The ground-bow or a earth-bow is a single-string bow-shaped folk musical instrument, classified as a chordophone. It is known in cultures of equatorial [1] and south[2] Africa, and in other cultures with African roots. It consists of a flexible stick planted into the ground (possibly a stripped sapling or a branch[3]), with a string from its free end to a resonator of some kind based on a pit in the ground.[3] It looks like a game trap or a child toy, therefore its distribution over Africa used to be overlooked. Hornbostel (1933) classified is in the category of harps, although it has combined characteristics of a harp and a musical bow.[4] The resonator may be a pit covered by a board, with string attached to it.[3] Kruges describes several other constructions by Venda, e.g., the other end of a string is tied to a stone dropped into the pit, with string passing through the board covering the pit, etc.[4] Other names include "ground harp" (Sachs, 1940, History of Musical Instruments) and ground-bass. It is called kalinga or galinga by Venda people. In their language "galinga" means simply a hole in the ground, while the origins of "kalinga" are uncertain.[4] It is known as gayumba in Haiti,[9] Dominican Republic,[5] and tumbandera in Haitian traditions of Cuba.[6][7] Baka people call it angbindi.[8] It is also known in Cuba under the onomatopoeic name tingo-talango (tingotalango).[9][10] Julio Cueva's song Tingo Talango dedicated to this musical instrument describes its construction thus: Si quieren que les describacómo es el tingo talangotráiganme un gajo de güirao si no uno de mango.Se abre un hueco en el suelo,encima una hoja de lata,en el centro un agujerodonde un alambre se ata. Tingo Talango is also the song by Ñico Lora. The instrument is reportedly nearly-extinct in the native cultures.[4][6] Playing techniquesKalinga may be struck by a stick or plucked in various ways. The bow stick may be bent to change the tension of the string, and hence the tone. It can be played in a glissando manner: the stick is bent, struck, and released, producing a peculiar sound. The produced pitches are not always stable.[4]Kalinga is usually is played as a to provide repetitive accompaniment to the choral song.[4] References1. ^"Ground Bow", Encyclopædia Britannica {{Strings (music)}}2. ^[https://books.google.com/books?id=YfCzP-SB8d4C&pg=PA168] 3. ^1 "Arco de tierra", referring to François-René Tranchefort, Los instrumentos musicales en el mundo, {{ISBN|8420685208}}, 1985, and later editions 4. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 Jaco Kruger, [https://www.jstor.org/stable/851766 "Rediscovering the Venda Ground-Bow"], Ethnomusicology,Vol. 33, No. 3 (Autumn, 1989), pp. 391-404 5. ^Fradique Lizardo, Instrumentos musicales indígenas dominicanos, 1975,[https://books.google.com/books?id=IPvZAAAAMAAJ&q=gayumba&dq=gayumba&hl=en&sa=X&ei=Rj-KVbSTBMWpogST34CwCw&ved=0CDQQ6AEwBDgK Section "Gayumba", p.64] 6. ^1 2 Music in Latin America and the Caribbean: An Encyclopedic History , vol.2, [https://books.google.com/books?id=uspTNzJ_NoYC&pg=PA210 p.210] 7. ^ 8. ^ 9. ^"CUBANISM: WHAT IS The “Tíngo Talángo” ?" 10. ^"TINGO TALANGO, son, Auteur : Julio CUEVA 2 : Harps|African music |
