Bulbul Tarang




Also known as Indian Banjo, Bulbul Tarang is a folk musical instrument common in India. It literally means ‘waves of nightingales.’ This handmade string instrument comprises an array of strings, which when played resembles a fingerboard. These strings have a series of keys similar to piano or a typewriter key board. When a key is pressed it in turn pinches the string, and as a result, sound is produced.
