Definition

  • The sun is one of the four metal instruments that are tak, yo, and tak. Even though it is classified as one of the aak musical instruments, it plays role more as a ritual object. It looks like a bell put upside down with a grip made of metal strap. When civil dance performers exit and military dancers enter, the ritual assistants come together shaking the sun. Sitting next to the dancers, the sun is shaked in a regular beat
