Angklung from Indonesia
Angklung is a multitonal (double pitched) musical instrument that is widespread in Indonesia. This musical instrument is made from bamboo, sounded by shaking it (the sound is caused by the impact of the body of the bamboo pipe) so that it produces a sound that vibrates in a composition of 2, 3, up to 4 notes in each size, both large and small.
There are several types of angklung
1. Angklung gubra
2. Angklung Badeng
3. Padaeng angklung
4. Angklung kanekas

UNESCO, in its Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, has recognized angklung as a World Cultural Heritage.
