Description:
Angklung is a musical instrument made out of two bamboo tubes attached to a bamboo frame. The tubes are carved so that they have a resonant pitch when struck. The two tubes are tuned to octaves. The tubes are held in a frame so that a slot on each tube aligns into a cross-piece that strikes the tube when the instrument is shaken. The base of the frame is held with one hand while the other hand shakes the instrument rapidly from side to side. This causes a rapidly repeating note to sound. Thus each of three or more angklung performers in an ensemble will play just one note and together complete melodies are produced. Angklung is popular throughout South East Asia, but originated from Indonesia.
Each angklung may vary slightly from the photo, this is not a flaw but a reflection of the hand crafted origins of this unique product.
