Angklung is a traditional instrument from Indonesia. Angklung Eindhoven is an angklung ensemble established in September 2010. The group consists of 25 active members, mostly are Indonesian and international students from Eindhoven University of Technology and Fontys University of Applied Science, as well as Eindhoven local residents. We have a broad repertoire ranging from classical and opera music, Indonesian traditional and folksongs, to world pop songs.
With a mission to introduce angklung to wider public in the Netherlands and Europe, we have delivered more than 50 performances in the past five years. Since 2012, we have held annual concerts at Frits Philips Muziekgebouw. In these concerts, we have collaborated with singers and choirs, string and woodwind ensembles, Chinese traditional instruments, as well as Indonesian traditional dancers.
