Canang
















The canang is made from two gongs which are suspended by light ropes in a wooden frame.  The gongs are of differing diameters.  The smaller gong is the anak (child) and is eight to ten inches in diamter.  The larger is the ibu (parent) and is ten to twelve inches in diameter.  The gongs are hand-cast from brass and hand-shaped to achieve the desired tone.  The canang is struck with a mallet for performance.
