SARANGI and GANDHARBA

"Sarangi" is a Nepalese musical instrument and the people who sing and play such music is known as "Gaine" and the whole community or their group is known as "Gandharba". It is usually sung remembering the sad moments and the pain related to anyones life, but not only limited to the sadness and is also used in different other songs and occasions. It is made out of wood and has four strings attached and works similar to a violin.
The songs are very heart touching and brings goosebumps and sometimes also tears to my eyes!!!! you can watch one of such songs by going to the link below. ENJOY!!!!!
