Unboxing | Uitgepakte Verhalen | Aflevering 5 - Suling (pvc-dwarsfluit)
Aflevering 5 van onze vodcast over immaterieel Moluks erfgoed.
Episode 5 of our vodcast about intangible Moluccan heritage.
The suling: an instrument characteristic of Moluccan communities. Originally made of bamboo, but in the Netherlands Moluccans found an alternative—PVC pipes and even old aluminium tent poles. An instrument that comes to life in ensemble, with self-written songs and inventive notation systems.
Discover in this final episode how the suling is a symbol of resilience, connection and musical genius. What role does this instrument play within Moluccan communities—from church to intimate family gatherings? And how do we pass on this heritage to the next generations?
Yopie Abraham, Isaac Latupeirissa and Deborah Lewarissa discuss the history and future of the suling. Watch and listen to the live recording in theatre ZIMIHC Utrecht
