Surbahar

Deep, sonorous, and contemplative—the Surbahar (bass sitar) lends itself to expansive alap as well as powerful, rhythmic compositions.

About this instrument

The Surbahar extends the sitar’s range downward, inviting slower development of mood and space. I often approach it with a meditative alap to let the overtones bloom, followed by a composed gat to explore rhythmic depth. I’ll share stories here about the instrument’s setup, strings, meend technique, and what drew me to it.
