Most people recognize the sound of the sitar, but few know what makes it so distinctive.
The sitar uses a system of sympathetic strings that vibrate along with the main playing strings. This creates the rich, resonant sound that defines Indian classical music.
Because of this design, every note produces layers of resonance, giving the instrument its meditative tonal character.
At The Pink Lotus Academia, students explore both the technique and the musical tradition behind instruments like the sitar.
