{"product_id":"rudra-veena","title":"Rudra Veena","description":"\u003cp\u003eRudra Veena is one of the oldest instruments of Indian sub-continent. According to mythology, Rudra Veena was created by Lord Shiva or Rudra. It falls into the category of tata vadya meaning string instrument. In north India it is also called bin. The structure of the Rudra Veena can simply be defined as a fret board or stem made from bamboo mounted on two large gourds. It is held in slanting position. The upper gourd rests upon the left shoulder and the lower gourd on the right knee. The strings are plucked with the fingers of the right hand, the left hand passing round the stem and stopping the strings over the frets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRudra Veena was very popular during the Mughal period. Thereafter the art of playing was preserved and nourished by beenkars who were descendants of the famous musician Tansen.
