Archaic Bamboo Instruments explores how current residents of
Bandung, Indonesia, have (re-) adopted bamboo musical instruments
to forge meaningful bridges between their past and present-between
traditional and modern values. The book grapples with ongoing
issues of global significance, including musical environmentalism,
heavy metal music, the effects of first-world hegemonies on
developing countries, and cultural "authenticity." Bamboo music's
association with the Sundanese landscape, old agricultural
ceremonies, and participatory music making, as well as its
adaptability to modern society, make it a fertile site for an
ecomusicological study.
