Flute
Size: 39cm

Stock Code: 610-FLU-001
Price: £3.95 each

Quantity

Indian flutes may be called many things in India: bansi, bansuri, murali, venua and many more. The bansuri is not just a musical instrument, because it has a great cultural and religious significance. Typically made of bamboo or reed. There are two varieties; transverse and fipple. The transverse variety is nothing more than a length of bamboo with holes cut into it. This is the preferred flute for classical music because the embouchure gives added flexibility and control. The fipple variety is found in the folk and filmi styles, but seldom used for serious music. This is usually considered to be just a toy because the absence of any embouchure limits the flexibility of the instrument.

Ghungroo (Leather)
Size: 12cm

Stock Code: 610-GHU-001
Price: £5.45 each

Quantity

A ghungroo is one of many small metallic bells strung together to form ghungroos, a musical accessory tied to the feet of classical Indian dancers. The sounds produced by ghungroos vary greatly in pitch depending on their metallic composition and size. Ghungroos serve to accentuate the rhythmic aspects of the dance and allow complex footwork to be heard by the audience. They are worn immediately above the ankle, resting on the lateral malleolus and medial malleolus. A string of ghungroos can range from 50 to greater than 200 bells knotted together. A novice child dancer may start with 50 and slowly add more as she grows older and advances in her technical ability. Ghungroos are worn in traditional performances of the classical Indian dance forms: bharatnatyam, kuchipudi, odissi, and kathak.
