Dictionary of the Sunda Language by Jonathan Rigg, published in 1862 in Batavia, wrote that Angklung is a musical instrument made ​​of bamboo pipes, which cut the edges, resembling the pipes in an organ, and tied together in a frame, vibrated to produce sound. Angklung is listed as Masterpieces of Oral Heritage and Human Nonbendawi of UNESCO since November 2010.

No clue since when angklung used, but primitive forms alleged to have been used in Neolithic culture that flourished in the archipelago until the beginning of the modern calendar, so angklung is part of the relics of the pre-culture of Hinduism in the archipelago. The type of bamboo used as a musical instrument is a black bamboo and bamboo white. Each tone of the sound produced from tube bamboo that shaped
