Kamancheh

The Kamancheh is a traditional Persian musical instrument, similar to a fiddle, often used in Iranian and Central Asian music. It has a pear-shaped body, a long neck, and typically three or four strings that are played with a bow. The sound is rich and expressive, making it suitable for both solo performances and ensemble settings. The Kamancheh is noted for its emotive tone and is an integral part of classical Persian music, reflecting the cultural heritage of the regions where it is played. Its craftsmanship and artistry also make it a significant cultural symbol.
