The variety of musical instruments found in India is juat as devierse as the va-
riety of those found in China or Africa. Typical folk lutes include the vina.
Build in many shapes, it always has a wide, long neck with numerous frets
over which four melody string are stringed. The back is a large vina that was
primarily played in northern India.
Most instruments are richly decorated, particularly the sitars. The technique
used to play the sitar is similar to that of the vina, but its timbre differs in the
sympathetic strings that produce the sitar's characteristic sastain.
A pair of drones like those on display on the podium in the middle of the room is used to accompany the sitar.
