Rebana
The rebana or terbangan is a tambourine that is used in Islamic devotional music in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, and Singapore. The sound of the rebana often accompany Islamic ritual such as the zikir. The name rebana came from the Arabic word robbana ("our Lord"). The rebana is also used by the Cham people of Cambodia and also gave rise to the Rabana which is used by the Sinhalese people of Sri Lanka.
It is also used by the Cape Malays in Cape Town, South Africa.
The rebana is also used among the Cham and Malay ethnic groups in Cambodia. A large variation of the rebana is used in the Yike theatre of Cambodia where it is called skor yike ស្គរយីកេ (or yike drum).
Rebana in Indonesia is particularly associated with the Muslim community, such as the Ponoraganese in Java, Minang in Sumatra and the Betawi in Jakarta.
In Ponorogo Rebana called Kompang has been around since the 15th century, a change to the buddha drum. Kompang is used as a typical Islamic musical instrument, the largest form of tambourine in the world is in Ponorogo. Kompang Ponorogo is spread in various cities on the island of Java, because many students study at traditional Pesantren Islamic of boarding schools in Ponorogo. Until Kompang Ponorogo spread to the Malay area after the son of a famous Pesantren of Islamic boarding school owner married the daughter of the Sultan of Selangor, the Ponorogo delegation showed the art of Kompang to the audience at the wedding. Kompang Ponorogo was favored by the people of Selangor and neighboring kingdoms such as Johor, Riau, Pattani, Brunei and Sabah.
The Minang people of West Sumatra use rebana in their traditional dance.
The redep or redap is a type of rebana from Palembang, South Sumatra. It is usually colored in red, black, and gold; a typical color in Palembang art. The redep is part of the kulintang ensemble of southern Sumatra, sometimes together with the serunai (oboe-like double reed) and a violin. These combinations suggest a combined influence of Buddhist, Hindu, Portuguese, Malay and Western Asia, Arab origins. West Asian music influenced southern Sumatra since the early 16th century when a Muslim sultanate of mixed Javanese and Arab blood reigned in Palembang.
The rebana in Jakarta is particularly associated with the Muslim community of Betawi, often found in Central and South Jakarta. Each kampong in Jakarta has its own rebana, for example, Rebana Burdah can be found in Kuningan Barat Kelurahan (Mampang Prapatan Subdistrict), while Rebana Maukhid is from Pejaten Kelurahan (Pasar Minggu Subdistrict). Rebana may be used in a wedding ritual or in a circumcision ceremony.
