One of the musical instruments in the History of Java
Museum Yogyakarta is the Rebab musical instrument. You must be familiar when
you hear the rebab instrument. Here we will get to know more about the history
of the rebab instrument in the History of Java Museum Yogyakarta. Rebab was discovered in the 19th century in Banten, West Java. Instrument's of rebab are made of ivory, wood, coconut, shell, and leather.
Getting to know The Historical of Rebab
At first, rebab became famous in Cordoba to
western Europe in the 8th century. Then it continued to develop into Cello
and Violin. Along with the times, this musical instrument entered the
archipelago through Turkish and Central Asian traders to Persia.
We often hear this musical instrument in Betawi art,
which accompanies wayang kulit performances.
In addition, rebab's instrument is from a noble
family in Java. Equipped with two-legged support in the form of a dragon
carving and the swipe is a decoration with a dog pattern, dragon head, and
tail. Its placement is on the side of the seat.
There are things that must be maintained and considered properly when making rebab, so that the resulting sound quality is good. We also need to realize that today's young generation needs to maintain and preserve traditional objects, so they don't become extinct. In the History of Java Museum, Yogyakarta is also one of the favorite tourist attractions for young people. It is not only a nature tour, but a trip to the museum is also an exciting thing and adds new insights for young people.
