Come discover the magic of angklung in this beginner workshop! A musical instrument of West Javanese origin, the angklung is made of bamboo and produces a pleasant, resonant sound when shaken. In this workshop, participants will learn basic angklung techniques such as holding the instrument, producing sounds and playing simple melodies as an ensemble. This workshop is open for all, and no prior musical experience is required.
Please meet at the Esplanade Box Office and Visitor Centre (Mezzanine Level) for admission to this workshop as the public entrance to the Rehearsal Studio via the Theatre Studio is temporarily closed.
Please arrive 15 minutes before the start of the workshop as patrons who arrive after the workshop has started will not be admitted into the venue. Thank you.

Co-administered by Faridah Jamal (EMC) – Music Director and Chan Mei Yin (GA) – Logistics Director, it comprises adult musicians who are former students of Faridah Jamal, Gamelan Asmaradana members and those from the larger community.
