Mermay Day 22: Ravanahatha

A stringed instrument from northern India that is the prelude to the violin.

(Sorry for the late post! I had a high fever, so I couldn't work on it, but luckily, I am feeling a bit better now.)

A man playing a traditional Rajasthani Indian instrument called a Ravanahatha. The Ravanahatha is said to be an ancient ancestor to the violin.

Towering view of the mehrangrah fort, with its mesmerising perspectives. The tune of ravanahatha (folk string instrument similar to violin) makes for a prefect setting to enjoy this historical marvel.

Por casualidad me ha salido este señor indio después de un vídeo de Ennio Morricone. Me gusta su sonido y su actitud. Es sorprendente lo poco que sabemos de muchas músicas étnicas en Europa. Deberíamos investigar más, interesarnos más. 

Como tengo poca idea del folklore hindú más allá de tablas, sitares y algún que otro instrumento más que se puso de moda, de forma un tanto absurda, en el pop de los años sesenta, transcribo lo que explica el tío que ha colgado el vídeo:

“Tañidor de ravanahatha tocando música folk rajasthani en Jaisalmer (Rajasthan, India). El ravanahatha (ravanhatta, ravanastron o ravana hasta veena) es un instrumento de cuerda popular en el oeste de la India”.
