Hello my friends! In this post, I would like to tell you something about traditional instruments in Indonesia. As we know, Indonesia is a rich country and has many cultures.. one of them are traditional instruments. Traditional instruments in Indonesia are very popular, for example like Gamelan, Kecapi suling, and Angklung. Traditional Instruments usually came from Java,Sumatera, and Kalimantan.
The most popular traditional instruments from Indonesia is Gamelan. In Central Java, gamelan is intricate and meticulously laid out. The central melody is played on a metallophone in the center of the orchestra, while the front elaboration and ornamentation on the melody, and at the back, the gongs slowly punctuate the music. There are many students in Labsky who play this instrument.
Kecapi suling is a form of Sundanese music from West Java. Many hotels in Indonesia, especially in Bali, and other parts of the world like in Shenzhen China play this Sundanese instrument in their lobbies. Malaysia itself invited Sundanese Kecapi Suling experts from the Province of West Java to teach their expertise in Malaysia. Kecapi suling is very unique instrument I think, so lets preserve this instrument!
Angklung is a bamboo musical instrument native to Sundanese people of West Java. It is made out of bamboo tubes attached to a bamboo frame. The tubes are carved so that they have a distinctive resonant pitch when being vibrated. Each of three or more performers in an angklung ensemble play just one note, but altogether complete melodies are produced. When I was little, I loved to play this instrument because it was very interesting, especially when I played it with my best friends :).
So, I conclude that Indonesia has many unique cultures from sabang until marauke, don’t let other countries steal our cultures!!! :D
