Adding To My Collection

Posted on January 13, 2024

1/13/99: Bummer! I forgot to give Andy one of his CDs with media files on it for the brochures, so this morning we took a taxi to Granyar, a nearby town, and shipped it to them via a courier service… On another note (haha!), I’ve been adding to my collection of musical instruments, which I started at the beginning of this trip. I was so inspired by the gamelan orchestra the other day, that today, we purchased a Balinese flute made out of a bamboo stalk and etched with the image of a dragon… We also booked a tour of the surrounding area for tomorrow. Rice terraces, here we come…

NOTE: The photo above shows the beautiful bamboo flute that I purchased on the island of Bali, in Indonesia.

 

Various close-ups of the bamboo flute that I bought on the island of Bali, in Indonesia, showing the intricate etching of a dragon that adorns the length of the flute..

I also purchased an Angklung in Indonesia. This is a 2-octave set of bamboo rattles, tuned to a major scale.
Below is a video of an Indonesian man demonstrating how to play this sort of Angklung.
