Native Musical Instruments

The two-stringed guitar on the left is a fegelung. The bowlike instrument
in the center is used for the one-stringed violin on the right, the duwagey.

This bamboo harp is called togo. Because bamboo
abound in Kulaman Plateau, togos are common
in Dulangan Manobo settlements.

This very simple bamboo musical instrument is called kubing.

(Blogger's note: This post is part of a series on items that the Dulangan Manobo people traditionally use in their daily lives. Special thanks to the RNDM nuns assigned in Kulaman Plateau. For more information, read my introductory post or click the label Delesan Menubo below.)
