String Instruments

Jamming with sitar and tabla

The signature sound of India undoubtedly comes from the music of the sitar and tabla. With such confined limits placed on popular music, it is remarkable that the sitar has become a somewhat well known instrument. No doubt it should be, but so too should many other world string instruments, such as the shamisen, pipa and oud, to name a few.

The sitar is at its finest when accompanied by the tabla, a couple of Indian hand drums, as seen here. After watching the video, Click Here to view another sitar video.
