Esraj Musical Instrument With Hard Case

Esraj Musical Instrument With Hard Case.

Product Description

The esraj is a popular bowed instrument used in folk and classical music. It has frets, so it is much easier to play than the sarangi. The sympathetic strings give it a distinctive sound, like a dilruba. Manoj Kumar Sardar is one of the most repected makers in Kolkata, so this is a very fine instrument.

Esraj is an Indian stringed instrument found in two forms throughout the indian subcontinent. It is a relatively young instrument, being only about 300 years old. It is found in North India, primarily punjab, where it is used in sikh music and Hindustani classical compositions and in West Bengal The esraj is a modern variant of the dilruba, differing slightly in structure.

The dilruba and its variant, the esraj, had been declining in popularity for many decades. By the 1980s, the instrument was nearly extinct. However, with the rising influence of the “Gurmat Sangeet” movement, the instrument has been once again attracting attention.

The famous scientist Sayyendra Nath Bose often played the esraj in a corner of his house in Kolkata.
