Origins Vol.7: Tar & Chonguri

Tar and Chonguri are two incredibly beautiful eastern string instruments. United, they form the perfect couple for our new Origins Vol. 7. Both are amazingly complementing each other's tonal colors and allow a huge variety of timbres.

The Instruments

The Tar's steel strings are plugged with a plectrum, resulting in a very pure and definite sound. Marvellously reflecting the legendary Persian culture, where the Tar is present since hundreds of years.

The Chonguri with its tender silk strings however adds warmth, depth and richness to their joint timbre. An ode to the enchanting Georgian landscapes, where the instrument originates from.

Played together they merge into a completely new and powerful instrument. Origins Vol. 7: Tar & Chonguri unite best of both worlds just at your fingertips. Taking your listeners on an exciting and manifold journey to the far east.
