The rebab is one of the distinguishing instruments of the gamelan gambuh, which is differentiated from other gamelan ensembles by its inclusion of the suling (bamboo flute) and the rebab.

In addition to the suling and rebab, Gamelan Gambuh includes a group of percussion instruments that play fixed interlocking patterns.

Title A name given to the resource Helen's Barn, 1932 Subject The topic of the resource Original Helen's Barn building, photographed in 1932 Description An account of the resource Helen’s Barn was built in 1932 on four acres of land bought with the $2,000 received from the Carnegie Institute for the bravery of her husband, Charlie Wright. After his death in 1927, his widow—left with five children—decided to open a square dance hall. The barn was located in the heart of Highlands, on the corner of 1st and Main Streets, but burned suspiciously in 1934. Apparently, not everyone in Highlands appreciated the music, dance, and beer.
