Rapa'i is a traditional Acehnese musical instrument which is played by beating it with bare hands.
Rapa'i is made of wood and animal skins from cows and goats.
Rapa'i forms such as tambourines, and various types ranging from Rapa'i Pasee (played by hanging), Rapa'i daboh, Rapa'i Geurimpeng (Rapa'i Kinds), Rapa'i and Rapa'i Anak.
Rapa'i is guided by a leader called the syech. a syech guides by playing a musical pattern with a certain tone and is followed by 8 to 12 players.
OK, here are some photos that I took during the Rapa'i festival in Aceh.
I hope you enjoy it and I really hope you can visit Aceh to enjoy how exciting the implementation of Rapa'i Pasee is.
Thank you all for your attention, best regard
