Harib (Surnāī, Sur-na)

This harib is a very old double-reed instrument from Ladakh in the north of India. The wooden body is handmade and has ten frontal tone holes as well as a thumb hole between the first and second tone hole. The six thread wrappings protect the body against cracks; sheet metal and brass rings are attached to the upper and lower ends.
