[VIDEO] Music of the Mindanao Muslims Uwang Ahadas
To preserve indigenous music, he
teaches his village members how to play the kwintangan kayu. He began by
teaching his children and then extended his knowledge to individuals outside of
his village. Despite having a vision problem and diminishing vision, he managed
to maintain and promote Yakan music, even if it meant exhausting travel from
place to place. Kwintangan Kayu is made up of five different-sized hardwood
logs that are hung horizontally in order from shortest to longest. This is
played after the rice has been served to serenade the palay. The MUSIC of the
kwintangan kayu is said to bring a plentiful crop.
