Esraj Anime Drawing Sketches
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
I made a new sketch featuring the Esraj music instrument. The instrument was made in India, about 300 years ago. It is very similar to a Sitar.
Only that it uses a bow. The instrument is a modernized version of the Dilruba. It was a smaller version, that made it more convenient to be carried on horseback.
By the 1980s, the instrument was barely played. It regained popularity through the Gurmat Sangeet movement.
The Rabindranath Tagore made learning this instrument a requirement. These days this instruments is pretty well known in India.
I hope you find this information useful. This is Teresita Blanco, the Artsy Sister. Bye, Bye and God bless.
On a side note, I finished a new book. It is currently in the editing process. It will probably get published before Halloween.
