A popular dance is the Tari P/ring (Dish Dance) in which entranced dancers perform on top of broken dishes. Tari Payung, (Umbrella Dance) portrays a young man's loving protection of his girlfriend. The graceful Tari Li/in (Candle Dance) is performed by girls who rhythmically juggle and balance china saucers on which lighted candles are stuck, clicking ring castanets at the same time. Though also known in Palembang, it originated in West Sumatra. Randai, a combination of literature, sport, song, and drama, is held outdoors at night. It's put on by 20 young men dressed in ge/ambuk trousers and black dress, accompanied by a native Minangkabau orchestra. Using many pencak si/at movements, this dance tells the story of a wicked woman driven from her village. Randai is performed best in the Pagurujung area. Also see a dance demonstrating how a beruk monkey climbs a coconut tree and picks choice coconuts for his owner. In the Dabuih Dance men stick themselves with awls (a show of faith) while in religiously induced trance. Instruments played in West Sumatra include the rebab pasisir, a coastal lute with 3 strings; and gong ensemble music.
