P1020549.JPG

The bamboo tube zither "Valiha" on this picture is coming from Madagascar where it is in the focus of a rich tradition, serving as an instrumental item of national identity. The strings can be plucked in interlocking methods by both hands, or it can be used as a chord instrument, "beating" the strings like a guitar. It is an interesting fact that we find tube zithers like this also in Malaysia and Indonesia.

Eine "Valiha" aus Madagaskar, die hier stellvertretend für die Röhrenzithern Asiens steht. Man kann die Saiten abwechselnd oder gleichzeitig mit beiden Händen zupfen, oder das Instrument wie eine Gitarre anschlagen. Die kleinen Bambusstücke sind beweglich und ermöglichen so ein Verstimmen der Saiten.
