The ranat ek (Thai: ระนาดเอก, pronounced [ranâːt ʔèːk],
"alto xylophone") is a Thai xylophone. It has 22 wooden bars suspended by cords over a boat-shaped trough resonator, and is played with two mallets. It is used as a leading instrument in the piphat ensemble.The ranat ek is played by two types of mallets. The hard mallets create the sharp bright sound when they keys are hit.The hard mallets are used for faster playing. The soft mallets create a mellow and softer tone which is used for slower songs.ranat ek bars are typically made from rosewood (Dalbergia oliveri; Thai: ไม้�ชิ งชิ�น; mai ching chan), although in rare instances instruments with bamboo bars can be found.Some ranat ek players are able to play two instruments at the same time, placed at right angles to each other.The ranat ek is very similar to a Cambodian xylophone called roneat ek.

In the beginning of the Bangkok period, after a long period of war, there was a remarkable revival of Thai arts, especially music and drama. The size of the instrumental ensemble was enlarged to 12 musicians and several masterpieces of Thai literature were produced as theatrical performances accompanied by music. Beautiful lyrics written by contemporary poets were fitted into melodies of the Ayutthaya period.All Thai musicians in the past receivedtheir training from their teachers, through
constant playing and singing in their presence. With nothing else to rely upon except their own memory, it was only through much hard work that they gained their technical experience and practical knowledge in playing and singing.
