EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph depicts two traditional Thai musical instruments, the Ranat Ek and Khong Yai, also known as Thai xylophones or harmonicons. The image is an illustration from "A.J. Hipkins Musical Instruments, Historic, Rare and Unique," published by Adam and Charles Black in Edinburgh in 1888. The illustration was created by William Gibb, a skilled artist and draftsman. Alfred James Hipkins (1826-1903) was a renowned English musicologist who dedicated his career to the history of the pianoforte and various musical instruments. In this publication, he showcased a collection of rare and unique musical instruments from around the world, including these intriguing Thai xylophones. The Ranat Ek and Khong Yai are horizontal xylophones made of wood, with rows of bamboo bars struck with small wooden mallets. The Ranat Ek, or single-row xylophone, features a single row of bars tuned to the pentatonic scale. The Khong Yai, or double-row xylophone, has two rows of bars, allowing for a more extensive range of notes. The Ta Khay, a small gong, is often used as an accompaniment to these instruments. This beautiful chromolithograph not only serves as a visual representation of these unique Thai musical instruments but also contributes to the historical record of their cultural significance. It is a testament to the rich musical heritage of Thailand and the dedication of Alfred James Hipkins to documenting the world's diverse musical traditions.
