May his soul rest in peace.<br /><br />While on that, I think you and other readers here might find it interesting to know that sitars in the past have had tumbas made of several interesting materials, including ostrich eggs and nautilus shells! (keep in mind that there are no ostriches in India, so it's unlikely that these were locally sourced). I was surprised when I saw these at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Here is a short album of the Indian instruments I saw at the museum: http://www.flickr.com/photos/21146854@N00/sets/72157635130905933/Priyesh Narayananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06067900561320003519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1173634900517696899.post-89315648601889659092013-08-19T10:44:20.131+05:302013-08-19T10:44:20.131+05:30Just a few weeks ago I was looking for a comprehen...Just a few weeks ago I was looking for a comprehensive article that explains how sitars are made to link with this image (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=702852893064114&set=a.413031978712875.114894.137010586315017&type=1&theater) but found an incomplete one that did not explain the steps involved in growing and selection of gourds. <br /><br />Thanks for this wonderful post. I think it is important to have this information online simply because the sitar itself it a work of art and so many music lovers will be thrilled to read this. claytonia viceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01700112193424567973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1173634900517696899.post-66176441130177204212013-08-19T06:28:17.422+05:302013-08-19T06:28:17.422+05:30What a wonderful post!
