Indonesian music

Rebab that arrived in Indonesia

The Javanese Gamelan Instruments

  Types of music in Indonesia: traditional, non-traditional (local) and non-local (western). There are also combinations of them. Examples of unique non-traditional Indonesian music styles are "dangdut" and "keroncong". (If you have information on the above music, please let me know so I can provide the links or information here.) 

Some traditional songs or compositions require specific instruments, such as:

  * gamelan,
  * rebab,
  * arumba,
  * calung,

  * angklung: instruments made of bamboo. If you are in Bandung, visit Saung Mang Udjo.
