"Mas Purbo is one of only a very few dalang who at the same time are first-rate performers of the classical style, but also put forth an original and fresh interpretation of the Mahabharata stories. ...I am truly impressed by him: his crisp delivery of janturan, his sulukan which speak right to the heart, and his mastery of sabetan. He never over-acts."
(Goenawan Mohamed, founder of Tempo magazine and author of the weekly Catatan Pinggir)
