134. Sarod
The sarod is a traditional string instrument originating from the Indian subcontinent. It is a fretless, plucked lute, similar in some ways to the sitar, but with a few key differences in construction and playing technique. It typically has a resonating body made of wood, often carved from a single block. The neck is also made of wood and usually has a metal fingerboard. The bridge, which supports the strings, is made of bone or a similar material. The sarod does not have frets on its fingerboard, allowing for a wide range of microtonal nuances in its playing. The sarod is an integral part of Indian classical music, particularly in the Hindustani classical tradition. It is often used as a solo instrument or as accompaniment to vocalists and other instrumentalists. Sarod players undergo rigorous training and study to master the instrument's complex techniques and repertoire.
