Description
Angklung is a type of Balinese gamelan that uses a four-tone ‘major’ sounding, fairly evenly tempered scale. There are hundreds of compositions for this highly rhythmic small sized gamelan set. This new set has four keys on the metallophone instruments and is in South Bali style. An angklung is normally played for cremations and temple ceremonies in some parts of Bali. People also use angklung for competitions in its kebyar form and for new compositions.
