Ensemble
One melody spread across players. Watch the rests: for an angklung player, waiting is most of the job.
The whole ensemble plays itself. Watch how many rows are idle at any moment.

Why those numbers are held together
There is one rule and only one: two angklung may be held by the same person when their notes never sound at the same time. If they collide even once, they need two different people.
Player 1 holds 1 (C4) · 5 (G4)
- can be held with G4
- can be held with A4
- can be held with F4
- can be held with E4
- can be held with D4
This is the rule the solver in lib/distribute runs — PRD §6.
A simplification used here: one person holds the same angklung from the beginning of the piece to the end. A real ensemble can swap between sections, and if it does, the number of people needed can be lower than the figure above.
