A gangsa is a type of metallophone which is used mainly in Balinese and Javanese Gamelan music. In
Balinese gong kebyar styles, there are two types of gangsa typically used: the smaller, higher pitched
kantilan and the larger pemade.
Among the Kalinga people in the Cordillera region of Luzon Island, the gangsa is played in two ways. One
way is called "toppaya" and the other is called "palook." In "toppaya" style, the musicians play the
surface of the gangsa with their hand while in a sitting position, with a single gangsa resting on the lap of
each musician. In the "palook" style, a gangsa is suspended from the musician's left hand and played
with a padded stick held in the musician's right hand. In the "palook" style of playing, the players are
standing, or they keep in step with the dancers while bending forward slightly.
