each other. The concept is poured through the media revealed Gamelan Semara Dhana, a new Gamelan barungan in the karawitan of Bali. The method of creation used refers to the book "Panca Sthiti Ngawi Sani" by I Wayan Dibia. In this book, five stages are mentioned, namely the Inspiration Stage (Ngawirasa), the Exploration Stage (Ngewacak), the Conception Stage (Ngerencana), the Execution Stage (Ngewangun), and Ngebah. The form and structure of the work "Olah Ulah" is based on the concept of triangga that is pengawit, pengawak, pengecet. Pengawit describes the nature of sattwam: wise, honest, and calm. Pengawak describes the nature of rajas and tamas: arrogant, haughty and lazy. Pengecet describe the neutralization of these three properties so that balance is a sattwam trait.
