🎼Setar -Iranian musical instruments that combine tenderness and power塞塔尔-温柔与力量并济的伊朗乐器#未知莫识 #一器一会乐器合

The secret of exotic customs and important musical instruments from Iran. A setar (Persian: سهتار, pronounced [seˈt̪ʰɒːɾ]) is a stringed instrument, a type of lute used in Persian traditional music, played solo or accompanying voice.It is a member of the tanbur family of long-necked lutes with a range of more than two and a half octaves. Originally a three stringed instrument, a fourth string was added by Mushtaq Ali Shah by the mid 19th century. It is played with the index finger of the right hand. It has been speculated that the setar originated in Persia by the 9th century C.E. A more conservative estimate says "it originated in the 15th century, or even earlier." Although related to the tanbur, in recent centuries, the setar has evolved so that, musically, it more closely resembles the tar, both in tuning and playing style. Yotam Sivan , an Israeli musician, plays the Azerbaijani instrument Tar and the Iranian instrument Setar. He studies the traditional Middle Eastern and Central Asian music modes Maqam and Radif. He served in the Israeli military and then worked in construction. He began to get in touch with music and followed the guidance of the sound through the desert and Central Asia.. "I didn&realize that there was Iranian classical music in the world until I was in my 20s." Yotam said: "At the beginning, I just listened to a lot of different music. The more I listened, the more I wanted to play it myself, and then I slowly started to learn from my friends."...
