ESRAJ - Indian Bowed Instrument
The
Esraj is a stringed instrument that is mainly popular in Bengal
and is used for instance for accompanying Tagore songs wheras
it is hardly ever played as a solo instrument in classical Indian
music. The Esraj has six playing strings and 15 resonance strings.
The neck is equipped with frets as they are found in a similar
shape on the Sitar. The sturdy, solid wooden body is covered
with goat leather, like the Sarod, which serves as resonance
cover. Mounted on this leather cover is a horn bridge which
carries the playing strings that are partly steel and partly
bronze. The resonance strings also go through the bridge. The
Esraj is played with a bow similar to the violin and produces
a sound that is rich in overtones and resonance and which reminds
of old Renaissance instruments from Euroope.
