Currently, I am taking Music for PVA taught by a new teacher, Ibu Megan. She is really kind that whenever we ask something to her, she explains step by step which is really understandable. We are playing Kolintang in this class.

Kolintang really looks like xylophone which is made out of wood. Kolintang is originated from Minahasa, a place in North Sulawesi, an island in the east part of Indonesia. Kolintang is related to the traditional belief of Minahasa natives. It was usually played in ancestor worshipping rituals.
