The early use of the triangle in an operatic/orchestral setting was often not notated, and simply performed by ear. [4] When a triangle part was notated, it was in steady, repetitive figures providing a march-like character. [7] The triangle was the available instrument in Europe for composers to write rhythmically, and with a metallic color. [4]
The instrument has twenty-three 800 mm (31 in)-long wire strings attached to a bamboo tube with a metal hose-clamp around the top rim. A 4 litres (0.88 imp gal; 1.1 US gal), rectangular olive oil tin, which acts as a resonator, is clamped to the base of the tube. The instrument is capable of playing both Vietnamese and Western music.

Should mention be made of the triangle at the beginning of the John Lennon song "Just Like Starting Over"? It is one of the more easily-recognizable uses of it, that I can think of. Mruss 21:39, 22 March 2007 (UTC) I think the instrument being played may be a tingsha. If verified, the song should be mentioned in that article instead.
