Bulbul thara is not new to me since my age of 3. But now it looks strange to me. A passion to research about it. I remember the day that my grandfather played this musical instrument during one christmas season for songs. It sounds good when i again say it in working condition, but with lot of faults.
And i don't know about this instrument in detail. The reason i posted this is to get
feed back from anyone who knew it.
But i can describe the instrument upto my knowledge. It is a rectangular wooden hollow clock,
tied with 5 strings horizontally. One more horizontal wooden block is mounted on the string with keys attachment. Keys are arranged in such a way that when it is pressed it touches the string accordingly.
It should be striked in right hand on its string &keys are played in left hand like piano.
When i googled about this i could't find anything about its history and all. But A.r rahaman
used this instrument in kuchi-kuchi rakkamma song from the movie bombay.
If anyone knows about this , please tell me where it originated and whatever
you know about it.
I can't classify this. Because it has both key in a board & strings like guitar.
