BulletPoint1 : Hidden in the Himalayas for centuries, and largely unknown to the outside world, exists an instrument that has amazing similarities to the modern violin: The Nepali Sarangi.
BulletPoint10 : The weight of this Sarangi is 1800 grams (appox.) This Sarangi Ganesh is 52-56 cm in length and 15 -20 cm in breadth.
BulletPoint2 : The soaring mountains of the Himalayas are covered in trees that seem to touch the clouds, and mountain goats are abundantly peppered throughout the terrain. Nepal is famous for its high quality, beautiful woodworking crafts, and the folk instruments native to Nepal are no exception.
BulletPoint3 : The Nepali Sarangi is made entirely of wood, goatskin and glue. The instrument is carved out of a single log of wood, hollowed out inside, and the peg box is often carved into a beautiful bird, to represent the free spirit of the birds which fly from tree to tree throughout the mountains.
BulletPoint4 : The bottom of the sarangi is covered in goatskin, creating resonance and amplification, while the top is left open to release the sound.
BulletPoint5 : Three strings out of four are played using the fingernails touching the side of the string. 1 string remains untouched as a drone string. Stopping the string with the fingernails allows the fingers to be free from rigid pressure or force, allowing the wide vocabulary of ornamentation slides & glissandos to occur easily & freely. The instrument is held on the knee, keeping the throat free for singing
BulletPoint6 : The shape of the top sound hole represents the shape of the decoration of the Kumare’s third eye, and the pointed bottom resembles the beak of a bird. The Nepali Sarangi is considered to be a feminine instrument, and the mythology speaks of how the heavenly Apsaras (female spirits) inspire The Gandharvas on earth. The shape of the top sound hole represents the shape of the decoration of the Kumare’s third eye, and the pointed bottom resembles the beak of a bird.
BulletPoint7 : The player gives the bird its wings. As the instrument is played each player’s unique spirit, soul, and song is set free, just like the birds flying from tree to tree high in the Himalayas.
BulletPoint8 : All bowed string players are aware of the capability of their instruments to express any sort of emotion that can be known, and those that are even unknown, through the movement and energy of their bow strokes. The sarangi is no exception, and those new to the instrument are invited to listen to its range, capability, and versatility.
BulletPoint9 : The Sarangi plays an important role in Nepali history, mythology, and society, and is emerging out of the clouds of the Himalayas into the global, interconnected world

ProductDescription : This sarangi has special Hand carved Shape of lord Ganesh. He is the god of wisdom and learning, as well as the remover of obstacles, and consequently the sign of auspiciousness.. Traditional Nepali Sarangi is made up of a single piece of wood. Having a neck and hollowed-out double-chambered body, they are often made from woods of trees. While the upper chamber is left open, the lower opening. The neck is fretless, and the strings are tied upon and tuned with the tuning pegs. The size of Sarangi differs according to the players' preference... The Nepali Sarangi consists of Three or four strings. The original strings were made up of sheep intestine, similar to the use of catgut (made from the intestines of cattle) in many musical traditions around the world. The Gandharba received intestines of sheep sacrificed during major festivals like Dashain, which they left in a pot for some days. Once the entrails was fully rotten, it was pulled out, leaving behind the fine nerves of the intestine in the pot. These were then woven to make strings. However these days, badminton strings, nylon and steel strings have generally replaced gut strings. The bow was traditionally strung with horse tail-hair, but, in the modern days, nylon bowstrings are common.
