{"title":"Indian Strings","description":"\u003cp\u003eInstruments from a one-string ektara you can learn in an afternoon to concert sitars that take a maker months. What connects them is that on every one of them the sound is made by a bridge, and on the best of them that bridge is filed by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat word is \u003cstrong\u003ejawari\u003c\/strong\u003e: the wide, gently curved bridge that turns a plain plucked string into the shimmering, overtone-rich sound people recognise as Indian. A sitar or tanpura is judged almost entirely on it. Two instruments with identical wood, identical dimensions and identical string counts will sound completely different depending on whose hands dressed the jawari, and it is the reason serious buyers here shop by maker rather than by specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere to start\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want the melody instrument of North Indian classical music, that is the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sitar\"\u003esitar\u003c\/a\u003e.

According to the chosen key or the raga that you want to play, you may tune the Santoor differently. Santoor maestro Pt. Shivkumar Sharma plays his Santoor with a diatonic tuning i.e. all strings of the Santoor are tuned to the chosen scale. This has the wonderful effect that the strings that are not struck reverberate and resonate at the same time. This produces a particularly beautiful and full sound. A further advantage is that you cannot strike a wrong note since all the strings are in tune.This tuning is the most common.; You may also tune the Santoor chromatically. The 15 notes on the right are tuned to the diatonic scale whereas the strings on the left then complete the half-tones that are missing in the diatonic scale (corresponds to white and black keys of the piano).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the packing as soon as it arrives so the instrument can air and settle into tune.

Sa - c 2. Re - d 3. Ga - e 4. Ma - f 5. Pa - g 6. Dha - a 7. Ni - h 8. high Sa - c' 9. high Re - d'; SYMPATHETIC STRINGS RIGHT - middle and low rows of pegs; 1. Low Pa - G 2. Low Dha - A 3.

High Ga - e'; For the upper sympathetic strings right and left: You can select the tuning of these strings freely. It usually conforms to the notes that are to be stressed. The tuning of these strings can be handled relatively freely -- depending on which sounds are to be emphasised. The tonal range, however, is mostly between Sa and Pa since all strings have the same length and thickness.; TUNING VIDEOS; Here are two videos that will help you understand the tuning of a Sarangi in a much better way: Part 1:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMade by us, in our own workshop near Delhi.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the packing as soon as it arrives so the instrument can air and settle into tune.

According to the chosen key or the raga that you want to play, you may tune the Santoor differently. Santoor maestro Pt. Shivkumar Sharma plays his Santoor with a diatonic tuning i.e. all strings of the Santoor are tuned to the chosen scale. This has the wonderful effect that the strings that are not struck reverberate and resonate at the same time. This produces a particularly beautiful and full sound. A further advantage is that you cannot strike a wrong note since all the strings are in tune.This tuning is the most common.; You may also tune the Santoor chromatically. The 15 notes on the right are tuned to the diatonic scale whereas the strings on the left then complete the half-tones that are missing in the diatonic scale (corresponds to white and black keys of the piano).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMade by us, in our own workshop near Delhi.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the packing as soon as it arrives so the instrument can air and settle into tune.

According to the chosen key or the raga that you want to play, you may tune the Santoor differently. Santoor maestro Pt. Shivkumar Sharma plays his Santoor with a diatonic tuning i.e. all strings of the Santoor are tuned to the chosen scale. This has the wonderful effect that the strings that are not struck reverberate and resonate at the same time. This produces a particularly beautiful and full sound. A further advantage is that you cannot strike a wrong note since all the strings are in tune.This tuning is the most common.; You may also tune the Santoor chromatically. The 15 notes on the right are tuned to the diatonic scale whereas the strings on the left then complete the half-tones that are missing in the diatonic scale (corresponds to white and black keys of the piano).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the packing as soon as it arrives so the instrument can air and settle into tune.
