The tubes are supported in a square frame, also made of bamboo. Each tube is split open about two-thirds of its length. The bottom of the tube is closed by a node , with two tongues below it, so shaped when the bottom is cut. The tongues sit in a small trough in the base of the frame and move back and forth freely when the instrument is shaken sideways, the sound being created by concussion. A tube is one half the length of the other and the tubes are tuned an octave apart. An angklung player holds the instrument in one hand and shakes it with the other. A melody is performed by providing as many angklungs and players as required by the different pitches of the tube. *History* The angklung in its "crude" form dates back to ancient times, long before the acceptance of the gamelan orchestra, which was introduced into Indonesia with the arrival of Hindu culture. When attractive and more functional Western instruments began pouring in from Europe, interest in the native bamboo instrument waned. Formally introduced into Malaysia sometime after the end of confrontation, it found immediate popularity *Author *Lay Tin Koh *References* (1972, December 3). *The Sunday Mail*, p. 9.
