Angklung is a traditional Sundanese musical instrument made from bamboo. The sound comes out when shaking it. One angklung represents one note, so it is usually played in a group.
Saung Angklung Udjo is a group well-known for its angklung performance, kind of the pioneer actually in taking this traditional instrument and introducing it professionally world-wide.
If you ever get the chance to go to Bandung, besides going for shopping & eating...try and stop by at their workshop. Having read many reviews, you won't be disappointed!

I regret myself for not visiting that place when we're in Indonesia last Summer. So typical, now that we are back in States, we wish that we had gone here and there, however, when we were in Indonesia, we felt so dreadful being in the traffic...LOL
