311.22(True) stick zithers   Link to MIMO collections

Definizione

  • One or more strings are stretched between fixed points. The instrument consists of a string bearer, or of a string bearer with a resonator which is not integral and can be detached without destroying the sound-producing apparatus. The string carrier is a rigid stick. NB: round sticks which happen to be hollow by chance do not belong on this account to the tube zithers, but are round bar zithers; however, instruments in which a tubular cavity is employed as a true resonator, like the modern Mexican harpa, are tube zithers.
