Definition

  • One or more strings are stretched between fixed points. The string bearer and the resonator are organically united and cannot be separated without destroying the instrument. The plane of the strings lies at right angles to the soundtable; a tall stringholder or bridge holds the strings at successive levels, their sounding lengths increasing with their distance from the soundtable. A carved extension of the resonator forms the socket for the shaft of the neck (illustrated in S.C. DeVale 'African Harps: Construction, Decoration and Sound' Sounding Forms ed. M-T Brincard, [New York, 1989] p.56 figure 6.3a). (en)
