Recordings

No recordings are published for this instrument yet.

In context

A set of bamboo tubes, each cut to a different length and struck by a different player walking in procession. No one person plays a melody — the pattern only exists between the players, interlocking so tightly that it is easier to learn by walking beside someone than by counting.
