Heng Gongs Series:

Gongs are amongst the oldest musical instruments in the world dating back to the second millenium AD and possibly longer. Throughout history gongs have accompanied religious ceremonies, govenment functions, songs, orchestras and theatre performances particularly in Asia. Although still used in these ways, today the applications in which gongs can accompany different musical situations is endless.

Now gongs can be heard with countless artists, instruments, bands and other contemporary musical ensembles as well as orchesras and theatre companies everywhere. The addition of gongs both in the live music arena and the recording studio have brought another dimension of colourful creative options to the musical boiling pot.

On their own gongs are widely used for meditation, spiritual healing and are great additions around the home or business as a centerpiece, chime or even a funky door bell.
