  1. The islands of Indonesia are famous for their Gamelan (pronounced Gam-I-lan) bands. Most of the instruments in a Gamelan band come from the tuned percussion family. Tuned percussion instruments are Instruments that you hit that produce many different pitches. The word Gamelan means “struck with a hammer”

    The gamelan is at the center of the art-music tradition of Indonesia. It may range in size from a few to over 75 instruments. The basic melodic instrument is the saron (bronze xylophone), accompanied by various gongs, a kind of violin, a recorder-flute and/or a zither; the group is led by a drummer.
