Description
are made of bronze with the dragon image etched into them. The center “bell” or “nipple” helps create a clear, beautiful tone when struck. Smaller gongs will have high, clear tones. As the gongs get larger, the tone gets lower and deeper.
Traditionally, dragons were associated with water. The dragon was a form of a four fold deity of the sky: clouds, rain, thunder and lightening. Villagers commonly enjoyed the dragon dance to invoke rain.
The 24 Dragon Gong rings a solid tone, low and powerful. The carving on the Dragon Gong reminds us of a sunny day when the king landed at Dai La. He looked up into the sky and saw a golden dragon rise.
Ah, thats very fortunate, he said. Thus naming the new capital Thang Long, or City of the Soaring Dragon when Hanoi stands today.
