accompaniment
•Accompaniment is the musical
part that provides the rhythmic
and/or harmonic support for the
melody or main themes of a song
or instrumental piece.
•Some of the bamboo
instruments in the Lowlands of
Luzon are percussion
instruments. Other brass
instruments are also labeled as
percussion such as cymbals,
snare drums, and bass drums.
•These instruments are used for
rhythmic accompaniment. String
instruments such as guitar and bajo
de uñas are used for melodic
accompaniment along with the wind
instruments belonging to brass and
bamboo families.
•In a melodic accompaniment, the
instrument has a pitch to follow
while the rhythmic accompaniment
follows no pitch since it only uses
rhythm. Instruments for rhythmic
accompaniment follow a certain
rhythmic pattern that can create a
beautiful harmony.
Remember!
•Instruments using melodic
accompaniment utilize notes and
chords.
• Instruments using rhythmic
accompaniment utilize rhythmic
patterns.
•Melodic percussion instruments take one
of three main forms:
- Collections of individual pitched
percussion instruments in different
pitches, such as hand bells and the
angklung.
- Instruments that produce different
pitches when struck in different places,
such as the steel drum.
• What is a rhythmic instrument?
- a musical instrument that is played
to provide a strong beat to a piece of
music: Often played bass guitar as a
lead rather than rhythm instrument
giving their unique sound.

Chordophones
•are instruments that produce sound by vibrating
strings.
•any of a class of musical instruments in which a
stretched, vibrating string produces the initial
sound.
•Some of its examples are:
•Guitars
•Banjo
•Harp

membrane.
• any of a class of musical instruments in which a
stretched membrane vibrates to produce sound.
•Some of its examples are:
•Drums
•Tambourines
•Gongs
 Idiophones
• are instruments that create sound through vibrating
themselves.

material—such as wood, metal, or stone—vibrates to
produce the initial sound.
•Some of its examples are:
•Cymbals
•Maracas
•Bells
 Electrophones
•are instruments that produce sound electronically or
produce its initial sound traditionally and then amplified
electronically, for instance, the electric guitar.

sound either is produced by electronic means or is
conventionally produced (as by a vibrating string) and
electronically amplified.

•Some of its examples are:

•Electric guitar
 Angklung

•Angklung is a musical instrument made of two

bamboo tubes attached to a bamboo frame. The
tubes are carved so that they have a resonant
pitch when struck. The two tubes are tuned to
octaves. The base of the frame is held with one
hand while the other hand shakes the instrument
rapidly from side to side.
