About Sitar

Sitar is one of the most well known Indian musical instruments. Sitar is a long necked instrument with an interesting construction. Acoustic sitars typically have a gourd acting as the resonating chamber. A distinctive feature are the curved frets, which are moveable (allowing fine variation in tuning) and raised (so that resonant, or sympathetic, strings can run underneath the frets, giving a very lush sound). A typical sitar has 18, 19 or 20 strings depending on the style. There are 6 in the Vilayat Khan style or 7 in the Ravi Shankar style, playable strings on top and 11, 12 or 13 sympathetic strings or tarbs under the frets. The strings can be tuned using both the pegs on the sides or the 'beads' at the bottom, which are mainly for fine tuning.

Sitar is used in a variety of genres. It is played in north Indian classical music, film music and western fusion music.
