Kalondang is a group of percussion instruments (wooden/bamboo xylophones), which interlock with each other. A clapper sometimes accompanies these instruments. Timbre is much lighter/sweeter than the more heavy percussive instruments heard in other Pak Pak tapes.
Some of the repertoire is played across several instrumental setups (e.g. Ia Maria Ia [track 10] has also been rendered by the Kerongcong ensemble in Tape PP4B).
Some pieces have brief spoken introductions.
