PALDONG

The paldong is a traditional lip-valley flute of the Kalinga tribes in the Philippines. The paldong
is made of bamboo. Its upper edge is cut away obliquely from the backside, and then cut away
slightly from the frontside. The player's lower lip is placed against the cut away surface. The
paldong is open at both ends, with a total of four finger holes; three in front, one at the back.

The melodies played on the lip-valley flute are mostly improvisatory. When given titles, the titles
describe what the music is trying to simulate such as the chirping of a bird, the cry of an eagle,
the buzz of a wasp, etc. It is a solo instrument usually used by men for serenades or courting
women, or merely for leisure and to pass the time away.

REASON

Padlong is easy to use like a flute and paldong is made of bamboo.

KULINTANG

Kulintang is a modern term for an ancient instrumental form of music composed on a row of
small, horizontally laid gongs that function melodically, accompanied by larger, suspended
gongs and drums. As part of the larger gong-chime culture of Southeast Asia, kulintang music
ensembles have been playing for many centuries in regions of the Eastern Indonesia, the
Southern Philippines, Eastern Malaysia, Brunei and Timor,[6] Kulintang evolved from a simple
native signaling tradition, and developed into its present form with the incorporation of knobbed
gongs from Sunda.[5] Its importance stems from its association with the indigenous cultures that
inhabited these islands prior to the influences of Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Christianity or the
West, making Kulintang the most developed tradition of Southeast Asian archaic gong-chime
ensembles.

Technically, kulintang is the Ternate, Mollucas, Maguindanao, and Timor term for the idiophone
of metal gong kettles which are laid horizontally upon a rack to create an entire kulintang set.[7]
It is played by striking the bosses of the gongs with two wooden beaters. Due to its use across a
wide variety groups and languages, the kulintang is also called kolintang by the Sulawesi and
those in Maranao, totobuang by those in central Maluku, kulintangan and gulintangan by those in
Sabah and the Sulu Archipelago.[8]

REASON

Kulintang is the graceful, slow and relaxed movements of playing

SLUDOY

The skin of a single node of bamboo is raised forming 5 strings. These are raised from the body
with frets underneath. A ring of woven bamboo strips is placed at the end of the bamboo node to
keep the strings from further stripping. One side of the body is cracked to allow the sound to
vibrate along the length of the instrument. The sludoy is played by plucking the strings with the
fingers.

REASON

Sludoy is easy to played. Played by plucking the strings with the fingers.

DADABUAN
The dabakan is a single-headed Philippine drum, primarily used as a supportive instrument in the
kulintang ensemble. Among the five main kulintang instruments, it is the only non-gong element
of the Maguindanao ensemble.The Islamic influences in this drum from the Southern Philippine
Islands contributed to its name, goblet shape, mother-of-pearl inlay, and leaf decoration. The
drum is blackened by rubbing oil and root into the carved palm wood. It is played with two rattan
sticks.

REASON

Dadabuan is like a drum and I want to learned how to played.

BALLROOM DANCE

Ballroom dance is a set of partner dances, which are enjoyed both socially and competitively
around the world. Because of its performance and entertainment aspects, ballroom dance is also
widely enjoyed on stage, film, and television.

Ballroom dance may refer, at its widest definition, to almost any type of partner dancing as
recreation. However, with the emergence of dancesport in modern times, the term has become
narrower in scope and traditionally refers to the five International Standard and five International
Latin style dances (see dance categories below). The two styles, while differing in technique,
rhythm and costumes, exemplify core elements of ballroom dancing such as control and
cohesiveness. Developed in England,[1] the two styles are now regulated by the World Dance
Council (WDC) and the World DanceSport Federation (WDSF). In the United States, two
additional variations are popular: American Smooth and American Rhythm, which combine
elements of the Standard and Latin styles with influences from other dance traditions.
