ABSTRACT Music education in the Elementary School Teacher Education (PGSD) program is not only oriented toward developing students' musical competencies but also aims to foster creativity, collaborative skills, and professional competence through authentic learning experiences. This study aims to describe the creative process of PGSD students in organizing a gamelan music performance during the Hujan Karya Season 10 Performing Arts Exhibition entitled “Alun dan Ayun: Harmoni Bunyi dalam Ruang Tubuh.” A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, involving fourth-semester PGSD students of Universitas Muhammadiyah Kuningan from classes 4A–4F and the employee class, selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, and subsequently analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, supported by source and method triangulation. The findings indicate that students' creative processes were reflected in the selection of Sundanese songs, the allocation of gamelan instruments according to individual competencies, the development of musical arrangements, and the implementation of collaborative performances. These activities contributed to improving students' creativity, musical skills, communication abilities, teamwork, self-confidence, and appreciation of local culture. The findings suggest that collaborative gamelan performances based on project-based learning provide an authentic learning model that effectively integrates local cultural preservation with the development of pedagogical, professional, social, and personal competencies among prospective elementary school teachers ABSTRAK Pembelajaran seni musik pada Program Studi Pendidikan Guru Sekolah Dasar (PGSD) tidak hanya berorientasi pada penguasaan keterampilan musikal, tetapi juga diarahkan untuk membentuk kreativitas, kemampuan berkolaborasi, dan kompetensi profesional calon guru melalui pengalaman belajar yang autentik.
